## Specialty Technology: HammerHead Bluelight and PB30

Clog Busterz runs two HammerHead trenchless sewer rehab systems in Central Kentucky: Bluelight LED CIPP lining and PortaBurst PB30 pipe bursting. Bluelight can rehabilitate a damaged sewer lateral from inside the pipe when the host pipe still has a usable path. PB30 pipe bursting can replace badly broken, collapsed, or undersized laterals through small access pits.

- **Bluelight process**: Camera inspection -> high-pressure cleaning -> liner installed -> HammerHead blue-wavelength LED cure -> final camera verification
- **PB30 process**: Camera inspection and access planning -> small entry/exit pits -> old pipe burst outward -> new pipe pulled through the existing path
- **Decision rule**: Scope first. Bluelight for lineable pipe, PB30 for replacement, excavation only when trenchless is not the honest fit.

## Warranty & Guarantees

- 1-year labor warranty on all repairs
- 6-10 year manufacturer warranty on installed equipment
