Hello everyone,
for our renovation project (converting an old cattle barn into a residential space), we plan to install the wastewater pipes ourselves within the next three months. All pipes can be connected to an existing three-chamber system.

What should we generally and especially pay attention to?
- avoid using 90-degree bends
- about 1% slope over 2 m (6.5 feet)?

All pipes run inside the building. How deep do we need to lay the pipes?

We want to do everything ourselves and then have an experienced heating engineer inspect it during the final approval.

Oh, and one more question:
Since we will already have the floor open, should/can additional pipes be installed at the same time? For example, empty conduits or similar? Or can the concrete slab be poured immediately after?

Thanks in advance for your help!!!
