My wife and I are building a house in Krabi, and we are getting some things together to bring. I have a box of tools and some odds and ends we'll need (my wife will bring these in with her Thai passport).
I just figured out that the PVC pipe fittings in Thailand are straight thread not the tapered threads we use here in the USA which is why everyone has to use so much Teflon tape to keep them from leaking. It's actually hard to believe, but no never mind. :-)
Since I'll be helping/supervising the installation of our water filter from our well to our house, I was planning on bringing a pile of threaded (m and f) fittings and PVC Paste sealant. Hopefully I'll figure out the sizes I'll need in advance.
Does anyone have any specific advice on what I'll need? Will the white USA PVC parts bond with the blue parts in Thailand?
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
