HydroSure Valve Box - Black - 10"

The internal diameter is approximately 10 inches. Specific internal height will depend on lid design and base, but it is designed to house standard irrigation valves.

The valve box comes with four pre-opened holes, allowing for the connection of up to four pipes.

While primarily designed for irrigation valves, its durable structure could potentially be adapted for certain drainage applications, provided adequate drainage is ensured.

The lid is designed to prevent significant water ingress, but it is not entirely watertight. Some minor moisture may accumulate, especially after heavy rain.

It is made from high-quality, hard-wearing materials designed to withstand harsh underground conditions.

Standard gardening tools for excavation (shovel, spade) are required. Pipe cutting and connection tools will depend on the specific irrigation pipes being used.

Ensure there is no soil or debris trapped around the lid's edge. Gently pry around the perimeter if necessary.

Use appropriate pipe grommets or sealant to ensure a secure and watertight connection. If holes are too large, consider a bulkhead fitting.

Check for proper drainage around the valve box. Ensure the lid is seated correctly. If persistent, consider adding a drainage hole at the bottom or installing a drainage system.

Re-excavate and ensure the valve box is placed on a stable base and properly backfilled. Compact the soil firmly around the box.
