UNIQUE POLYMER SYSTEMS is a leader in providing advanced repair and protective solutions for various infrastructure needs. This case study details the successful repair of a swimming pool overflow tank using UPS 505 WAU WRAS APPROVED URETHANE WRAS, UPS 821 FFP FASTFILL PLUG, and UPS 909 PP POROUS PRIMER.
A swimming pool’s concrete overflow tank was found to be leaking, caused by the degradation of the concrete substrate. This leak not only led to water loss but also threatened the integrity of the tank, necessitating urgent repair and protection to prevent further damage.
The main challenge was to restore the integrity of the concrete tank and apply a protective coating that would provide long-lasting resistance to water leakage. The solution needed to be effective in sealing the tank while being safe for use in a swimming pool environment.
UNIQUE POLYMER SYSTEMS provided a comprehensive repair and protection solution using UPS 505 WAU, UPS 821 FFP, and UPS 909 PP. The application process involved the following steps:
Surface Preparation:
- The top layer of degraded concrete was removed through blasting and grinding, ensuring a clean and stable surface for the repair materials.
Concrete Repair with UPS 821 FFP FASTFILL PLUG
- The damaged sections of the concrete were repaired using UPS 821 FFP, which provided a quick-setting and durable repair to restore the integrity of the tank.
Priming with UPS 909 PP POROUS PRIMER
- The entire surface was primed with UPS 909 PP to ensure proper adhesion of the subsequent protective coating.
Application of UPS 505 WAU WRAS APPROVED URETHANE
- Two coats of UPS 505 WAU were applied using brush and roller techniques, with each coat applied at a thickness of 350 microns. This final coating provided robust protection against water leakage and ensured the long-term durability of the overflow tank.
The application of UPS 505 WAU, combined with the comprehensive repair process, successfully sealed the swimming pool overflow tank, preventing further water loss and degradation. The durable coating ensured that the tank could withstand the demands of its environment while maintaining the integrity of the concrete structure.
This case study highlights the effectiveness of UNIQUE POLYMER SYSTEMS' repair and protective coatings in restoring and protecting critical infrastructure. Our advanced materials and precise application techniques provided a reliable solution that extended the life of the swimming pool overflow tank.
