Manhole chambers compare to Quick-Pig
Work it out for yourself.
A direct cost comparison for the purchase, installation and 5 years of cleaning for your pressurised sewage pipe – as an editable Excel spreadsheet with your own figures.
The issue
Manhole chamber versus pigging station
Raising mains must be cleaned and inspected regularly. Traditionally, this is done via an inspection chamber – involving structural analysis, planning permission, access to the narrow chamber and extensive earthworks. The Quick-Pig pigging station is installed in the pipe trench using a minimally invasive method, is operated from ground level and requires no chamber structure.
Sounds convincing – but what does that mean in terms of cost for your project?
Manholes
- Structural analysis and planning permission required
- Extensive earthworks, core drilling
- Access via a narrow, poorly ventilated manhole
- Regular refurbishment due to concrete corrosion
Quick-Pig system
- No manhole structure, no planning permission
- Installation in a standard duct trench
- Safe operation from ground level
- PE100 & stainless steel – corrosion-free and durable
What’s inside
Two spreadsheets that tell the whole story.
Based on a real-world DN 160 comparison carried out by an independent engineering firm. Simply enter your figures – the spreadsheet calculates, totals and displays the difference down to the nearest penny.
- Purchase and installation costs (DN 160) in a direct comparison
- 5‑year cost calculation for cleaning methods
- Pigging, pulse flushing, high-pressure nozzle and ICE pigging calculated
- Surcharges for manhole access automatically taken into account
- VAT fields and totals fully formula-based
- Editable immediately – no macros, no registration
Why this Excel list is a real game-changer
Instead of spending hours compiling quotes, you can have a solid basis for decision-making in just 10 minutes – one that will win over your colleagues and stand up to external scrutiny.
