KOSH burst pipe

 

Typical problems with burst pipes in KOSH

• Corroded pipes in KOSH

When galvanized pipes corrode it happens from the inside and thus is not always visible by the naked eye which seems to be a common problem in the KOSH and surrounding areas.

• Polycorp pipes exposed to sunlight in the KOSH area

When Polycorp is used in areas where it is exposed to direct sunlight the UV rays from the sun has the effect of degrading the pipes to the extend where they become brittle and burst easily which is a major problem in KOSH due to the fact that some of the plumbers that has completed work in the KOSH and surrounding areas are not qualified and thus produces very low quality work.

• Polycorp exposed to hot water in KOSH

When Polycorp is exposed to hot water the pipe will very quickly become brittle and burst common to the KOSH and surrounding areas…  The use of Polycorp for hot water supplies in KOSH is another effect of poor workmanship and non qualified staff.
