COMANCO Completes PVC Liner Installation Securing South Florida’s Storm Water Infrastructure
COMANCO is proud to announce the successful completion of a 30mil PVC liner installation and containment solutions in South Florida. This project, completed on January 24, 2025, was part of a more extensive storm water management system designed to retain storm water and prevent runoff from impacting surrounding areas.
Project Scope and Execution
Our superintendents led the successful execution of this project, ensuring precision and quality throughout the installation. The project involved the installation of 27,000 square feet of 30mil PVC liner to line a basin and swale system. The liner, manufactured by EPI, provides a durable, impermeable barrier that ensures proper water retention.
COMANCO was subcontracted by Downrite Engineering to complete the liner installation, working alongside Miller Construction.
Unique Project Challenges
While this was a standard PVC liner installation and containment solution, the project presented a unique challenge: applying a concrete liner solution by booting the pond’s concrete structures instead of the pipes themselves. Since the pipes were located below the subgrade surface, COMANCO’s team expertly fabricated and installed five custom pipe boots to seamlessly seal the liner around the round, smooth concrete structures, reinforcing the secondary containment system for long-term durability.
This solution ensured a secure and long-lasting seal, preventing potential leakage and maintaining the integrity of the storm water retention system.
The Importance of Storm Water Management
Proper storm water management, including floating covers, methane barriers, and erosion control blankets, is crucial for new developments. By installing a PVC-lined basin and swale, similar to plastic pond liners and pit liners used in water retention systems, this project helps:
- Prevent flooding and erosion by managing storm water on-site.
- Protect local waterways by reducing sediment and pollutant runoff.
- Support sustainable development without requiring methane mitigation under the new warehouse building.
