A Nu Flow South Africa licensee used the Nu Drain system as an alternative to a destructive, expensive and

intrusive repipe. The customer and residents of a posh apartment building beneted from Nu Flow’s innovative pipe

lining solution.

Project: Rehabilitate an underground sewer main in-place using Nu Drain.

Site: A luxurious, 8-story

apartment building called

Montreux Flats, located on Queen

Victoria Street in Cape Town,

South Africa.

System: An earthenware sewer 

main that is 110mm-wide (4"-

wide). The pipe line is located

beneath a concrete slab that is

more than a meter thick.

Problem: The main sewer pipe

running from the building into

the municipal connection had

continuous blockages. The

customer wanted to rehabilitate

the failing pipe line but did not want

any disruption to the residents.

Circumvention:  A traditional

repipe of the pipe would take

weeks of messy and noisy work,

in addition to inconveniencing

residents entering and leaving the

property.

Solution: Water Damage Services, a Nu Flow South Africa licensee, relined the sewer pipe with the innovative

Nu Drain system. Using existing access points, this Pull-in-Place technology was used to install a structural liner 

without having to chop through concrete slab. The end result is a new pipe-within-a-pipe that will prevent future

failures, such as blockages. The job took a fraction of the time that a repipe would have taken and there wasn’t any

disruption to the residents.

The Nu Drain system permitted this licensee to provide a

convenient, cost-effective solution for the customer.
