Product Information

Full details

The Polypipe 215mm Side Riser is for contractors and builders needing to extend the depth of 460mm inspection chambers. Its key benefit is the easy push-fit installation, significantly reducing on-site assembly time. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with 460mm bases and Polypipe drainage systems. This black, 215mm high riser is manufactured from durable polypropylene, offering corrosion resistance and compliance with BS EN 1401 and BS4660:2000 standards.

FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Polypipe Side Riser?

The primary purpose is to increase the depth or height of a 460mm diameter inspection chamber base for underground drainage systems.

What is the diameter of the riser?

What pipe sizes can be connected to this riser?

It integrates seamlessly with Polypipe underground drainage pipes and fittings from 82mm to 160mm diameters.

Is this riser suitable for all inspection chambers?

No, this specific riser is designed for 460mm diameter Polypipe inspection chamber bases only.

What materials is the riser made from?

It is manufactured from high-quality, durable polypropylene.

Yes, it is certified to BS EN 1401 and BS4660:2000 standards.

How is the riser installed?

It features an easy push-fit installation system with an integrated seal and snap-cap.

Troubleshooting

Riser does not fit securely onto the chamber base.

Check for debris or damage on both the chamber base connection and the riser's seal. Ensure the riser is correctly aligned. If using lubricant, apply it evenly. Verify that you are using a 460mm base and the correct 215mm riser.

Leak detected at the connection point.

Disassemble the connection and inspect the seal for damage or debris. Reassemble, ensuring the seal is seated correctly and the push-fit connection is fully engaged. If the seal is damaged, it may need replacement. Ensure the riser is fully pushed home.

Difficulty pushing the riser onto the base.

Ensure the connection surfaces are clean and smooth. A small amount of water-based lubricant on the seal can aid assembly. Check that no obstructions are present within the chamber base socket.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Ensure the 460mm inspection chamber base is clean and free from debris.
  2. Apply lubricant (if recommended by Polypipe for the specific seal) to the connection points.
  3. Align the 215mm Side Riser with the top of the inspection chamber base.
  4. Push the riser firmly onto the base until it engages securely with the seal and snap-cap system.

Compatibility:

  • This riser is designed exclusively for use with 460mm diameter Polypipe inspection chamber bases.
  • It is compatible with Polypipe underground drainage pipes and fittings in diameters from 82mm to 160mm.
  • Ensure all connecting pipes and fittings are also certified and suitable for underground drainage.

Care:

  • Due to its underground application, regular maintenance is typically part of the overall drainage system inspection.
  • Clean the riser externally if exposed during maintenance by wiping with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Internally, the riser will be cleaned by normal water flow. Periodic inspection of the drainage system should account for the riser's integrity.
