Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the PC7BG requires a level, solid foundation to prevent structural failure. Ensure the inspection chamber opening is clean before positioning the frame. Use a strong sand and cement mix to bed the frame securely, ensuring the top of the cover is flush with the surrounding driveway finish. For care, keep the area around the frame free of debris that might hinder the lifting handles. Periodic checks are recommended to ensure the frame remains seated properly in the mortar bed and that the cover sits evenly without wobbling.
