The Nu Flow Advantage

Nu Flow Benefits:Nu Flow Benefits:•Approximately 2/3rd to 1/2 the cost

•Less tools and equipment

•Utilizes existing accesspoints, which means less destruction

•Pipe system is still functional during our work

•Saves you time, hassle, disturbance

•Reuses the existing pipes, so there is no added waste to landfills

Repipe Drawbacks:Repipe Drawbacks:Expensive, disruptive, time-consuming

Lots of heavy and loud equipment

Requires the failing pipe, pipe line or pipe system, as well as concrete and surrounding dirt to be dug up, which creates a huge mess

Building is not functional during the work

The new metallic pipes are still subject to the same challenges and will continue to experience the same inevitable problemsCustomer must still have workers clean up construction site, repave floors, fix walls and ceilings

Pipes, concrete and dirt go to the landfill

External Approvals / Certifications

• Structural Lining:• NSF/ANSI Standard 14 (ASTM F1216)

• IAPMO R&T (ASTM F1743-96)• Triodem (ASTM D790, ASTM D5813-04)

*Nu Flow maintains rights to 21 patents.

Structural Pipe Lining

Nu Flow Structural LiningNu Flow Structural LiningPull-in-Place Pipe Rehabilitation

Structural Lining Process

1. Camera Inspection to locate cause of failures and identify locations

2. Clean pipes using our pneumatic tools

3. Installation using existing access points

4. Post Camera Inspection

Common Problems for Drain Pipes

• Cracks and holes in pipes that become brittle from corrosion

• Missing bottoms from heavy, corrosive waste

• Debris build-up and obstruction causes limited flow and back-ups

• Root intrusion in underground pipe lines causes back-ups

The Nu Flow Benefit: Structural Liner

• No-Dig Installation• The liner is installed using our patented Pull-in-Place technology which is

inherently better than a traditional repipe• Liner is installed at an access point and is pulled through to another access

point

• The Liner is custom built on-site:• The liner is rolled out and cut• The ends are prepared and the pull end is attached to the cable

• We have a large range in pipe sizes we can work on:• We can line drain pipes from ¾” to 10” and larger, in some cases• Our in-place technology allows us to access pipes our competitors can’t

• Our epoxy prevents future pipe system failures:• Our structural liner covers cracks and holes and helps prevent future root

intrusion, debris build-up, breaches and other problems

VA Marion Hospital

YMCA FT Wayne

Water Supply Line: SeaWorld San Diego

Situation•12” supply line for a dolphin breeding pool continuously leaked from a 3-foot-long crack

•Located 9 feet underground

•Repipe not feasible because the customer did not want the dolphin tank damaged

Benefits of Nu Flow Solution•Technicians used existing access points so the dolphin tank was preserved

•The surrounding landscape and sidewalks were not disturbed

•Our structural liner was installed, creating a seamless, protective pipe within the original host pipe and covers all breaks in the pipe line

Situation

•22-story busy office building in downtown San Diego, California

•8” sewer main was about 40 years old and had corrosion and cracks, which caused failures

• The sewer main is located under the parking garage and nearby streets

Benefits of Nu Flow Solution

•Nu Flow’s trenchless technology preserved the parking garage and streets, preventing disruption and inconvenience

•Our Pull-in-Place structural liner forms a protective pipe within a pipe to serve as a long-term solution to prevent future pipe failures

Sewer Main: 225 Broadway NBC Building

Roof Drains: Eisenhower Executive Office Building

Situation• Original pipes had almost entirely

disintegrated

• Two 70 foot roof drains, each containing a double 45 degree bend

Benefits of Nu Flow Solution• Pipes are protected from corrosion

and other problems with a long-term solution

Situation•3” to 4” horizontal sanitary branch line, located underground, for the Target’s food court constantly experienced low flow and backups

•Pipes located 3.5 feet underground and are about 46 years old

Benefits of Nu Flow Solution•Nu Flow worked at night while Target was closed

•Technicians used existing access points to clean and line the pipes

•We did not have to unplug any equipment or move anything in order to install the pipe liners

•Target and its food court operated normally during the day

•Our structural liner serves as a long-term solution against cracks, low flow and backups

Underground Drain System: Target

Floor Drains: Coca-Cola

Situation• Syrup and high temperatures used in

production caused corrosion of cast iron floor drains

• Equipment removal from the factory and production delay was no option

Benefits of Nu Flow Solution• Completed quickly without shutting

down plant operations

• High Heat and Corrosion Resistant Epoxy was used to ensure problem would not come back any time soon

Potable Water Pipe Restoration

USAGE of POTABLE PIPE LINING TECHNOLOGY

Piping systems from ½-inch to 12-inch diameters above and below ground can be internally cleaned & coated.

• Potable water pipes *• Heating & cooling pipes • Process water pipes• Roof drain piping• Pool supply/drain pipes• Compressed air lines• Galvanized, steel, copper, lead pipes

* Potable water coatings must be NSF-61 approved and certified by the National Sanitation Foundation.

Coating ProcessCoating Process

1. Pipes are warmed with dry, heated air.

2. Coating quantities are calculated based on length and diameter of the pipe.

3. Coating is injected beginning with the smallest pipe and is an overlapping process one pipe at a time.

4. Coating is allowed to cure before reassembly. (Time necessary depends on epoxy type).

5. Maximum coating distances are roughly the pipe size multiplied by 120; i.e. a 3-inch diameter pipe times 120 = 360 LF. Lining in both directions could double the distance.
