WATER SUPPLY PIPES REPLACEMENT IN UNDER 2 HOURS‌ NO MAJOR EXCAVATIONS, MINIMAL DISRUPTION Whether its an unreliable or leaking supply or discovery of lead supply pipes, water supply pipe replacement is not undertaken lightly.
W
ater suppliers can insist on leaking pipes being repaired or replaced, and lead supply pipes are surprisingly common. Although the use of lead in plumbing has been banned in the UK for over 50 years, there are still many properties where lead contamination of water is a risk. Properties built before 1970 would have been constructed with lead water supply pipes, with up to a third of these older properties in the UK still receiving their water through these original lead pipes. Awareness of the potential health problems caused by lead in the water supply, particularly in infants and children is growing and the only totally secure method to
reduce lead levels in the water supply is to replace the original supply with modern plastic pipe. Whilst Grant aid may be available to assist lead pipe replacement programmes, and some water suppliers, such as Welsh Water are providing fully funded lead replacement programmes, the disruption to the householder is enough to deter many from water supply pipe replacement. INSUduct is the only option to provide a fast and effective solution where total supply replacement is required. It can be completed in under 2 hours and with minimal impact on the householder.
