Description
This 450mm prefabricated surface water inspection chamber provides a practical, off-site manufactured solution for accessing underground drainage systems. It is designed to reduce on-site construction time, improve dimensional accuracy, and simplify installation compared with traditional brick-built chambers.
With a compact 450mm internal diameter and a standard 1.0m overall height, this chamber is well suited to shallow and medium-depth surface water applications on residential, commercial, and light civil projects.
Inlet Configuration (A1)
This chamber is supplied in a fixed A1 configuration, comprising:
- 2 × 160mm twinwall side inlets positioned at 90°
- 2 × 110mm EN1401 side inlets positioned at 45°
- 1 × 150mm to 160mm level invert reducer (twinwall spigot-to-spigot)
This configuration allows straightforward connection to commonly used surface water drainage pipework and is suitable for layouts requiring multiple inlet connections within a compact footprint.
Key Benefits
- Prefabricated design for faster installation and reduced site labour
- Consistent dimensions and clean pipe interfaces
- Compatible with standard twinwall and EN1401 pipe systems
- Suitable for adoptable and non-adoptable drainage layouts, subject to design
- Practical alternative to traditional in-situ or brick-built inspection chambers
Typical Applications
- Surface water drainage systems
- Residential developments
- Commercial and light civil projects
- SUDS and below-ground drainage networks
Delivery & Lead Time
Lead time is typically 7 working days, subject to availability at the time of order. Deliveries are made on large commercial vehicles and goods are supplied palletised, with customer offload normally required.
