Nomaco PERISER3 Meter Riser 3 Inches Steel Xpoly

Product Description

The NOMACO PERISER3 is a 3-inch meter riser insulation fitting designed to protect and insulate the riser pipe at gas or water meter connections. Constructed with a steel core and an Xpoly (cross-linked polyethylene foam) outer layer, this riser cover provides durable mechanical protection alongside effective thermal and moisture insulation. It is a standard component in utility meter installations and is typically specified by plumbers, gas fitters, and utility contractors working on residential and light commercial service connections.

The PERISER3 is suited for meter riser applications where the service pipe transitions from below grade to the meter set. The steel construction handles the physical demands of outdoor and underground-adjacent environments, while the Xpoly layer resists condensation, UV exposure, and incidental impact. It is commonly installed on gas service risers and cold-water service connections at the meter location.

Key Features

• 3-inch nominal pipe size fits standard meter riser configurations
• Steel core provides structural rigidity and mechanical protection
• Xpoly (cross-linked polyethylene foam) outer layer insulates against condensation and temperature transfer
• Designed for outdoor meter set installations with exposure to the elements
• Compact form factor for tight utility meter clearances

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and new-installation fitting for 3-inch meter riser pipe applications in residential and light commercial gas or water service connections.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed plumber or gas fitter in accordance with local utility requirements and applicable plumbing or gas codes. Shut off the gas or water service at the main before servicing the riser connection. Ensure the riser pipe is clean and free of burrs before fitting the insulation cover. Follow local authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) requirements for meter set clearances and insulation specifications.
