2. Istruzioni per l'installazione
Follow these steps to properly install your Rain Bird VB Standard Valve Box Extension:
- Prepare the Existing Valve Box: Ensure the existing standard valve box is clean and free of debris. The top edge of the valve box should be level and clear for proper seating of the extension.
- Posizionare l'estensione: Carefully place the VB Standard Valve Box Extension directly on top of the existing valve box. Align the edges of the extension with the edges of the valve box to ensure a secure and stable fit.
- Secure the Extension (if applicable): While many extensions are designed to simply stack, some models or installations may benefit from additional securing methods (e.g., adhesive, screws). Consult your specific valve box model's instructions for any recommended securing procedures.
- Backfill and Level: Once the extension is in place, backfill around the exterior of the extension with soil, ensuring it is firmly packed to provide stability. The top edge of the extension should be level with the surrounding ground or slightly above, depending on your landscape design.
- Install Valve Box Cover: Place the appropriate valve box cover on top of the newly installed extension. Ensure the cover fits snugly and securely.
