Nu Flows experienced and certified team are able to line plumbing pipes in all weather, including freezing temperatures. Most property owners are under the impression that pipe lining can only take place when the temperature is above freezing, the good news is that pipes can be lined in any weather conditions.

The company takes cold weather epoxy lining seriously, implementing protocols when installing liners and coatings to pipes that are exposed to the elements. Even when the weather drops to below 32 degrees, you can still have your plumbing pipes rehabilitated and repaired, you don't have to wait until spring.

The Nu Flow certified contractors are trained in cold weather installations, which means that the pipe lining is safe and the repairs are effective. There are some concerns which need to be addressed when it comes to installing epoxy pipe lining in below freezing temperatures, which includes the epoxy freezing, along with the pipes.

Frozen epoxy won't mix or coat very well, it also doesn't saturate the felt pipe liner,. Then there are frozen pipes, when the temperatures drop below freezing, the epoxy may not adhere property to the main pipe, which can cause bulges and wrinkles. The Nu Flow technicians have experience keeping the pipes and epoxy at the right temperature throughout the installation process, ensuring the correct adhesion and installation.

Tom Bowers, the President at Nu Flow, said “Once the lining process is completed and cured, temperature isn't a problem anymore. The liner or coating on the host pipe has already fused to create a pipe lining. Our certified plumbers are able to use a range of methods when it comes to installing epoxy pipe lining to ensure the area remains warm. This can include a tent to work in with supplemental heating to using an outbuilding or trailer or they can simply heat the host pipe, keeping it warm throughout the installation process.”

When temperatures are cold, it can take a bit longer for the liner to cure in place. To reduce curing time, the team use hot water, air or steam to keep the pipe temperature constant, preventing the epoxy and pipe from freezing.
