Product Description
The NDS 108BC is a 7-inch round valve box designed to house and protect in-ground irrigation control valves (ICV) in residential and commercial landscape systems. Built to a professional grade, this valve box provides ground-level access to buried valve assemblies, keeping them shielded from soil, debris, and surface traffic while allowing quick service access. The green lid blends with turf and landscaped areas. At 1.3 pounds, it is lightweight enough for single-technician installation without specialized lifting equipment. Irrigation contractors and landscape maintenance crews are the primary installers.
This valve box is suited for in-ground irrigation systems where individual control valves are buried below grade. It is commonly installed in residential lawns, commercial landscapes, golf course rough areas, and municipal green spaces. The round form factor fits standard round excavations and works with typical solenoid-operated ICV assemblies used in low-voltage irrigation control systems. Its green color is a recognized industry convention for irrigation valve access points, helping technicians locate service points during maintenance calls.
Key Features
- 7-inch round footprint fits standard round valve box excavations
- Professional-grade construction rated for typical in-ground irrigation service environments
- Green lid color follows irrigation industry convention for quick field identification
- Lightweight at 1.3 pounds for easy single-technician handling and installation
- Sized to accommodate ICV-style control valve assemblies
Compatibility
Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation valve box for residential and commercial in-ground irrigation systems using standard round ICV valve configurations.
Installation Notes
Valve boxes are typically installed by licensed irrigation contractors or landscape irrigation technicians. Before servicing any existing buried valve, shut off the irrigation system water supply and de-energize the low-voltage control wiring at the controller. Excavate to the depth required by the valve assembly and ensure the box sits flush with or slightly above finish grade to prevent surface water intrusion. Local codes and manufacturer guidelines should be followed for burial depth and backfill compaction around the box.
