PHASE I: BREAKING GROUND
GET OPEN & GET SELLING!
Every day a new store is not open is a day it is not selling pizzas, coffee, or fuel. So
the first challenge Franklin Electric helps Kwik Trip™ solve is speed of installation.
When crews trench a new Kwik Trip™ site, they are laying Franklin Electric
pipework. APT® XP Pipe for flexible 1¾" product lines and larger diameter
UPP® Pipe for 2" vent lines and 3" high-flow commercial diesel lines. The appeal
is simple: less complexity underground means faster backfill, quicker testing,
and on-time openings. APT® XP Pipe and its flexible construction accommodates
tight trench layouts instead of fighting them, installs easy in any weather (no
small task in a harsh Midwest winter), and connects the tanks to dispensers with
simple mechanical fittings.
Around the tanks and dispensers, Franklin Electric containment, including
Watertight Tank Sumps, and Low Profile Dispenser Sumps, gives both
petroleum crews and electricians a system designed to go in clean and test tight
the first time. The result is the thing every construction manager wants: a site
that is ready to generate revenue sooner, with fewer surprises between
groundbreaking and grand opening.
