Mainline Point Repair Janssen Process

Janssen Process Point Repair Fortifies Mainlines

Contractors prefer Janssen because it:

  • Installs with 0% failure rate (no excavation)
  • Uses equipment and consumables that are competitive with less-durable solutions.
  • Lasts the longest, making repairs easier and less expensive to warrantee.
  • Generates daily margins that are up to triple those of conventional rehab technologies.
  • Requires fewer crew members.
  • Uses materials that are more stable and easier to handle.

Cities prefer Janssen because it:

  • Doesn't diminish a pipe's inner diameter.
  • Structurally addresses pipe deterioration by bonding cracks and filling voids.
  • Permanently solves infiltration, root intrusion and ground cavity problems.
  • Requires no line plugging.
  • Prevents future sink holes.
  • Doesn’t interrupt traffic.

Pressure-Injected Resin Fills Cracks and Reestablishes Bedding without Reducing Pipe Diameter.

Janssen Process offers strength and support to deteriorating mainline sections. Fast-curing resins are robotically pressure-injected into pipe cracks, bonding them and filling any cavities around the mainline to eliminate root intrusion and infiltration.

Using Janssen Process, a single truck performs up to 10 point repairs per day. No line plugging or traffic disruption is required, and a 0% installation failure rate means excavation is never necessary. Repair longevity has been documented to 25 years, but is estimated to be 60-80 years. While far more durable than other point repair rehab methods (and thus easier to warranty), this Janssen Process remains cost-competitive in terms of both capital equipment and consumables.

Janssen Process Step-by-Step

A robotic packer is winched into position, where it:

  • Isolates and pressure-seals the mainline pipe segment to be rehabilitated.
  • Injects a fast-curing resin that bonds cracks and fills the voids behind them.
  • Waits 20 minutes for a cure.
  • Verifies the result using onboard cameras.
  • Is winched to the pipe segment.
