Installing Roof Drains in Los Angeles

A-1 Management — Wed, 17 Mar 2021 15:06:27 +0000

I post about my CIPP crew here at A-1 Total Service Plumbing all the time, however, today I’ll highlight the plumbing side. My dad and my Uncle Brad sent me pictures of a roof drain project they just completed in Los Angeles. The A-1 team installed a total of 600 Linear feet of new 4-inch cast-iron corner roof drains. We accomplished this Los Angeles commercial install with a man lift to raise us 43FT in the air. The roof slopes to the back of the building during heavy rains and the water pools and holds upwards of 10-inches of water. The A-1 team is installing a series of roof drains to stop this issue in Los Angeles.

Descaling of 43 roof vents before we install 176-foot of 4” CIPP Pipe

A-1 Management — Tue, 16 Jun 2020 15:59:34 +0000

This is Chris O. He is a lead technician on the A-1 team performing cleaning and Descaling of 43 roof vents before we install 176-foot of 4” CIPP Pipe provided by Perma-Liner Industries. My team and I find it imperative to clean and prep all laterals before installing and CIPP down the mainline. This helps stop resin balls that form and mix with build-up and debris that is in the laterals.

Example.. average reinstatement without proposing laterals is 45min due to the gunk build-up.

The average cleaning takes up to 30 minutes and provides a better product for the customer. The average reinstatement for a clean lateral is 12 minutes. This also makes a manual reinstatement quicker. When the bubble does not form, you are able to get a camera down the lateral to illuminate the reinstatement area without having a line full of debris and pulling the camera out several times to clean the head. In the following pictures you will see CIPP, one is a project we performed for a contractor who refuses to clean laterals and the reinstatement’s take a very long time, they look bad and cause stoppages. The other pictures are a reinstatement with a properly cleaned lateral. No debris falling out of the pipe.
