Did you catch this weeks vlog?! Mayhem ensued. But luckily we got it patched up pretty quick!

What happens here

A new, appropriate section of pipe is prepared to replace the damaged part. The video highlights the use of 'Macdonald fittings' (which are compression-style repair couplings) to connect the new pipe segment to the existing pipe. This involves sliding the fittings onto the pipe ends and tightening them to create a secure, watertight seal. A person is seen working in the trench, indicating the active installation of these components.

Goal: Insert a new section of pipe and secure it with specialized connectors (e.g., Macdonald fittings) to restore the integrity of the water line.

What they say

Now, this is training. Palmer showed up real quick. Cut off a little piece of that. He's going to go get some fittings and hopefully we'll have the water back on. Beautiful. Yeah. It's like it never happened. And what kind of fitting is that? What is that called? A Mac fitting. Macdonald. All right. Not McDonald's. a Macdonald.
