Water Damage Services, the Nuflow licensee for the Western Cape, has started rehabilitation work – incorporating new technology – on the City of Cape Town’s corroded pipes. The project, which started on 8 December 2014, aimed to cut the city’s water loss as a result of corroded pipes by thousands of metric litres.
The non-invasive technology used compressed air to pull or push reinforced epoxy into position to rehabilitate the inner infrastructure of corroded pipes instead of excavating the building to gain access to the plumbing, explained Water Damage Services’s Jerome Gray.
