Gravity to Force Main Connection

Gravity to Force Main Connection

Gravity to Force Main Connection

(OP)
I'm curious what is involved in connecting a 6" gravity sewer service to a 12" force main.  The 6" service is for a restroom (2 sinks, 3 water closets, 1 urinal total) and a splash pad for a children's play area.

RE: Gravity to Force Main Connection

It will basically involve the construction of a small lift station.

RE: Gravity to Force Main Connection

Also, be sure to check with whoever owns the 12 forcemain as you are designing your pump station.  Some municipalities may not allow the connection of a forcemain into a forcemain.
