Trenchless system for lead pipe replacement goes nationwide

The Kobus pipe puller, an innovative trenchless technique to remove legacy pipework and replace in the same void is going big following being awarded the Abbott Innovative Product Award at the NASTT 2019 No-Dig Show in Chicago in March of this year.

As the only trenchless solution to remove the problem altogether, Kobus is truly unique at a time when there is growing concern over lead in the ground, either in service or otherwise. That’s why the City of Bay City, Michigan, recently bought one of the specially-constructed machines to carry out the Kobus process.
