Fabrication and installation of valve chamber for Metro Vancouver

Metro Vancouver Valve Chamber

Pictured right is a valve chamber that was fabricated for Metro Vancouver and installed in the North Vancouver area. Ideal Welders designed the modules for the chamber, supplied material, fabricated, coated, tested and installed the chamber in the field.

The entire valve chamber was pre-assembled in our shop to ensure proper fit. The unit was then parceled into manageable sized components for transport to the site.
