Crew visibility limited to a single 24-hour period

The use of pre-chlorination, which saves costs associated with the installation of temporary services

Services are disconnected prior to pipe bursting taking place, and ready to be reconnected the same day of construction

Benefits related to the use of HDPE (preferred pipe material):

• Improved flow rates - C factor of 150 for life of the pipe

• IPs and DIPs size pipes - DIPs allows for easy coordination with maintenance and operation divisions of local municipalities

• Zero Leaks

• Electro-fusion or ductile iron fittings for mains and service connections

• Butt fusion for connection segments of HDPE above ground prior to burst

  • Fusible PVC

Production up to 400’ of pipe installed in less than 2-hours

Surgical excavations along project corridor, with a reduction in restoration of up to 85

Considerable time savings compared to open cut methods, significantly decreasing customer impact and site and surface restoration

Minimal affects to traffic patterns in the construction area

Lower environmental impact than traditional water pipe rehabilitation/replacement services

Decreased costs to the municipality responsible for maintaining the pipes, which ultimately lowers consumer costs

Ability to increase the original line diameter by several pipe sizes, increasing the capacity and operational life span of the new installation

Total pipe replacement, including the installation of a new line which is structurally independent of the original line

Increased worker and site safety due to minimal excavation requirements

Ability to replace asbestos cement pipe without having to adhere to special removal procedures
