DTV (drain water
tempering valve)
directly connected indirectly connected
If water is entering the interceptor at excessive temperature (over 150º F), a
drain water tempering valve (DTV) and approved backflow prevention assembly
must be installed. Most state and local plumbing codes prohibit water above
150º F being discharged into the sanitary sewer. Water above 150º F will
weaken or deform PVC Schedule 40 pipe, poly drainage fixtures like
interceptors and erode the coating of cast iron (leading to eventual failure).
Installation instructions and additional
components are included with the
interceptor. Read all instructions prior to
installation. This interceptor is intended to
be installed by a licensed plumber in
conformance with all local codes.
If your dishwashing sink(s)
discharges into a floor
drain/sink (drain), you must
regulate the flow into the drain
to avoid an overflow of water
onto the kitchen floor. This can
be done by installing a valve or
flow restriction cap on the sink
piping that discharges into the
drain. See drawing for
guidance. For detailed
guidance on indirect connections, go to:
webtools.schierproducts.com/Technical_Data/Indirect_Connections.pdf
When installed under a
hydrostatic slab (slab
designed to withstand
upward lift, usually caused by
hydrostatic pressure)
interceptor must be enclosed
in a watertight concrete vault.

SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS
AGS1
The wet weight of the interceptor combined with
high temperature kitchen water creates the
potential for tank deformation when installed
above grade. In these situations Above Grade
Support Kit model AGS1 or AGS2 should be
installed to maintain structural integrity. AGS1 is
required for some GB-250 installations. AGS2 is
required for all GB-500 installations.
Above Grade Installation Support
(for Models GB-250 and GB-500 Only)
Install unit on solid, level surface in
contact with the entire footprint of unit
base; for suspended installations design
trapeze to support the wet weight of the
unit. Do not partially support unit or
suspend unit using metal U-channel to
create a trapeze.
Fully Support Base of Unit
For above grade installations ensure heavy
inlet and outlet piping (such as cast iron or
long runs) is properly supported or suspended
during the entire installation process to
prevent connection failure or damage to
bulkhead fittings.

BACKFILL
For Schier Grease Interceptor Installations - Failure to follow this guidance voids your
warranty
Interceptors and risers are not designed
to withstand water table height in
excess of the top of the unit when
buried (see figure). If it is possible for
this to occur, install the interceptor and
risers in a water-tight concrete vault or
backfill with concrete or flowable fill
(wet concrete and flowable backfill
should be poured in stages to avoid
crushing the interceptor). At risk areas
include but are not limited to tidal surge
areas, floodplains and areas that
receive storm water. Great Basin™
models that are direct buried in high water table scenarios must be installed with an
anchor kit. Models GB-50, GB-75, and GB-250 use model AK1 anchor kit. Model
GB-500 uses model AK2 anchor kit for use with deadmen anchors. Models
GB-1000, GGI-750 and GGI-1500 use model AK3 anchor kit for use with deadmen
anchors.
