Hi, I need to replace my main going into the house from the meter. I will be using 60 ft of 3/4 poly line as that is what is there now. I have patched it but
the line has busted three times in the last 5 years so this time is replacement.
I do not want to dig tru my yard and I have heard of pulling the new line in as you pull the old one out.
Dig a hole at the meter and one at the house disconnect both and with a nipple inserted into the old line at the house, then the new line (thus connecting them) and drill tru the line and nipple and place two bolts in each side. (pluging the new line first) Then using a wench or a tractor/ truck pull the old line out and at same time the new line in. Also maybe using sopy water as lube?
Any ideas as to if this will work or suggestions??
Thanks
