Hello there, I'm about to redo my 5ank plumbing for the first time. Never did that before.

The system that is in place today is hard to remove, I'll have to cut the pipes to get out the bulk heads...

See there:

What would be the best way to attach the pipes to the bulk heads down there? Are they best secured glued or is there a safe way to vise joint them? Anything else?

How would you plumb this?


Thanks a lot!!!
 
Not too sure what you are ultimately trying to accomplish down-there-below, but if the pipes coming down from the bulkheads are a) glued in place, and b) not leaking, can you just keep that section in place and make your modifications further down? Short of totally redoing the whole system, basically a tear-out involving taking out and replacing the bulkheads as well, why risk a leak?
