Challenge
Straight-length requirements from the meter manufacturer conflicted with an existing tight valve arrangement from an earlier phase.
Solution
We paused supply, flagged the clash to the engineer with measured sketches, and shipped only after a revised pit layout was issued — supplying longer spools instead of forcing a non-compliant layout.
Results
- Passed developer inspection first time
- Avoided costly pit rework after concrete pours
- Cleaner relationship between contractor and developer QS
Illustrates pit layout discipline — the right meter is useless if straight lengths are impossible.
