Kellen,
My comment on HP and A2000 being written out would be the following.
Products should be evaluated solely on their performance to meet the City of Bozeman expectations. HP Storm Pipe and
A2000 are made from completely different materials and when damaged don’t create the same problems. The cost to
repair A2000 and sewer pipe is significantly more expensive than HP pipe. Below are some cost comparisons.
Competing manufacturers should have no influence on if their competitors pipe is allowed or not. It does not encourage
manufacturers to improve their own products to meet end users expectation levels.
24” Coupler Price Per Each For Sewer Pipe = $2467
24” Coupler Price Per Each For HP Pipe = $635
18” Coupler Price Per Each For Sewer Pipe = $993
18” Coupler Price Per Each For HP Pipe = $419
15” Coupler Price Per Each For Sewer Pipe = $510
15” Coupler Price Per Each For HP Pipe = $237
12” Coupler Price Per Each For Sewer Pipe = $246
12” Coupler Price Per Each For HP Pipe = $160
12” HP/A200 = $13.00 /ft
12” Sewer Pipe = $28.00/ ft
15” HP/A200 = $19.00 /ft
15” Sewer Pipe = $41.00/ft
18” HP/A200 = $29.00 /ft
18” Sewer Pipe = $48.00
24” HP/A200 = $48.00 /ft
24” Sewer Pipe = $83.00 / ft
