Benefits
- Improve water quality
- Enhance flow and efficiency
- Decrease costs
Aging water mains cost municipalities hundreds of millions of dollars each year in maintenance, repair, and replacement costs, not to mention shutdowns. In addition, decaying ductile iron, cast iron, and steel pipes have tuberculation, corrosion, and biological build up that cause water quality issues. USG Water Solutions offers a trenchless, efficient, and long-lasting solution to reinforce aging underground pipe systems.
Challenges
- Water quality
Aging pipes can be plagued with heavy tuberculation, biological buildup, and corrosion. - Disruption
Water main replacement usually requires costly road or sidewalk excavation. - Cost
Decaying pipes require more maintenance and pumps have to work harder because of corrosion and mineral buildup.
