I just wanted to touch base with you quickly
and whenever newer product lines that's actually becoming
more and more popular nowadays and its
these dekorra backflow enclosures
back for protection covers what these do
is a all the the backflow valve
as as many as you are probably already aware
scanner can have a you shaped metal
get piping and then in the in the middle
its upside down you so comes out of the ground
about usually about two feet or so and then
will go to the left to rate I'm usually
three-feet and then back down on the ground
and then in the middle love that length of pipe is copper pipe
in most cases and in the middle of that length of pipe is the backflow
prevention device and basically it prevents
water from mom from say a garden hose or whatever from
flowing back into year your drinking water supply
and I'm it it
you know it's a safety precaution and the they're becoming more and more
popular and I'm more and more required
by have my residential and commercial building codes
I am and there's a need to cover those up
for one in red residents left applications are
they're pretty ugly look at I you know you don't like kids messing with them
I'm in tears is quite a bit fast people
heck I'm off to sell the pieces for scrap metal
which is pretty lame but unfortunately pretty common
I'm so long story short is allowed to folks want to cover these up
and what we have here are some real nice
I extremely durable yet economical solutions
for for covering up these backflow prevention valves
I'm one of the most popular
for stuff we we offer two different sizes
both are made by the koran in the US USA
there's the the 301 size which is first small
turned to medium small units I know half inch 1 inch
I'm the I have the larger XL size 302
watchers are for the AM the larger in Shin
passively up up to two inches it really depends
and how the backflow is laid out see can't really just say okay it's one inch
the you know this one's gonna work it really depends on
and how hi it is how long it is
and some other factors going into the 301 which is the smaller
above the two I'm will
we're gonna focus Moran this this particular model
in in this video I am
as you can see here it's a as a two-piece
so you have the base and in the tap which would slide over the
the backflow device I can show you some pictures here
it has these these left lacking pay Abbas
which are really nice for a for pair lacks
there's one on each side so when the case comes down over this this pops up
to a whole
only put the pair lack ray here and here's where you would pound this
into the ground if you have a concrete slab or whatever you can use a
anchors but this will keep it secure
securely fastened to the ground
here we have summer filter
shatter the filter media its lies in here
and that provides for water flowing also ventilation
there's a close above the texture and this which is really nice day they use
the same technology here to core does
that when they manufacture these covers
that they do when they manufacture their artificial rock sis got a real nice
carried grain year of gritty texture to it which is a
you know looks great out in the yard and it's available in this color
which is a tan color and also the the green turf
color here's a shot down over
the site a bit with the cover an
there is a little bit farther away
has no shadow where you could put the steaks and then the
yeah tabs lacking can can issue detail here's one right here
were lacking tabs
and a wanting this important when you're sizing these
you want to be sure that measure the backflow when a measure the length
my meaning left to right and also
the high and then the with have the actual backflow unit net which will be
probably appear somewhere
yet to make sure that that this covers wide enough
I'm if it's not you may need a larger version
I'm but this is a a mistake a lot of people makers say forget
to check this out here and make sure that the with there
the actual back for unit is going to fit in
with wherever it ends up according to the HIF
but these charts a real nice because it gives you a good idea
we are good idea what exactly this particular
backflow enclosure can handle
I'll one last thing these are available and a half
and three different classes the
the ASSE classes mom by that
there's class 1 which means it's insulated
and he did scan electric heat tape which included
edges plugs into a standard outlet if you need total
total freeze protection class to hear
is is insulated is just insulated
so it's good are 13 insulation
it's good for for frost protection and in the class 3
is Justin closure there's no heat or insulation
involved with that one all right and that about does it for the
the 301 backflow enclosures
I'm if you have any any other particular questions
or need help with sizing or anything
