Intex 2
The Atplas Intex 2 is a purpose designed
alternative to traditional underground meter
chamber systems for new domestic or small
commercial water connections. Intex 2
is designed to be built into the wall of
a property during its construction and
offers particular advantages over some
underground chamber systems especially in
areas of contaminated land. Intex 2 brings
benefits to the utility, the house builder or
developer and the consumer, in fact
everyone involved in the meter supply
chain.
