UV CIPP Lining Team's Record Finish
Founded in 1991, PUCC began specializing in the Ultraviolet (UV) CIPP Lining product in 2010. With a 50-year design life that meets a fully deteriorated design criteria, PUCC crews have installed over 430,000 LF of the UV CIPP fiberglass lining to date. For 2022, PUCC's UV CIPP Lining team installed 43,288 LF, surpassing the 2013 total of 42,370 LF of UV CIPP Lining on record at PUCC as the highest amount of footage installed in a year.
The UV CIPP Lining crew started 2022 in January on the Sanitary Sewer Rehab project in Duncan, OK. "They completed a large amount of footage in the first quarter of the year, says project manager Jeff Conklin, above far right. By mid-March they had installed on the project a total of 13,852 LF of 8", 10" and 15" UV CIPP Lining."
Throughout 2022, the UV CIPP Lining product was used by PUCC crews to rehabilitate sewer pipe for Calhoun, GA, Johnson City, TN, Knoxville, TN, Blue Ridge, GA and other cities and municipalities in need of sewer pipe repair. "Early in December, says Jeff, the crew installed 148 LF of 54" UV CIPP Liner for the City of Tuscaloosa, AL." Thereafter, the crew mobilized to the 2021 CDBG Sewer Improvement project for the Town of Owens Cross Roads, AL. "The project called for pipe bursting, but due to budget constraints, I worked with the engineer to change everything over to UV CIPP, Jeff went on to report. The crew finished out December on the Owens Cross Roads, AL project with a total monthly installation of 3288 LF of 8" UV CIPP Lining which helped finish the year strong."
