1. M
cKenney’s renovated the life
support piping systems at the
Gulfarium Marine Adventure
Park in Florida.
THE CHALLENGE
Working within the customer’s budget,
McKenney’s had to renovate the life support
piping systems at a popular aquatic park
during a seasonal shutdown. There were no
designs or drawings to guide the work, and
the team had to replace a badly damaged
overflow line as well as unclog and stop leaks
in remaining steel pipes.
THE SOLUTION
McKenney’s conducted the work in two phases
to accommodate the customer’s budget. With
the knowledge gained from a previous large
aquarium piping project, the Georgia Aquarium
and McKenney’s team coordinated the design
with facility personnel and created drawings
for fabrication and installation. To unclog pipes
that would remain in place and prevent future
leaks, McKenney’s cleaned and lined the
pipes with fiberglass.
THE RESULTS
McKenney’s resolved the life support piping
system issues and performed the work
on time and under budget while returning
savings to the owner of Gulfarium Marine
Adventure Park.
