AS-VODO

The water-meter shaft is used for the installation of a water meter and the related fittings on the house connection, to make them easily accessible. The walls are normally equipped with passages for water supply pipes, in accordance with the sketch or as agreed with the customer. Standardized water-meter shafts are produced as self-supporting structures for walking-on or as structures designed for embedding in concrete, which can be located under driveways. Depending on the required shape, water-meter shafts can be further distinguished as rectangular or new circular shafts with the ROTO technology…
