 Lead Service Line Replacement and Rehabilitation

​With over 10 million homes nationwide drinking water through lead service lines, Flow Infrastructure's management team has extensive experience in understanding the monumental task facing Utilities with lead service line replacement programs. From creating the required inventory of service lines to the full replacement, Flow can help develop and execute a strategy that follows the lead copper rule.

The two largest hurdles facing Utilities today are budget restraints and timelines for a 20 to 50-year replacement program. Flow has developed unique multistage programs for both issues that are specific to each Utility and are focused on solving both the utility side as well as the private side of the service line(s).

THE PROCESS


​The Pipe Puller concept is a simple, trenchless technique for pipe replacement.  Firstly, a strong steel pulling cable is fed through the old pipe which is being removed.  The pulling cable has a special pulling attachment on one end and this engages with the old pipe.  The other end of the cable is fixed onto the Pipe Puller spool which is driven by two powerful hydraulic motors.  The spool safely and continuously winds up the pipe as it is removed from the ground and a new copper or polyethylene pipe is towed into place following the same pathway as the old pipe. 
​

The method minimizes the risk of damaging any nearby utilities, removes the environmental hazard from the decommissioned pipe, reduces size of excavations and cost of reinstatement, and, most importantly, it is SAFE for operators and members of the public.

THE PROOF IS IN THE PULL...

​The Pipe Puller is proving a popular trenchless pipe replacement technique with a number of our customers in the USA and Canada.  As a result, thousands of old lead pipes have been removed already and many more are being replaced each day.
