Stormwater Cured in Place Pipe
Navigating Stormwater Services
Cured in Place Pipe (CIPP) is a type of non-invasive pipe repair using resin to cure a liner along a damaged pipe. CIPP is a cost-effective choice for disjointed pipelines as it seals cracks, eliminating leaks. The repair can be performed in wet or dry conditions while most other repair methods require dry environments. CIPP is also acceptable as patchwork and does not require the entire stormwater pipe to be relined.
The CIPP Process
There are various methods of pipe repair depending on the type of existing pipe and how severe the damage is. Cured in Place Pipe Repair is the process of a liner being inserted into a failed pipe and cured into place. The liner then becomes rigid and acts as the new, structurally sound pipe. To properly perform this repair, the pipe must be cleared of debris, this is done with industrial vacuummation and jetting. CIPP repair is appropriate for pipelines that are still intact.
CIPP Repairs the Following Issues
Infiltration
Fractures
Exfiltration
Root Intrusion
Corrosion
The camera investigation showed leaching as external water seeped into the stormwater pipe. Additionally, joints had separated and fractured allowing a flow of groundwater to enter and carry high levels of contaminants downstream.
