Case study: Water Transmission Line
Objective
An expansion to a Florida Sheriff office complex required a solution that featured an ease-of-installation due to the unique location of the transmission lines. The engineers looked for a solution that provided long-term lifespan plus a cost savings over other pipe system materials.
Solution
HDPE, Inc. was contracted to provide the expertise needed for the fabrication of this unique installation. Although this was new construction, the long pipe runs required a configuration of unusual complexity and design. HDPE, Inc. provided the expertise in configuring the HDPE system design, a custom solution for welding the components, job training and supervision of the contractor’s technicians.
Result
Because the design and existing conditions required the HDPE pipe system to be constructed in a non-typical manner, HDPE, Inc. was able to provide the expertise in solving this complex installation in a cost-effective and time-savings manner. The system was completed and integrated into the HVAC main components with minimal effort, thanks to the planning and field supervision of HDPE, Inc.
