The economy in Utah is booming, and Blue Line Plumbing and Mechanical has a lot of jobs to stay on top of. Viega products are coming in quite handy to help speed things along.

Blue Line recently ran gas lines for an office complex with warehouses in American Fork, Utah, running MegaPressG lines to each of the 22 units. There is also a two-inch water main in ProPress, about 1,000 feet long with tees and ball valves, providing water to each unit. Using Viega products made it all possible.

“Basically, I first thought, ‘Wow, this looks so easy,’” Bryce Mannek, president of Blue Line, said. “Time is of the essence in Salt Lake City, and Marty Ellis from Viega had come out to do a demo. I borrowed a press gun from him and got the materials; and on a project in Herriman that I thought was going to take about a week, we did it in two days. It saved us a ton of time.”

The office complex owner estimated that there’s about a mile of one-inch pipe in the building, the first of three similar buildings in the same complex. Mannek said that besides saving time and money using Viega, one of his favorite things is the simple, clean look of the product.

Olympia Plumbing Corporation, who worked closely with the general contractor for the tower, Coastal Construction, is one of the largest commercial plumbing companies in South Florida. Olympia has worked on many high-rise buildings, but the Porsche tower is one of the more notable projects on their resume. They have used Viega ProPress and Viega MegaPress on a variety of projects across the state and stand by the product. IMG_8726
“The Viega ProPress was excellent. We’ve been working well with it and there are no leaks,” Cesar Gamero, Superintendent at Olympia said. “I pressurized it at 200 pounds and we haven’t had any problems with it. You don’t have to come back to it. It’s a good product.”
