Inspection chamber diameter reduction

Featured Replies

I have two installed inspection chambers of 600mm diameter both of which are to be reduced in height following a landscaping design change. As part of that change we're also looking to reduce the drain cover size to 320 or 350mm still allowing access for any required clearing.

 

I can find plenty of access restriction or shaft reducing caps, but none of these look like they are designed to allow a change from one riser diameter to another e.g 600mm to 320/350mm (hope the next diagram explains it a bit more)

Anyone know of a suitable "riser diameter changer" product?

Price is horrific, but shop around.

There must be, as it would need to take a modular access cover. 
 

Ring them on Tuesday and ask for a solution.

it seems there is no ability to then add 320mm or 350mm riser on top of it.

Why not use a 600mm riser before it?

Talk to someone. That's a radical solution. Hope I'm not met by a bot!! 😉

You appear to want to do the left illustration below. I'm suggesting the one on the right. But maybe you're trying to do something else.

@Mike, either would do, as long as there is some reduced diameter riser before the cover goes on
