🚒 This is what happens when fire mains are not flushed, inspected or maintained.
Sedimentation and Tuberculation results.
🚒
Tuberculation (too-BURR-kyoo-LAY-shun) The development or formation of small mounds of corrosion products (rust) on the inside of iron pipe. These mounds (tubercles) increase the roughness of the inside of the pipe thus increasing resistance to water flow (decreases the C Factor).
Note: Always remember to slowly close your hydrant to prevent damaging water-hammer, to old water mains. 😎
