• We are committed to
• Operating efficiently to deliver quality water
  and wastewater products and services to a growing
  population, while protecting our unique
  environment and acknowledging our
  responsibilities to the communities we serve.

• Water - A Scarce Resource
• Increasing water usage due to population growth.
• The effects of climate change (including extended
  periods of drought).
• The huge cost to develop new water infrastructure
  (such as dams and stormwater management
  systems).
• The impact of stormwater runoff on the
  environment. If we are to ensure a sustainable
  water supply for the future, it is critical that
  we limit water consumption and develop smarter
  ways to harness our water resources.

• CURRENT METHOD OF CONNECTION OF PVC TO REINFORCED
  CONCRETE PIPE (R.C.P)

Toilet Pan Collar connected to 100mm PVC.
PVC pipe mortared into main RCP.
Only partially fits and does not seal internally,
easily dislodged with any movement
Mortar once dried, cracks and does not adhere
well to PVC. Once mortar breaks the pipe can move
in or out of the pipeline
5

• Break in made to reinforced concrete pipe
  (R.C.P.) showing reinforcement wire exposed
  internally and externally.

6

• When the PVC pipe is inserted to the main barrel
  drain no predetermined depth can be ensured.

Standard Entry When mortar seal Has not dried
before Back Filling Main Drain Resulting in
Blockages
7

• Various methods applied externally in an attempt
  to seal externally only (mortar, paper, ad hoc
  fittings and large backfill material)
• No internal seal is ever made!

• RISKS EFFECTS CCTV Has shown significant
  numbers of such applications where external seals
  FAIL!
• Both Backfill, Water and the PVC pipe penetrate
  the main barrel drain (R.C.P), resulting in a
  blockage and a significant loss of water.

9

• Infiltration of trench materials can cause R.C.P.
  to block and effect flow rates.
• Subsurface backfill leaking into pipelines has
  been known to cause damage to finished surface
  levels weakening surface structures.

10

• As shown by CCTV, internally exposed
  reinforcement rusts which ultimately results in
  reduced asset life of the pipeline.

11

• Councils have required contractors to rectify
  these defective connections when found using
  CCTV. Additional work on site to rectify and
  reinstall often causes complaints from residents
  and contractors, with delayed completion dates
  and significant loss of profits.

12

• Without CCTV inspections, councils cannot be
  confident of effective connections and desired

• Each CONCONECTTM is supplied fully assembled with
  inspection cap.
• CONCONECTTM ensures the R.C.P. pipe is fully
  sealed BOTH internally and externally, eliminates
  backfill erosion and infiltration. Reduces the
  possibility of corrosion to reinforcement
  associated with the current methods.

• CONCONECTTM finally delivers a connection that
  seals internally and externally FIRST TIME, EVERY
  TIME leaving no exposed reinforcement.
• CONCONECTTM can be installed after break in in
  less than a minute thus reducing labour costs.

21

• Contractors now have a cost effective product
  which will ensure storm water connections are
  successful
• First Time
• Every Time
• With Confidence.

22

• Councils will have peace of mind that if its
  connected by CONCONECTTM, home connections will
  now be fit for purpose.
• The risk of environmental damage such as
  corrosion to roadsides, public and private
  property will be REDUCED.
• CONCONECTTM eliminates the risk of pipe
  penetration, infiltration, blockages and ensures
  INCREASED FLOW RATES!

23

• The first connection designed specifically to
  solve councils and contractors long standing
  concerns with connection methods of R.C.P. to
  UPVC.
• Designed by Australians for Australians.
