Qualities That Distinguish Pipe Bursting

As America’s infrastructure ages, so too do residential, commercial, and industrial plumbing lines. A typical pipe’s lifespan is 50 years, but tree roots, shifting soil, and a high water table may shorten that lifespan. When significant damage leaves a pipe unable to handle all of the wastewater, pipe bursting is a wise method for replacing it.

At Pow-R Mole Trenchless Solutions, our pipe bursting equipment offers many benefits to plumbing companies and their customers.

Environmentally Friendly and Sustainable

Pipe bursting is a mechanical process that doesn’t require the use of chemicals. Hydraulic pumps power the pipe bursting heads, and they’re able to run on clean fuel for safety and sustainability. With no mixing of chemicals or extensive soil removal required, there’s little risk of harm to the property where the repair takes place.

Fast Results

When a gas, water, or sewer line fails, timely repairs are essential to human health and safety. Home and business owners can’t wait for days or weeks for service to be restored. With our adaptable and efficient pipe bursting supplies, a new pipe can be installed in less than a day.

Long-lasting and Cost-effective

Instead of repeatedly patching small areas of damage to a pipe, the bursting process is often more cost-effective. Customers won’t have to worry about any issues with the pipes for many decades. After pipe bursting is complete, the pipe will have a lifespan of at least 50 years.

Pipe bursting allows your plumbing company to efficiently get rid of old pipes and install new, fully operational units in their place. It works on obsolete and failed gas, water, and sewer lines, making your investment in pipe bursting materials and equipment a wise one.
