NDS 1216 Catch Basin Riser Instruction Manual

1. Prodotto finitoview

The NDS 1216 Catch Basin Riser is designed to extend the height of a 12-inch square catch basin, allowing for effective surface water collection when the catch basin is installed deeper in the ground. This durable polystyrene component adds up to 6 inches of height, simplifying installation by reducing the need for extensive regrading or complex piping adjustments. It integrates seamlessly with existing 12-inch catch basins and accommodates standard 12-inch catch basin drain grates.

The riser is an integral part of a complete drainage system, facilitating the collection and redirection of stormwater from various areas such as lawns, landscaped sections, under downspouts, patios, and walkways. The material is treated with UV inhibitors to enhance durability and prevent degradation from sun exposure.

2. Informazioni sulla sicurezza

Please read and understand all instructions before installation. Adhere to local building codes and regulations. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and eye protection when handling tools and materials. Exercise caution when cutting the riser to size. Keep children and pets away from the work area during installation.

5. Principi operativi

The NDS 1216 Catch Basin Riser functions as an extension to your stormwater management system. By raising the inlet height of the catch basin, it allows for more efficient collection of surface water from areas that may have settled or where additional ground cover has been added. Water flows into the grate, through the riser, and into the catch basin below, from where it is directed to drain pipes for discharge or infiltration.

6. Manutenzione

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and effectiveness of your drainage system:

• Ispezione: Periodically check the riser and grate for any signs of damage, cracks, or blockages.
• Pulizia: Remove any accumulated leaves, dirt, or debris from the grate and inside the catch basin to prevent clogging. A garden hose or small shovel can be used for cleaning.
• Dintorni: Keep the area around the catch basin clear of excessive vegetation or soil buildup that could impede water flow.

7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi

If you encounter issues with your NDS 1216 Catch Basin Riser, consider the following:

• Scarso drenaggio:
  • Check if the grate is clogged with debris. Clean thoroughly.
  • Inspect the catch basin and connecting drain pipes for blockages.
  • Ensure the surrounding ground slopes correctly towards the grate to facilitate water entry.
• Unstable Riser/Grate:
  • Verify that the riser is seated correctly on the catch basin.
  • Ensure the grate is properly installed on the riser.
  • Confirm the ground beneath the catch basin is stable and level.
