Using Nu Flow For Pipe Lining

Nu flow liners are designed to maintain or restore liquid flow in piping. It provides an important barrier between pipe walls and liquid. It stops leaks, bridges gaps and closes holes in piping. It is installed using an effective process for coating the inside of galvanized and copper piping. It is the epoxy pipe lining technology that makes it so effective.

Pipe Corrosion

This is something that happens to all kinds of piping systems. Pipe corrosion begins the minute the system starts being used. This is a natural form of deterioration. There are adverse effects that come with corrosion build-up. Drinking water can become colored, taste bad or smell bad as a result. It can also lead to poor water flow as well as heat transfer. Pinhole leaks can develop that cause high levels of chlorine exposure. Nu Flow epoxy lining is a long-term solution. It can prevent breaks, blockages, mold growth and more.

Piping Process

Once the piping is mapped and spot-checked, the pipes are dried with compressed air that is heated. Then an abrading agent that is safe will be forced through the piping system. This will eliminate rust and corrosion. The eliminated products collect in a holding unit and are disposed of at a later time. The compressed air is used in the piping system a final time. This will remove any fine particles that may still be present. Before the epoxy coating is applied, the optimal internal surface temperature will be created in the piping. An air pressure leak is done. Conditioned air is put into the piping, and the epoxy coating is evenly distributed in the piping segment. Once the coating application is complete, controlled air is put into the piping so epoxy curing can occur.

These liners are able to span a void if some sections of old piping are missing. They are chemical resistant. The liners were tested. They were able to withstand being immersed with chemicals such as hydrochloric acid for up to three months. The resin bonds easily with PVC hot pipes, cast, concrete and more. It is able to save customers both time and money because no surface restoration is required. Underground piping can be replaced without affecting any surface material.
