About this detail

A concrete utility box houses a 2.5-inch water meter assembly complete with a bypass valve and custom setter. The assembly rests on drain gravel at the base of the structure, featuring a 2.5-inch inlet and outlet line with a 7-foot minimum clearance to the roof of the box. A frame and cover sits atop the concrete box, with provisions to raise the frame to grade using standard utility plan details. Alternative details show a 2.5-inch turbo meter installation and a cross-section with brass pipe and clay or concrete block blocking. Accompanying notes specify meter placement requirements, type K copper pipe connections, and backfill compaction criteria per APWA standards.
