Independently owned, well-established NuFlow are certified contractors, implementing NuFlow technology to repair indoor and outdoor pipelines, using innovative, patented technology and non-invasive procedures. Pipe repair is done by using the PIP pipe lining method, utilizing existing access points to insert a flexible liner into straight pipes or pipelines with multiple bends.
NuFlow began using epoxy-lining technology as a contractor to the US Navy aboard carrier vessels. Being a highly successful method, this innovative technology is now used on land, underground installations and high-rise buildings.
Cured-in-Place-Pipe (CIPP) lining, an innovative repair method, uses trenchless rehabilitation and restoration, suitable for variable plumbing systems, including sanitary sewer and drainpipes, roof and storm drain systems, vertical sanitary systems, potable water pipes, water risers and water mains, greywater systems, VAC systems, fire suppression, conduit piping and compressed air systems. NuFlow is able to do installations in pipelines measuring less than 2 inches to over 12 inches in diameter.
According to Tom Bowman, the President of NuFlow, “Pull-in-place method of repair as well as internal pipe coating, is an innovative technique, which simplifies an intricate procedure. It is now possible to repair pipes with a smaller diameter easily, indoors as well. Indoor damaged infrastructure can be repaired without constraints. Precision engineering of PIP also accesses existing pipes by means of current access points. The liner is extremely flexible and can be inserted into small diameter pipes with several bends effortlessly.”
NuFlow offers the optimal solution to any intricate and problematic plumbing systems and delivers an excellent specialized service to residential homes, apartment buildings, condominiums, commercial buildings, senior living communities, universities and schools, hotels and resorts, hospitals, and industrial facilities.
Technicians examine remote CCTV camera footage of damaged pipeline systems to decide on the necessary plan of action. Breaks, blockages and cracks will be revealed via cameras inserted through manholes and other access points.
After cleaning the system with specialist tools, the pipelining process can start. A textile liner is coated with an epoxy-based resin mixture with hardening elements, which is inserted into the pipe by means of air pressure. The resin, being on the outside of the liner, will settle against the original pipe wall. A bladder that is inflated is inserted into this flexible tube and forces the resin to the sidewalls.
The flexible lining can be inserted around corners and bends. A calibration tube is inserted for the curing process to take place. The curing agent will activate the resin, which in turn will harden. Once the lining has settled, the bladder is deflated and removed. This forms a new inner pipe, which is smooth, durable, and resistant to corrosion and is a perfect solution for drain and pipe repair, as well as potable water pipe rehabilitation.
About Us:
NuFlow, the US-based innovative industry leader for small diameter pipe restoration and lining, was granted an exclusive license in 2006 by APL to utilize all technologies and patent rights. This made NuFlow the only licensed pipe and rehabilitation company, manufacturing and installing multiple technologies for pressurized and non-pressurized systems.
The acquisition of APL in 2007 put them way ahead of the pack. Specializing in all pipe repairs, sewer pipe repair, lead pipe replacement, pipe reclining, and internal pipe coating, with minimum disruption, NuFlow is the company of choice, completing the job speedily with well-trained staff, at competitive prices.
