Stanwood Bridge Pipe Rehabilitation
 When 840 feet of 10-inch diameter wielded steel water pipeline was leaking beneath a bridge, professionals in Stanwood, Washington chose Thermopipe® pressure pipe lining system to solve their problem. The Thermopipe® system was able to negotiate a total of eight 45° bends and renew the pipeline.
Thermopipe® is a thin reinforced polyethylene liner that is ideally
suited for rehabilitation of distribution water mains and other
pressurized piping systems of up to 12 inches in diameter. Supplied as
a factory-folded “C” shape liner, the Thermopipe® is winched into the
host pipe from a reel and reverted with air and steam. Once inflated
and heated, the liner forms a close-fit within the host pipe, creating
a jointless, leak-free lining system able to independently carry the
full system internal design pressure. The installation process is
simple and can usually be completed within an 8-hour time period.
In addition to potable water distribution mains, Thermopipe® may be suitable for:
• Sewer force mains
• Fire water mains
• Industrial pressure applications
