Client Objective
Repair pressurized leaking pipeline with multiple bends while preserving residential landscapes.
Overview
Advantage Reline successfully rehabilitated a 200-foot section of pressurized 10-inch pipeline in Ladera Ranch, California. The project involved replacing a deteriorating pipeline system experiencing active leaks and structural degradation in a residential environment where property preservation was paramount. Using specialized trenchless technology, the team installed a monolithic, non-corrosive pipe system designed for 100-year service life while enhancing earthquake resistance and system reliability.
Challenges
The project presented significant technical complexities due to multiple sharp 45-degree bends throughout the 200-foot section and joint deflection caused by ground subsidence. The existing structural degradation had compromised system integrity, creating active leaks that required immediate attention. The residential setting added complexity, requiring minimal disruption to established yards and landscaping while meeting stringent performance standards including 150 PSI operation and enhanced earthquake resistance for California's seismic conditions.
Solution
Advantage Reline addressed these challenges using specialized trenchless technology that precisely pulled the replacement pipe through the existing pipeline and its multiple bends, minimizing excavation and preserving residential properties. The team installed a monolithic, non-corrosive pipe system designed for 100-year service life with enhanced earthquake resistance to meet California seismic standards. The project concluded with rigorous air pressure testing to verify system integrity at 150 PSI, successfully resolving all pipeline issues while delivering a resilient infrastructure solution that exemplifies innovative trenchless rehabilitation methods.
"Advantage Reline with Primus Line® completed the job with excellence."
