Sewer force mains and gravity sewer lines can both be installed using HDD in many Alabama applications. This article explains the considerations and best practices for HDD sewer line installation.

HDD for Sewer Force Mains in Alabama

Sewer force mains (pressurized sewer lines) are excellent candidates for HDD installation. Unlike gravity sewer, force mains can follow a curved HDD path and can be installed at varying depths. Boring Bros LLC installs HDPE sewer force mains using HDD throughout Alabama, often for road crossings and river crossings where open-cut is not feasible.

Challenges of HDD for Gravity Sewer in Alabama

Gravity sewer requires precise grade control and is more challenging to install by HDD than pressure lines. Specialized guidance systems and careful drill path design can achieve the required grade tolerances in some situations. Our team evaluates each project to determine if HDD is viable for gravity sewer applications.
