Old Method We tapped a 2" connection into the tank for each location (three for the LB-2 and four for the LB-5). Then, we threaded in a 1-1/2" adapter on the inlet and outlet, thus giving the contractor the option of using 1-1/2" or 2" connections. We also threaded in a 2" plug on the top of the tank, which is the optional top inlet. Over time, several issues began to surface with this method:
New Method We now spin weld a 2" injection-molded female-thread connection into the tank for each fitting location. We provide the adapters and plug uninstalled in the box. The benefits:
For that chemistry lab that needs (80) LB-2's, we can now ship the order the next day! Did You Know?
The bottom of the LB-2 and LB-5 are molded so that a contractor can cut a piece of 4" pipe to use as a "field-adjustable" pedestal. This allows the installer to quickly raise the tank to meet higher inlet inverts while eliminating strain on the sink's tailpiece.
