The pipe line is no longer leaking onto electrical equipment that is critical for the buildings operation. If the leaks had not been solved, this equipment would have been damaged, costing tens of thousands of dollars in repair, if not more.
- Justin Stoppenbrink, Lead Technician, Nu Flow
Circumvention: Due to the hard-to-access locations of the main line, a traditional repipe would have probably not been feasible. In order to replace the pipes, someone would have to get on top of the 30-foot-high pipe line to work on it, and then find a way to lower the failed sections of pipe without a lift or crane, because they would not be able to fit in the tight space available. The customer recognized these complexities and sought after an innovative solution that could overcome these tight, situational parameters. Solution: Nu Flow created the ideal solution for the customer, but this project still had many challenges, mostly because of the location of the pipe line. Nu Flow technicians first had to rent a lift that could carry the weight of the technicians and equipment in order to access the pipe. Nu Flows patented, in-place, main rehabilitation technology, Nu Main, was installed without causing any destruction to the building or disruption to the tenants. The technicians utilized both existing access points to clean the pipes, then used the Pull-in-Place process to install the epoxy liner. Once the liner cured, a new, seamless, protective pipe formed inside the host pipe, covering all breeches in pipe and preventing new breeches from forming. Two days after the job was completed, Houston was hit by a severe thunderstorm that caused major floods. Thanks for Nu Flows quick and successful work, major damages were avoided to the building and equipment. Property managers and building engineers should not have to jump through hoops in order to repair the propertys crucial pipe systems. Nu Flow takes away the hassle and inconvenience by creating innovative, non-destructive and eco-friendly solutions tailored to your propertys unique situation, ensuring an ideal experience. p/n 573 v1
