Installation Guide
Meter Pit Installation Guide
Proper installation is critical to the long-term performance of a meter pit. As installation depth increases, so does the pressure on the pit, making proper bedding, even backfilling and controlled compaction especially important for maintaining its shape, alignment and stability.
This guide provides step-by-step recommendations for excavation and bedding, setting the meter pit and frame, placing and compacting backfill, and completing the installation at finished grade. It also covers recommended materials, lift depths and important installation precautions.
Bingham & Taylor meter pits are designed for pedestrian and incidental light-duty applications.
