Cutting a Cast Iron Drain / Vent Pipe
I have a 4 inch Cast Iron Drain pipe that is in the wall and runs into the floor in the basement. It has 2 toilets and a sink and shower that drain into it.
I need to replace the pipe with PVC. It is from just above the basement floor (built into a side wall) and runs all the way through the roof for vent. Other than in the attic, it is contained in a wall. I can only get to it from one side.
What can I use to cut it. I have read about snap cutters and ratchet cutters, but I'm not sure I have room to use them. I don't really understand how they work either.
What are my options?
Thanks for your help.
