Install / Failure Note

Concrete manholes crack and corrode under H2S gas and sulfuric-acid attack from sewage off-gassing — Houston PolyTank's own problem statement names this as the primary driver behind concrete's real ~23-year average service life in sanitary sewer service, against MagnaPlast's 100-year design basis in the same application.

Sanitary sewer collection is H2S/sulfuric-acid service whether the bid spec says so or not — a concrete manhole that lasts 23 years instead of 100 is a cost most municipal bids never price in, which is why Liberty CES defaults to HDPE MagnaPlast over concrete on wastewater collection work.
