Thames Water have been installing FT Pipeline Systems
unique Locking Replacement Lids for over four years
saving in excess of £100,000 a year
in The Provinces.
Due to the range of sizes available, 65% of all defective
street furniture works are fixed first time by installing
a Locking Lid. The range includes stop taps, meter
boxes and sluice valves. Also available are drop-in
replacement lids for larger chambers.
The simple installation technique
of the Locking Lid leads to a quick and easy first time
fix for defective street furniture, saving on average
£70 a time.
Use of the lids has recently expanded to South London
resulting in an Agreement being drawn up between the
two companies.
“The cost
of replacing a surface box, even a stop tap cover, can
be very expensive. Introducing the use of Locking Lids
as a no dig alternative has saved Thames Water £125,000
in the last 12 months”. Team Leader,
Provinces
