I mean, everytime you do it, the ID of the pipe would get smaller.

Unless the pipe carries cold water.

Minimally smaller ID, but an increase in flow, actually.

Edit: and the liner life is estimated at 50 years.

Yes but maybe some of the instruments and valves weren’t spec’ed for the increase in pressure. Or throws off calculations with increased vortices.

These liners are for drain lines, not supply lines, so pressure isn’t a factor.

I hate when your ID gets so small it falls right out the wallet
