    It is a great thing to have your game. It would be a great mess if you had hit the main with the bucket.

    I’m impressed to see you used an attachment and a regular drill to do the wet tap. Here in Canada we use a direct tap tool which it’s obviously not needed for PVC mains. Could you tell me the name of that attachment you use to tap the main.
    Btw, awesome job!

      Many brand does the attachement... Ford SIMTAP, Aquatap, Footage t752, Reed, and we used them in Canada to, they work on Ductile Iron

      @@fredericduff6391 ah the footage t752 direct tap is the most widely used here in Toronto by contractors but it’s good to see Ford SIMTAP at work. I’m assuming that’s the one used in the video. Thanks for mentioning the other brands, I googled them and as the saying goes, you learn something new everyday. 👍

      How does that work. It just defies all sense. Every plumber I see does, all say it works but its baffling as to WHY it works.

    does someone there need a plumbers license for you to do this type of work?

    What’s your wet tap setup? Never seen anyone tap with a battery powered drill before, only with one of those huge drilling machines. I guess it depends on the material though because that drill probably wouldn’t make it through A.C. Or ductile iron pipe

      Look up AquaTap or the Reed Feed Tap. But I personally 100% recommend the AquaTap it’s way better. There is a video on here
