Process piping is always confused with plumbing, but the two are very different types of piping systems. Here, you’ll learn more about process piping, the process in installing process pipes, and how you may use our process piping contractor services in Northern California.
Process Piping vs Plumbing
What’s the difference between process piping systems and plumbing systems? First process piping refers to piping in manufacturing companies where the pipes are used to transport liquids, fuels, gas, or chemicals that will be converted to a different substance. The pipes are part of the manufacturing process. On the other hand, plumbing is mainly for the operational needs of a company. This means pipes for the lavatory, rain, wastewater, etc. The purpose of the pipes here is not part of the process systems of the company.
Another major difference between process piping and plumbing is the codes and regulations in Northern California. In Northern California, there are different regulations for these two processes. For example, in plumbing, the materials and equipment installation are limited. As for process piping, our contractors can be more creative in terms of using different materials and process systems. The design and installation are also more flexible. The purpose of this is to be able to deliver the best process piping services our company offers especially in terms of handling different chemicals and containment.
Northern California Process Piping Process
Installation of process piping systems requires the presence of an experienced general contractor. In fact, if you can hire our piping contractors from the Northern California area, then that would be better. Our contractors can be mechanical contractors too.
Our piping contractors will oversee the whole design and installation in accordance with the contract value. They will design the whole process piping system that would make transport of air, chemicals, and high purity fluids safe.
Process piping services are not simply design and installation. A lot of what our general contractors will do is also look into your process and design the most efficient and safest way while being within contract value. They will also have to work within the regulations set by California when it comes to equipment installation and piping materials and design.
The installation services come much later when the design of the whole piping process is done. Installation services include the whole construction and set up of all pipes on your company premises. Most of the time, the company (client) does not get involved in the procurement of the services. When it comes to design, a general contractor may opt to explain to the client, but this is not entirely a requirement as the design and installation are very technical. Nonetheless, clients should be able to ask and consult with their general contractor service company to ensure that the services rendered are within contract value.
