Inserting plastic liners in distribution mains
The insertion of plastic pipe in deteriorated steel mains has been an alternative to conventional trenching in the gas industry for more than 20 years. The Pacific Gas and Electric Company has been inserting plastic in its distribution systems for approximately 10 years. If a reduction in pipe diameter can be tolerated and certain other criteria are satisfied, pipe replacement by plastic insertion in water mains can result in considerable savings to the water industry.
