    plumbing advice

    can i have your advice please. tank is 1500x600x600. return inlet is hansen 25mm tank fitting. overflow is 40mm durso on 32mm tank fitting. (return is thru bottom of tank so tank can sit against wall) 1. should i go largest piping possible? (40mm piping has about the same internal dia as 32mm tank fitting and 32mm piping matches 25mm tank fitting in same regard) 2. should i use pressure piping?(i was considering hansen black piping which only comes in short lengths and uses a ''screw bayonet'' type joiner. 3. is standard pvc cement the safest/best? thanks :-? more basic questions to come.........
