| THE PROBLEM
Engineers, contractors, maintenance staff, and rehabilitation experts know that over time their fine work from design to field installation will fall victim to infiltration and manhole structures will leak at the joints and at the grade adjustment rings or chimney area. In a manhole or catch basin, the deterioration of mortar is affected by a variety of forces - freeze thaw cycles, exposure to water, acidic soils, chemicals, ground faults, traffic - creating soil movement and general exposure problems. In due time, as the mortar seal on the structure is breached, infiltration of ground water and siltation increases, adding both to the accelerating deterioration of the structure and to additional processing expense for the treatment facility. Until recently, no effective method existed for protection against this attack. |
INFI-SHIELD® An external sealing system was developed by Sealing Systems, Inc., creating a protective rubber jacket, sealing the casting to the structure. This effectively eliminates infiltration and siltation through the adjustment rings, reducing the hydraulic loads on piping, pumping stations, and waste water treatment facilities. In addition, frequent and costly repair and maintenance is reduced, eliminating the sinking earth around manholes and catch basins. Expensive curb replacement, pavement, landscaping, and siltation clean-up is eliminated. |

FLEX-SEAL UTILITY SEALANT® Flex-Seal Utility Sealant® is an aromatic urethane rubber. Urethanes are noted for extreme toughness, elongation, abrasion resistance, acidic resistance, and longevity. Sealing Systems, Inc. process allows a fast and simple method of sealing the adjustment ring area and joint sections on any concrete structure. When properly installed, the adjustment ring areas and joint sections will not allow infiltration and will not deteriorate from hydrogen sulfide or road salt. |
