The success of any cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) installation project doesn’t rest solely on the quality of the materials used. It also depends on the expertise of the team installing the liners. Even the most advanced ultraviolet light-cured, glass-reinforced pipe (UV GRP) liner can fail to perform as intended without proper installation. This is why training is not just an additional offering at Reline America. It’s a fundamental component of our approach to delivering high-performing, long-lasting pipeline rehabilitation solutions.
Through specialized training programs, Reline America ensures that installers using our Alphaliner products are fully equipped with the knowledge, tools, and techniques necessary to install these liners with precision. But what goes into this training, and why is it essential to the success of UV GRP liner installations?
The complexities of UV GRP installation
Installing UV GRP liners is a highly technical process that requires precise execution. The strength, durability, and performance of the liner depend on every aspect of the installation — from handling the liner material correctly to controlling the curing process. Small mistakes can lead to major issues, such as incomplete curing, liner deformation, or structural weaknesses in the rehabilitated pipe.
To avoid mistakes that could compromise the liner’s performance, Reline America provides its network of contractors with detailed training on the specific challenges and best practices for installing UV GRP liners. This training assures every step is executed flawlessly, resulting in a pipe that performs as designed for decades to come.
Mastering the tools of the trade
One of the critical aspects of successful UV GRP liner installation is the proper use of specialized equipment. UV curing technology, inversion systems, and light trains are all crucial tools in the installation process, but they require training to be used effectively.
Reline America’s training program goes beyond basic equipment operation. We teach installers how to calibrate and maintain their equipment to meet the specific needs of each installation. This includes real-time monitoring of key variables such as curing temperature, light intensity, and liner tension.
Training also covers troubleshooting common equipment issues so contractors can quickly resolve problems without compromising the quality of the installation. Installers who master these tools and technologies will be better equipped to deliver reliable, high-quality UV GRP installations in a variety of conditions.
Training must be ongoing
The training for UV GRP liner installations should not be a one-time event but an ongoing commitment to the success of the contractors and the installations. Reline America offers continuous education and technical support so installers can stay up to date with the latest advancements in UV GRP technology and installation techniques. This commitment ensures every project meets the highest standards of quality, safety, and performance.
Additionally, Reline America only certifies contractors who have completed our rigorous training program. This approach guarantees that every installation is performed by a team with proven expertise. By working with certified contractors, project managers and engineers can trust that their UV GRP liner installation will be done correctly the first time, minimizing the risk of errors or future failures.
Training for reliable results
The success of UV GRP liner installations isn’t just about the quality of the materials. It’s about the expertise behind the installation. Proper training provides installers with the skills, knowledge, and tools to install UV GRP liners like Alphaliner for long-term durability and performance.
Reline America believes that investing in training is investing in success. We offer comprehensive, hands-on training to ensure every project meets the high standards our customers expect. Whether it’s mastering the tools, handling the liner, or optimizing the curing process, our training programs empower installers to deliver reliable results in every installation.
