A live valve insertion is a specialty gate valve directly into an existing water or waste water main,
while the existing pipeline is under working pressure, without
interruption of flow or service.
Live Valve Insertions
This is the world's newest and most complete valve
insertion system currently available with sizes 4"-16" and larger sizes
coming soon. With easy installation and operation in conjunction with
being the economical option on the pocketbook versus the alternatives,
this system obsoletes other methods of installing a valve under
pressure.
There is NO tapping machine required, NO coupon to
drop, or NO heavy equipment to transport and move around the job site or
operate. The valve can be installed in just a few hours,
making it the fastest, most economical, easiest to operate and most
reliable permanent valve insertion system available.
Instead of performing a traditional tap, the
EZ Valve System only mills a small 1.625" slot 120 degrees
across the top of the main, ensuring that the pipe maintains its
original integrity, while providing rigid support for the valve
gate. With over 14,000+ successful installations worldwide, it
is the premier choice for professional valve installations!
