NuFlow is a leading trenchless pipelining repair specialist that offers its services to a global customer base. They cater to business and residential clients with the help of their approved plumbing partners. One of the most recent projects completed using their high-tech pipelining equipment was a mail sorting facility in Nevada that required major repairs. The team identified that pipelining was the best alternative to fix the pipe problems while enabling the staff to continue their daily service at the post office.

Mail delivery is a twenty-four-hour operation, therefore it was a serious concern when a mail sorting facility in Nevada started experiencing some serious plumbing issues. They required major repairs with minimal disruption to their teams, ensuring they could continue their round-the-clock production. The building had outdated plumbing and infrastructure was causing some serious problems that needed to be addressed urgently.

Closing down for repairs was not an option with thousands of homes and businesses relying on the mail sorting facility to provide them with their post daily. It was obvious that the pipe required a major overhaul. The pipe system was located under the concrete subfloor with mechanical equipment that spans over five thousand square feet. Pipe replacement was not an option, as it would seriously disrupt operations and could take months to complete.

Tom Bowman, the President at NuFlow, said “Pipelining was the best alternative to fix the problems without causing daily disruption to the team. It required an expert in the rehabilitation of old pipes. They called NuFlow to complete the project in a timely and professional manner using our patented pipeline equipment and technology.”

Every project completed by NuFlow starts with a thorough camera inspection. This is done throughout the entire pipe system, finding the problems and creating a map of the infrastructure with a detailed assessment. In this case, a phased approach was chosen to tackle this large project, which started with the cleaning and clearing of the pipes, and removing sludge and debris buildup.

Once this was completed, the expert NuFlow team lined the pipes with a patented epoxy resin, that creates a strong “pipe within a pipe.” This new internal barrier is resistant to corrosion and breaks, offering a long life span. The team lined more than one thousand four hundred linear feet of cast iron pipe of various sizes. The project was completed on time and helped the mail sorting facility continue its daily operations without any major disruptions.
