WHY CLAY PIPE?

In any environmentally conscious community, public well-being and economic growth depend, to a large measure, on the proper installation of a reliable sanitary sewer system. The complexity of modern sewer design and construction represents a challenge to professional engineers and concerned citizens alike. This general guide to a trouble-free sewer system is intended to provide insight into the economics of sound sanitary planning and investment.

LONGEVITY

On the surface, a less expensive substitute pipe material might appear to be the better buy. But once underground, it could be more costly should the pipe fail prematurely and require replacement.

StRUCTURAL INTEGRITY

Vitrified clay pipe is a rigid material and is not subject to the problems of deflecting or flattening under load. The characteristics of clay pipe remain constant due to its inherent physical properties.

CORROSION RESISTANCE

Corrosion resistance is one of the most important factors in the selection of sanitary sewer pipe since corrosion is one of the principal causes of pipe failure.
