Tank & Containment Lining

Potable-water tank lining

Internal corrosion in drinking-water tanks and pump components forces a choice between costly replacement and a certified recoat.

The problem

The need for potable-water tank lining

BHI Coatings performs potable-water tank lining across Alvin and the Texas Gulf Coast. Internal corrosion in a drinking-water tank or its pump components puts a utility in front of two options: full replacement, or a certified recoat. Bare or pitted steel sheds product into the water and keeps thinning the floor and shell while that decision waits. Replacement carries a long lead time and a capital line item most planned outages cannot absorb.

Our method

How BHI Coatings does potable-water tank lining

We blast the interior to a clean profile, then apply an NSF-approved epoxy rated for direct potable-water contact across floor, shell, and affected components. Our crew sizes the job around the outage window the utility already has. The system cures cold inside the vessel, so no hot work and no flame enter a confined space.

Industries we do this for
The result

The tank returns to service behind a certified potable-water barrier, and the full replacement, along with its lead time, never happens.
