Leaks Are Gone At Sulphur Springs Elementary School

WATER PIPES IN NEED OF ATTENTION . 

The Hillsborough School District and the school officials at Sulphur Springs Elementary in Tampa were plagued by leaks and low pressure in the aging water piping of this historic campus. Replacing all the water piping would mean tearing out walls and floors. Instead, Hillsborough School Officials once again chose the neater, cleaner, and non destructive ePIPE System from Florida Pipe-Lining Solutions. This unique and Patented epoxy barrier coating system restored the galvanized and copper pipes to a like-new condition without the destruction, mess, and remodeling associated with re-piping. 

THE FIX FROM Florida Pipe-Lining Solutions AND ePIPE 

The Senior Project Engineer from FPS first surveyed all the piping in the 7 buildings and then planned a complete ePIPE restoration of the existing galvanized and copper water piping. As Florida’s Leader in pipe restoration, providing our clients with the highest quality service, workmanship and safety is our mission.

Holder of 8 Patents, the ePIPE coating provides a durable porcelain like finish that prevents rust and leaks from returning, and also reduces lead from leaching into the school’s water. After the piping was cured, the newly restored piping was put back on line and the entire system tested and put back into service.
