I am in Boston MA. It looks like we must use cast iron to replace damaged cast iron section. I have a 4" cast iron sewer pipe on basement. There is a 3ft long crack in one vertical section, starts 1ft above the ground just above the hub.
Just want to gain some knowledge about what is the professional way to replace it. With cast iron to cast iron,
1. do we must use lead to seal it in the hub join? can we use the same way as PVC to cast iron hub join? http://www.*********.com/webapp/wcs...3&productId=100372311&N=10000003+528076+90039
2. on another end without hub, can we use the same way as PVC to cast iron by using Fernco's flexible pipe adaptors. http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=productDetail&productId=139996-33599-RNHP100&lpage=none
thanks,
