POLYETHYLENE “INDOOR” APPLICATION
BASIN INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. Inspect your basin assembly. If the unit has been damaged in shipment
or if parts are missing, contact your distributor before installing.
2. Carefully read all literature to familiarize yourself with details regarding
installation and use. Retain materials for future reference.
3. All installations must comply with all applicable electrical and
plumbing codes, including but not limited to the National Electrical
Code, local, regional and/or state plumbing codes, etc.
4. Dig a hole for the basin. The basin should be located in a very low
trafc area proximate to an appropriate electrical outlet. The hole
should be at least 8” larger in diameter than the basin in order to
leave 4” of backll all the way around the perimeter. A minimum of 4”
of compacted subbase is also required. Backll and subbase should
be 1/8” to 3/4” pea gravel or 1/8” to 1/2” crushed stone.
5. The 4” inlet should be located between the top lip of the basin and
the alarm oat “on” level with a minimum distance of 24 inches
between the oor of the basin and inlet. Determine the location of the
inlet based upon your inlet pipe arrangement. The inlet must be used
with 4” pipe. It should be installed on the side of the basin opposite
the oat switches. To install a 4” cast iron inlet hub, use a 4” holesaw
to drill into the side of the basin at the correct elevation. Center the
hub inner diameter with the hole in the basin. Attach the hub to the
side of the basin using the sealant and hardware provided. To install
a pipe seal, use a 5” holesaw to drill into the side of the basin at the
correct elevation. Insert the pipe seal from the outside of the basin.
6. The cover bolts should be installed into their threaded inserts to
prevent damage to the threads during the nal stages of installation.
7. Carefully set the basin in the hole and connect the 4” inlet pipe. If
using a cast iron hub, seal the pipe to the ange with approved
caulk or gasket. If using a pipe seal, use liquid soap as a lubricant
if necessary. Backll around the basin with specied media. Care
should be taken not to damage components or leave voids when
backlling. Finish grade of oor should be poured in place around
the top 6” of the basin assembly.
8. Clean any debris out of the basin.
