HDPE pipes are becoming a standard material used in creating pipe systems in the UAE. Their resistance to the harsh climate of the country along with easy access and flexible installation, makes them a very attractive choice for creating a piping system for any business.
While in terms of ease of installation, HDPE pipes rank the highest, there are still some challenges that may arise when trying to do the HDPE pipeline installation process. These challenges are important to overcome and the best way to do so is by knowing beforehand what to expect from the process.
So, let us look at the common challenges faced in the HDPE pipeline installation in the UAE.
HDPE is a great material for the harsh climate of the UAE if the quality of the HDPE that you work with is good. Different contractors provide different qualities of HDPE to their clients and depending on the quality of the HDPE used in the HDPE pipeline installation, the effectiveness of the pipeline will be affected.
To ensure that the quality of the HDPE being used is up to the standards, make sure to ask for certifications that prove that the HDPE is within the standard quality of the UAE.
A common issue that also plagues HDPE pipeline installation is the lack of proper fitting of pipes with each other. This is a major problem as if the connection between the HDPE pipes is not proper, then this leaves open spaces for sand and sunlight to directly make contact with the liquid being transported.
This eliminates the main advantage that HDPE pipes are supposed to provide to the business of keeping the liquids safe from external hazards of Dubai.
Not every HDPE pipeline installation will follow the same steps as each pipeline is different from the other. To create a pipeline system that is best suited to your business, a proper plan is needed to ensure that each piece of the system fits in correctly.
Sadly, many installations suffer issues here if the plan does not accommodate every element that can affect the final version of the pipeline which can result in damage to the pipes or damage to equipment placed close to it.
While it is rare, HDPE pipes can break or get blocked which requires repairs to restore the pipeline’s functionality. To indicate when the pipeline is in need of repairs, several HDPE pipeline installation processes involve installing certain indicators that can be easily looked at to tell if a pipe needs repairs.
If these indicators are not installed correctly, then this causes issues that can delay the repairs or increase the damage further.
HDPE pipeline installation is easier than other pipeline installations, but businesses should still take all the precautions before installing them for their facilities. So, if you require any assistance with HDPE pipeline installation in the UAE, contact Radius Star Piping today.
