Connecting to a Rising main
Connecting to a Rising main
(OP)
Have been approached regarding connecting a 2nd pipeline into a proposed foul Sewer Main. - I can only see this occuring by several ways:
1. connecting the extra pipes under pressure using another pump station.
2. finishing the first pumped section into a wet well then using a 2nd pump station to pump all flows plus new flows onwards.
Is there any way of having a connecting section of pipe to the main rising main trunk without having to build another pump station?? Can anyone shed some more light on this subject??
Thanks
