Product Information

Full details

The FloPlast 300mm Inspection Chamber Base (D820) is designed for professional drainage installers and DIY enthusiasts looking to simplify complex pipe alignments in underground systems. Its primary benefit is the built-in flexibility offered by three adjustable inlets, which can reduce the need for extra bends or connectors, though users should note it is specifically engineered for 300mm diameter systems and requires precise installation for a watertight seal.

FAQs

Does this chamber base meet building regulations?

Yes, it is fully compliant with BS 7158 standards for inspection chambers.

Can I use this with non-FloPlast pipe systems?

While it is designed for the FloPlast system, it is intended to connect to standard 300mm drainage pipes, though compatibility should always be verified against the pipe's outer diameter.

How much can the sockets rotate?

Each inlet and the main outlet can rotate 10 degrees in any direction.

Which risers are compatible with this base?

This unit is compatible with the FloPlast D820 and D822 side risers.

Is this suitable for heavy vehicle traffic?

This chamber base is designed for standard residential or light commercial drainage. Always refer to site-specific loading requirements if traffic is expected.

Do I need lubricant for the seals?

Using a proper drainage lubricant on the pipe end can make insertion easier and protect the rubber seal during assembly.

Troubleshooting

Pipe does not fit into the socket

Check for debris in the ring-seal and ensure the pipe end is chamfered to allow for smoother insertion.

Leakage at the connection point

Verify that the ring-seal is correctly seated and that the pipe has been fully inserted past the seal.

Difficulty rotating the inlet

Ensure the area around the base is clear of dirt; minor resistance is normal, but do not force the component if it feels stuck due to soil compaction.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Reduces the need for additional pipe bends and connectors
  • High flexibility with 10-degree rotation per socket
  • Robust build quality meets BS 7158 standards
  • Easy to integrate with FloPlast riser components

Cons

  • Limited to 300mm diameter pipe systems
  • Requires careful excavation to ensure proper positioning
  • Installation requires knowledge of drainage best practices

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal performance, ensure the base is placed on a stable, compacted foundation of pea shingle or similar bedding material. When connecting pipes, ensure the rubber ring seals are clean and free of debris to maintain a watertight connection. The D820 is specifically designed for use with FloPlast D820 and D822 side risers; do not attempt to force connections with incompatible riser types. Regular maintenance involves periodic inspection of the chamber to clear any debris that might impede flow, following standard drainage maintenance procedures.
