Rectangular Manhole Riser 610 x 460mm
This rectangular manhole riser is used with compatible rectangular underground drainage chamber components. It helps extend the chamber height where the chamber base sits below the finished ground level.
Before fitting, check the chamber base, riser and cover are the correct size and system. Also, make sure the joint areas are clean and correctly aligned before assembly.
Do not mix incompatible chamber systems. If the chamber base is Polypipe UG490, the matching riser should be checked against the supplier or manufacturer data before installation.
