Hot Taps -> Services Home
Hot Taps or pressure taps are different names for the same process. Hot Taps allow for a new branch connection without shut down of your piping system.
Hot Taps are performed while your system remains live and under working pressure without any interruption of flow or services. Hot Tap connections can be
performed on a multitude of line contents, such as hydrogen, hot and chilled water, steam, syltherm, natural gas, brine as well as many other elements.
Pro Tapping performs Hot Taps from 3/4" to 36", 360° around the main. Hot Taps are generally performed on carbon, stainless and galvanized steel, copper and brass,
fiberglass and specialized materials used in refineries and pharmaceutical facilities. Hot Taps can be performed on angles, elbows, tanks, vessels and more.

Hot Tapping for Probe and Flow Meter Installations
Pro Tapping provides Hot Taps that allow you the ability to install your probe and flow meters in a live line. The installation of a flow meter in your line allows you to
monitor the temperature, pressure and percentage of a specific product in the line.
Hot Tapping for Thermowell Installations
Thermowells are the most versatile devices used to protect your probe and flow meter sensors from damage. In addition, a defective probe or flow meter sensor may be removed
without shutting down or draining the entire system. Pro Tapping can install your Thermowell through our custom designed and built Thermowell fittings. We maintain an
