Frequently Asked Questions

How deep can you bury the EZIpit® ?

The EZIpit® can be buried to a maximum installation depth of 5m and a minimum depth of 1.2m to invert.

Why is the shaft corrugated?

The corrugated shaft provides further flexibility and as a result can deflect and absorb dynamic traffic loads without cracking.

Can the EZIpit® be installed in a roadway?

Yes. The EZIpit® is designed to resist loading and can be supplied with a Class D cover arrangement, which complies with AS 3996.

Will the EZIpit® resist flotation when buried in water charged ground?

Yes, the corrugated wall will key into the compacted embedment material resisting any up thrust. Tests in the field have been successfully conducted, confirming the unit doesn’t float.

Can you use SewerMAX® pipe with the EZIpit®?

Yes, but only in DN225. The DN225 SewerMAX® spigot x socket pipe adaptor allows connection to the base when using SewerMAX® pipe.
