BACKGROUND:
Hydrogen sulfide ("H2S") is a colorless gas generated in the sewer systems. Over time, this gas causes safety and maintenance problems including odors and corrosion. The corrosive nature of H2S compromises the integrity of the manholes by deteriorating the protective coating and exposing the concrete structure. Accordingly, the City has an ongoing need for the preparation and installation of polyurethane coatings to protect the manholes' concrete structures. This product has a life expectancy of 15 years.
