A felt tube made of polyester and other materials is pulled into a damaged pipe

The process starts with a felt tube made of polyester and other materials used for pipe lining being pulled into an existing damaged pipe. The liner is usually installed from an upstream excavation point, and very little digging is required. Air or water pressure can be used to invert the liner. Steam, UV light, or hot water can be used to cure the resin in the pipe liner. The remaining liner is corrosion resistant, jointless and fits tightly, ensuring that the existing pipe can continue to function and avoiding the need to completely replace it with more complicated methods.
