There are
many reasons that you might opt for a trenchless sewer line replacement for
your plumbing. It preserves your property and creates a sewer line that is
stronger, more effective and durable. However, is it the most efficient choice
for your needs? With this information, you will know the efficiency of
trenchless sewer line replacement for energy consumption, overall expense and
water.

Property
Repair

These days,
a lot of people are concerned about their carbon footprint. This relates not
just to the energy you consume, but the energy consumption tied to everything
that you use or buy. For example, if you opt to have a traditional sewer line
installed instead of a trenchless sewer line
replacement,
you will consume a fair bit of energy to dig the new trench, remove the old
pipes and lay new ones. There is some energy consumption for trenchless sewer line
replacement, but it often requires less work and machinery. If digging a trench
will also rip up significant portions of your landscape, you will also need to
expend energy to replace or repair the landscaping.

Cost
Efficiency

Trenchless
sewer line replacement may cost as much as 30-50 percent more than installing a
completely new system with new trenches. Ask your Sacramento plumber for specific
estimates. However, there are many costs involved that you should take into
consideration. For example, if you have to rip out your driveway and pay for
someone to repave it, you are facing a significant expense. The destruction of
landscaping may take years to rebuild, depending on the development of the
existing plant life. Many people who choose trenchless sewer line replacement
find that it is cheaper in the long run to pay extra for the trenchless
approach, with minimal effect on the surface property.

Risk
of Pipe Damage and Leaking

As a general
rule, a trenchless sewer line is a very efficient means of water transport.
Your plumber in Sacramento, CA, creates a sewer line in one piece, which means
that there are no joints to become weak and leak. In fact, the new piping is
less likely to be broken by tree roots and other invaders. As a result, a
trenchless replacement is often more efficient for the long-term. Even if you
have to use the pipe-bursting method of trenchless sewer line replacement, it
should not cause significant risk of damage. Weigh this against your old
system, and you may discover that you can improve efficiency no matter which
choice you make.

The decision
to have trenchless sewer line replacement has a lot of benefits, efficiency
being one of them. If trenchless sewer line replacement is appropriate for your
home and sewer line, you may appreciate the greater efficiency in energy usage,
