Avoid a potentially long deep trench with the use of pipe bursting technology.
It is possible to up-size more than one pipe size. Our Anaconda trenchless system will pull with 35 tons of force, making it the strongest of the sewer lateral pipe bursting machines on the market. HDPE (high-density polyethylene) pipe is very strong, and will not damage easily with this process.
HDPE is a much heavier plastic than ABS or PVC, and is fused together resulting in a no-joint line from end to end. It’s superior to cast iron, in that there are no joints where roots can penetrate the pipe.HDPE pipe has a 1,200 year life on it, versus cast iron, with a 150 year life.
If any of these steps is not closely adhered to, getting the pull done can be a much bigger job. Every city has their own individual specifications as to how they want drain pipes to be installed.
