HammerHead Trenchless, a leading manufacturer of trenchless installation, rehabilitation, and replacement solutions for underground utility infrastructure, has released the newest addition to their product line: The PortaBurst® PB30X.
The PB30X is a portable, cost-effective and efficient method of replacing 2″ to 6″ lateral pipes in a minimum amount of time, with up to 30 tons of pulling force. “Through extensive research and development, we were able to create a system that is 125 lbs. lighter than its predecessor, while maintaining the same power,” said Mark Randa, Sr. Manager of Research, Development & Engineering of HammerHead Trenchless.
Along with being lighter than HammerHead’s previous downhole unit, the PB30X prioritizes portability and breaks down into three components. According to Randa, this allows for easy carrying into basements and overall transportation of the unit.
Having the PB30X on a jobsite provides versatility as the unit can burst sewer laterals and slit water and gas services. “With a second jaw set and 3/8” cable, this unit can be used to slit plastic and lead water services,” said Randa.
To accompany the new PB30X, HammerHead Trenchless has also released the newest hydraulic control unit, the PB13X. The PB13X comes equipped with a new tethered controller or optional wireless controller to allow the operator to be close to the pit while the control unit is further away. “Our team spent time on with customers on their job sites and saw that flexibility is key to any job site and whether they use the tethered or wireless controller, we now provide that needed flexibility,” said Randa. “Our patent pending jaw system was created to increase speed and efficiency on the jobsite while making the unit versatile to allow for bursting and slitting,” he added.
To continue to provide flexibility to customers, HammerHead is now providing stackable extraction cages and an extended Quick Grip® Burst Head line covering 2-to-6-inch options. “The stackable extraction cages now allow to fully pull in a 6-inch burst head,” said Randa. “And the new burst head line can burst through any fracturable pipe and negotiate 45-degree bends,” he added.
The PB30X, PB13X, and additional components are all available for purchase at hammerheadshop.com

The tool will now allow for quick and easy sizing of commercial heat pump water heaters
A. O. Smith, a leader in water heating and water treatment, announces the addition of commercial heat pump water heater (HPWH) sizing capabilities to its Pro-Size™ tool. This update makes A. O. Smith the only manufacturer to include commercial HPWHs as part of its virtual sizing tool, currently.
The tool can size all commercial products that A. O. Smith offers and can size for almost every type of commercial building, including hotels, office buildings and more. As a one-stop shop, the tool is set to be a time saver for customers who previously required multiple tools to complete different types of projects. Additionally, this new feature provides recommendations for both heat pump water heaters and the corresponding storage tank, reducing the challenges associated with designing a heat pump system.
“Prior to this update, customers had to contact A. O. Smith directly to size commercial HPWHs, which required an investment of time that customers often don’t have. Now, the process can be completed in a few short minutes,” said Ryan Schewe, A. O. Smith application engineering manager. “As commercial heat pumps become an increasingly critical part of the decarbonization movement, it is essential that engineers have quick and easy access to the information they need to properly specify this technology. Now our customers can feel empowered to size commercial HPWHs for their projects.”
Commercial projects that require heat pump technology per the building code, heat pump design specs as part of the building design process or low operating cost domestic hot water systems, can now specify commercial HPWHs with only a few clicks. The improved ease of sizing these units makes it easier for customers to adopt commercial heat pump technology and allows them to take advantage of local HPWH rebates.
This advancement is the first in a series of improvements being made to A. O. Smith’s Pro-Size tool. Customers can expect additional updates to the tool in the coming months. To access the Pro-Size tool and learn more about A. O. Smith’s product offerings, visit www.hotwater.com. Customers can contact A. O. Smith for assistance in using the Pro-Size tool at www.hotwater.com/about-us/contact.
