Root Intruded Drain Lines Receive Nu Flow Pipe Retrofit


Nu Flow successfully completed a pipe lining project at a historic church without causing destruction or displacement. The system was rehabilitated with the patented Nu Flow process, creating a structurally sound pipe within the existing pipe. Project: Clean and line root intruded drain lines using Nu Flows trenchless, cured-in-place structural liner. Customer and Site: St. Georges Memorial Church, a Christian church which opened in 1924 in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada. System: 172 feet of sanitary drain line extending from the church to the main sewer line and including four 22-degree and two 45-degree bends. Situation: St. Georges Church was experiencing repeated backups throughout the church. Nu Flow inspected their pipes with a specialized drain camera and found that roots had intruded two of St. Georges aging drain lines causing the backups. Old trees located around the building had roots that grew as far as 80 feet into the line.

Nu Flow retrofits drain pipes in place with a liner installed within the existing pipe.

Solution: Nu Flow retrofitted the sanitary drain lines using their structural drain liner. Nu Flow technicians first cleaned the system to remove the roots. Once complete, they inserted a Pull-in-Place structural liner in the existing pipe without digging up the existing pipe. The patented Nu Flow process preserved the structure and eliminated the need for destruction to the historic church. The result is a seamless pipe that will keep roots out and avoid related problems. Root intrusion and backups are common in sanitary and storm drain lines. Fortunately, Nu Flow has an effective trenchless solution. Whether you are experiencing problems now or are interested in preventing the inevitable failure of your plumbing system, Nu Flow is available to restore your peace of mind.
