Why Choose Pipe Freezing?
Pipe freezing is widely regarded as the best technique for fluid isolation in pipeline systems, especially in large commercial and multi-storey buildings. This method offers several key benefits. By isolating only small sections of the pipeline, we prevent the need to shut down the entire water supply, maintaining the operation of essential areas like toilets, cooling towers, and plant rooms. Additionally, pipe freezing eliminates the need to drain down the whole system, saving time and reducing the risk of water wastage. Our reliable team provides 24/7 support, ensuring assistance is available whenever needed. This technique is also cost-effective, serving as an economical alternative to traditional methods by reducing both downtime and labour costs. Moreover, pipe freezing is an environmentally friendly solution, as it avoids the need for large-scale water disposal.
pipe freezing process
Pipe freezing is a timely and cost-effective method of fluid isolation in a pipeline system, allowing maintenance or modifications to be carried out without draining the entire system. This environmentally friendly technique is much faster and ideal for large commercial or multi-storey buildings where cutting off the flow of water to the entire building would be impractical.
The process begins by identifying the section of the pipe that requires isolation. Liquid nitrogen is then applied to the perimeter of the pipe in a controlled manner. The extreme cold of the liquid nitrogen causes the contents of the pipe to freeze, forming an ice plug. This ice plug effectively isolates the section of the pipe, allowing repair or maintenance work to be performed without disrupting the water supply to the rest of the building.
Once the necessary work is complete, the ice plug is gently melted, and the liquid inside the pipe resumes its normal flow. This process ensures minimal disruption, no need for system draining, and provides a cost-effective and environmentally friendly solution for fluid isolation in pipeline systems.
applications for pipe freezing

- Commercial Buildings: Ensuring minimal disruption in office buildings, shopping centres, and industrial facilities.
- Multi-Storey Residential Buildings: Providing a practical solution for apartment complexes where water supply must be maintained.

how it works?
Pipe freezing allows us to isolate water to only small sections of multi-story buildings and large facilities. As a result, there is no need to completely shut down the entire water supply, which ensures minimal disruption to the running of your facility.
This process will help you maintain water supply to areas that constantly require water like toilets, cooling towers, plant rooms and more.
Plumbing & Pipeline Solutions is based in South Australia and has the equipment to freeze sections of pipe work up to 50ml.

Pipe freezing is an environmentally friendly alternative to draining down the system and is much faster.
When you have a large, commercial or multi storey living space, it would be impractical to cut off the flow of water to the entire building just to have a pipe repair.
Pipe freezing will allow you to isolate parts of installations that need repair.
It is a technique used to freeze contents of a section of a pipe by applying liquid nitrogen to the perimeter of the pipe in a controlled manner until the contents of the pipe freeze and form an ice plug.
Once the work is complete, the ice plug is melted and the liquid once again flows as normal.
