Abstract: A conduit repair system and method are disclosed for repairing ruptures in underground conduits. One embodiment of the system comprises a repair liner including fusible link twine segments and hook and loop fasteners to allow the tautly wrapping of the repair liner around the inflatable bladder of a carrier and to secure the repair liner in place by attaching fusible link twine segments to the leading and trailing edges of a carrier. Another embodiment of the system includes a hook and loop fastener to directly engage the repair liner to the bladder, in combination with a water base releasing agent coated on the bladder, with or without the use of the fusible link twine segments.
