A New Sewer Line Installation requires plans and inspections
The process for installing a sewer line requires a more in-depth approach and more attention than a repair or a replacement. It also requires approved plans detailing the job in order to obtain all the necessary permits. Approved plans and inspections assure that you’ll receive the required sign-offs from the Department of Environmental Protection. Sign-offs usually are available shortly after the installation has been completed. At Empire Plumbers, we will make sure all city inspections have been passed, and that all permits have been acquired. You might be surprised how many times contractors install sewers without proper paperwork or inspections. That leaves you, the owner, without the vital sign-off required for your certificate of occupancy. Always require a copy of the sign-off before paying in full for your new sewer line installation.
Every building will need a sewer line that will connect all wastewater drainage pipes from kitchens, bathrooms, and other utilities to the municipal sewer system. In most cases, provisions will also have to be made for the removal of stormwater runoff. New homes and new commercial buildings will require sewer line installation from experienced licensed local sewer contractors. A sewer line installation for a major alteration or a new building can be a fairly complex process. It requires attention to measurements, slope of a pipe, and substantial excavation to ensure you receive the best results. In many if not most cases dry wells or detention tanks may have to be installed as part of your sewer system.
Selecting the Best Material for NYC Sewer Line Installation
When you are installing a new construction sewer line, it is critical to choose the right materials. There are different options for sewer line installations that are being widely used. The durability, cost, and service life are all key factors to consider. The previously mentioned factors, along with the climate and soil conditions, can have an impact on the final decision.
Ductile iron pipe
Ductile Iron is a type of cast iron that has been designed so that it can contort moderately without bending, breaking, or cracking. As a result, ductile iron pipes are known for their durability and their ability to avoid extensive damage. Ductile iron pipes are frequently used in conditions where extreme vibrations are known to occur, such as near subways or elevated train tracks. If there is unstable ground conditions ductile iron pipe is also frequently used as it it less prone to break due to ground settlement. Therefore, ductile iron pipes are not only suitable for water mains, but wastewater pipes as well.
Vitrified Clay sewer pipes
Clay pipes are commonly referred to as vitrified clay pipes. They are known for their strength and their ability to resist most forms of corrosion. The strength and durability of clay sewer pipes can greatly exceed your expectations. The mortar that is used in pipe joints will generally deteriorate before the vitrified clay pipe.
PVC plastic soil pipe
PVC is both lightweight and corrosion-resistant. Although PVC plastic is light in terms of weight, it is also very strong. PVC plastic is low cost and easy to work with, and this makes it a preferred choice for many commercial and residential projects. PVC plastic is also known for its resistance to sulfuric acid corrosion that has been bacterially generated. However, one of the disadvantages of PVC plastic is that the bulk of its strength will be lost after about 50 years.
