INTERCEPTORS 
EXTENSIONS (Adjustable)
In installations where the exact extension dimension required is unknown or where little notice has been provided to the installer
advising of the need for an extension; integral and bolt on extensions are impractical due to the time necessary for their fabrication.
Wade's nationwide network of manufacturer's representatives stock adjustable extensions for immediate shipment to jobsites when
these situations occur. The extension is adjustable and is secured to the interceptor similar to a fixed extension. After bolting the
extension to the interceptor, the top is adjustable to grade.
Installation Note
If adjustable extension is install in areas other than on grade where fumes may seep from the adjustable extension connections, an
optional rope seal is recommended. The 1/2" diameter neoprene sponge gasket is installed in the annular space between the upper
and lower housings. For the slotted openings, it is recommended that these spaces be sealed with a elastomeric flex seal tape with
good adhesion characteristics. For slab on grade installations where it is desirable to seal the housing from back-fill, an aluminum foil
duct tape is suitable.
