Followed Manufacturer's Installation Instructions
Properly Handled and Stored Pipe and Materials
Installed Service Line at the Proper Depth and Undisturbed or well compacted soil
Adequate Clearance from other Underground Facilities
EFV Installed and Applicable
Avoided Excessive Bending and Pipe Deflection
Internally Cleaned Carrier Pipe
Casing Ends were reamed to minimize damage to the carrier pipe; Shims were installed in casing ends around carrier pipe
The leading end of the carrier pipe was closed (sealed) during insertion
Protected Above ground Service Piping from Physical Damage
