Overview/ASSE-Performance Requirements
ASSE Performance Requirements
ASSE Standard 1060
In 1996, The American Society of Sanitary Engineering (ASSE) developed the
ASSE 1060 industry standard for outdoor enclosures to cover fluid conveying
components. Born from the organization’s philosophy of “prevention rather than
cure,” the ASSE 1060 seeks to protect public health and safety by providing
performance requirements to safeguard equipment from freezing, tampering, and
vandalism. As a result, the ASSE 1060 standard has been adopted by utilities
and Water Authority departments across the nation. To this day, the ASSE 1060
remains the water industry’s gold standard.
Hot Box® ASSE 1060 Certified
All Hot Box standard enclosures meet or exceed the test provisions of the ASSE
1060 standard and proudly bear the ASSE 1060 seal. To achieve the
certification, Hot Box enclosures must pass numerous independent material and
product performance tests. Laboratory Test Requirements for ASSE 1060 2006:
Section 3.1 Air Inlet Test (Class I-V, II-V and II-V)
Section 3.2 Structural Test (All Classes)
Section 3.3 Access for Testing and Maintenance (All Classes)
Section 3.4 Hinged Access Panel Restraints Test
Section 3.5 Drainage Performance Test (All Classes)
Section 3.6 Freeze Protection Capability Test (Class I and I-V)
Section 3.7 Security/Locking Mechanism Test
ASSE Standard 1060 Classes-Which One Do You Need?
Class I – Freeze Protection Enclosures (Heated): Designed and constructed to
maintain a minimum internal temperature of 40°F with external temperatures as
low as -30°F. Class II – Freeze Retardant Enclosures (Insulated Non-Heated):
Designed and constructed to be installed in locations with minimum external
temperatures of 33°F. Class III – Non-Freeze Protection Enclosures
(Uninsulated Non-Heated): Designed and constructed to provide system security
for components when freezing temperatures are not a consideration.
Hot Box®- Reduced Liability…Increased Credibility
Hot Box is the #1 trusted outdoor protection enclosure manufacturer in the

Also the front wall is easily removed to provide unobstructed access for equipment testing and maintenance after installation.
Corrosion & Scratch Resistant – Stucco embossed aluminum sheeting provides a corrosion proof and scratch resistant finish that looks good and stands up to the elements.
Peace of Mind – ASSE 1060 certification ensures that requirements for structural strength, drainage capacity, material construction, equipment access, and functional design are met.
Superior Protection – Insulation will not sag or delaminate from the walls due to the strong chemical bond between the aluminum and the insulation. Heaters and/or heat trace tape can provide proven freeze protection.
Bottom-line, when time and money matter, install a Dura Fold® Enclosure every time!
For unheated units, replace the “H” in the part# with an “L”. Pad size=inside Dimensions + 12″.

Hot Box® Fiberglass Enclosures
Hot Box® Fiberglass Enclosures are hand crafted to a yacht quality finish to
ensure they remain both aesthetically pleasing and meet the needs of your
project. The enclosures are built from only the highest quality fiberglass and
gelcoat material. The design incorporates bonded foam insulation, and is built
to enclose most backflows available on the market. Offering the most
comprehensive line of heated and unheated sizes in the market, all standard
fiberglass enclosures meet the latest ASSE 1060 performance standards–ensuring
that you are purchasing from a dependable source. Benefits include: Enduring
Quality – Yacht quality finish with a UV stabilized marine grade gelcoat
provides
years of protection for your equipment. Reliable Insulation – All Hot Box
models come with spray foam insulation. Spray foam
promotes 100% bonding with the interior wall of the enclosure, preventing
deformation in freeze/thaw conditions. Unlike board foam insulation, spray
foam insulation will not delaminate and remains firmly affixed to the
enclosure’s walls. Better Choices – Many different styles and sizes of
fiberglass models are available to quickly meet your needs. Optional
Accessories- Add a vent, fan, or alarm to your fiberglass enclosure to make it
suitable for a pump or other equipment that needs to be kept cool.

Peace of Mind – ASSE 1060 certification ensures that requirements for
structural strength, drainage capacity, material construction, equipment
access, and functional design are met.
Superior Freeze Protection – Insulation will not sag or delaminate from the
walls due to the strong chemical bond between the fiberglass and the
insulation. Wall-mounted heaters are installed above the discharge point to
provide better long-term performance and safety.
Note: Standard fiberglass color is beige (optional colors are available-see
page 51 for details).

Installation:
1. Provide applicable GFI protected power, UL STND. 943-NEMA 3R, inside
enclosures requiring heat. Mount at least 8″ above any discharge point and
near the pipe riser on the enclosure access side or install per local code.
2. Pour a full concrete pad 4″ thick around valve, allowing a minimum 1″
radial space between riser and pad or install on a “Glass PadTM”.
3. Place Hot Rok® Enclosure over the valve onto the pad or footer.
4. Use a masonry bit to drill through anchor hinge. Insert concrete screws
and bolt firmly to concrete.
5. Mark and mount locking hasp.
6. Mark and mount support rod anchor.
7. For heated enclosures using a self regulating heat trace tape, secure tape
to valve with pipe ties or fiberglass/electrician’s tape. No pipe insulation
is necessary. The Hot Rok® Enclosure provides the necessary insulation.
8. Plug the heat source into the specified circuit/receptacle, after
verifying proper voltage.
9. Lower and secure hasp to staple via pad lock (padlock not included).

PolyRok® Enclosures
Installation:
1. Provide applicable GFI protected power, UL STND. 943-NEMA 3R, inside
enclosures requiring heat. Mount at least 6″ above any discharge point and
near the pipe riser on the enclosure access side or install per local code.
2. Pour a full concrete pad 4″ thick around valve, allowing a minimum 1″
radial space between riser and pad or install on a “Glass PadTM”.
3. Place PolyRok® Enclosure over valve and onto the pad or footer.
4. Mark locking staple. Position on concrete.
5. Use a masonry bit to drill through anchor hinge. Insert concrete screws
and bolt firmly to concrete.
6. For heated enclosures using a self regulating heat trace tape, secure tape
to valve with pipe ties or fiberglass/electrician’s tape. No pipe insulation
is necessary. The PolyRok® Enclosure provides the necessary insulation.
7. Plug the heat source into the specified circuit/receptacle, after
verifying proper voltage.
8. Lower and secure staple via pad lock (padlock not included).

Frequently Asked Questions
Are Hot Box® Enclosures ASSE 1060 certified?
Yes, standard Hot Box® Enclosures have been lab tested and ASSE 1060 certified
for vertical roof load (100 lbs/ft2) capacities, freeze protection, drainage
aptitude and material construction.
Custom enclosures are not certified to the ASSE 1060 standard due to the
timeline required to qualify a new unit. However, custom enclosures are
manufactured with the same quality materials and methods as our standard units
which meet the necessary requirements set forth by ASSE 1060.
Do I need a heated or unheated enclosure, or what ASSE class enclosure do I
need?
This question is best answered by comparing the lowest average winter
temperature at your location to the definition of the ASSE Class ratings. See
below:
Class I – Freeze Protection Enclosures (Heated): Designed and constructed to
maintain a minimum internal temperature of 40°F with external temperatures as
low as -30°F.
Class II – Freeze Retardant Enclosures (Insulated Non-Heated): Designed and
constructed to be installed in locations with minimum temperature of 33°F.
Class III – Non-Freeze Protection Enclosures (Uninsulated Non-Heated):
Designed and constructed to provide system security for components when
freezing temperatures are not a consideration.
Can you manufacture custom size enclosures? If so, what are the maximum
dimensions?
We can create custom sizes with our aluminum sectional and Dura Fold®
Enclosures. Please speak with your area sales representative for dimensions.
Custom sectional aluminum enclosures are limited to a maximum interior width
of 117″ and a maximum interior height of 106.5″ with the length being
unlimited.
Custom Dura Fold® Enclosures are limited to a maximum top surface area of 22
sq ft (3168 sq in) or less and a maximum interior length of 90″ and height of
66″.
What is the largest removable access panel?
Due to weight constraints set by ASSE 1060 3.3.3 specification, 44″ W x 77 ½”
H is the largest removable access panel.
When a wider opening is required two 36″ W x 72 ½” H dual hinged access doors
will give you a 72″ W x 72 ½” H opening.
Will field penetrations affect the structural integrity or freeze protection
of the enclosure?
The structural integrity will not be affected when putting holes in an
enclosure (maximum size of 12″ diameter). However, it is important to not
modify any of the corners or seams of a Hot Box (where two different surfaces
meet), since this will reduce the structural integrity of a Hot Box®
Enclosure. When in doubt or for special requirements, please contact our
Customer Service Team.
To minimize heat loss it is recommended you make the hole ½” larger than the
pipe diameter. Then after installation apply expanding foam (found at any
hardware store) around the perimeter of the penetration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is it necessary to have 3″ insulation (R19) in the roof or the walls?
Hot Box® Heaters and 1 ½” (R10) insulation are more than sufficient to
maintain an interior temperature of 40°F (4.4°C) and protect equipment from
external temperatures as low as -30°F (-34.4°C) in accordance with ASSE 1060
3.6.1-3.
Some competitors require 3″ of insulation due to the use of less efficient
slab mounted heaters.
If desired, 3″ (R19) insulation is available for an additional fee.
What is the recommended slab size for Hot Box® Enclosures?
The slab should be 12″ larger than the interior dimensions of the enclosure.
The minimum recommended slab thickness is 4″.
What are the standard heater electrical connection recommendations?
Contractors other than Hot Box® are responsible for the installation of the
G.F.I. protected service and receptacles (mounted a min. of 9″ above the
slab).
We recommend that each heater be on separate 20 amp circuits. Separate
circuits help provide redundancy in the event that one circuit fails.
All installations must be in accordance with local and national codes.
What is the wind load rating for Hot Box enclosures?
All standard fiberglass enclosures are suitable for wind speeds up to 120 mph.
All standard Sectional Aluminum, Dura Fold® and Modular Enclosure sizes up to
36″W x 105″L x 64″H inside dimensions (i.e., LA036105064) and smaller are
suitable for speeds up to 120 mph. Standard sizes larger than 36″W x 105″L x
64″H are suitable for use in areas where the design wind speed is 80 mph or
less.
Hot Box® Enclosures have not been certified to meet the wind-borne debris
impact requirements in areas within a few miles of the coast (e.g. Florida
Building Code).
Does Hot Box have three phase and explosion-proof heater options?
Hubbell can provide a three phase and explosion-proof heater comparable to the
conventional heater in the standard Hot Boxes. Longer time lead times and
higher costs will apply compared to the regular units. Please contact your
local representative or the Hubbell Water Market Customer Service team for
further detail.
Is there a Stainless Steel Hot Box option?
No. We provide Aluminum, Fiberglass, and Plastic options.
Is there a marine aluminum Hot Box option?
Yes, we can make an aluminum Hot Box with 5052 Marine Grade aluminum (.050″ or
.125″). Please contact your local representative or the Hubbell Water Market
Customer Service team for further details.
Can Hot Box be used for non-backflow applications?
Yes, Hot Boxes can be used for many applications including but not limited to
Pumps (See Pump Guard Enclosures), Water Tanks, and other valves and fluid
conveying devices.
Are Hot Box enclosures water-tight?
No, ASSE 1060 requires backflow preventer enclosures not be water-tight so any
excess water coming from the backflow can drain through the built in drain
ports as necessary. Hot Box enclosures provide the protection needed from the
elements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Installation Guide for Sectional Enclosures
1. Remove the access panels from the sections and place aside. This will
lighten the sections for an easier installation.
2. Place the sections as close to their final positions as possible. The
order of installation is always “Rear” left to right and then “Front” left to
right regardless of the number of sections your enclosure has (4 section
shown).
3. Each section has a male and a female edge. Lift each section (10″-12″) and
position over the mating edge and carefully lower the section into position
keeping it flush against the opposing section’s edge until it seats properly.
4. Place the enclosure in its final position. Do not tear the gasket on the
enclosure base or around the male/female edges while sliding the sections
together or positioning the enclosure.
5. The enclosures must be squared and leveled to assure proper fit of the
sections. The anchor pads within the enclosure double as levelers. If needed,
loosen the bolts attaching the anchor pads to the enclosure. Each pad is
slotted for vertical movement. When level, tighten the pad bolts to the
enclosure wall.
6. Once the enclosure is level and square, set the access panels in place. If
the fit is not right or if light may be seen through any seam, the square of
the enclosure is incorrect and must be reassessed.
7. After all is in place, remove the access panels once more. Install the
interior anchors to secure the enclosure. Anchors and drill bit are included.
56 Hubbell Utility Solutions
Installation Guides
Installation Guide for Sectional Enclosures
8. Determine if your enclosure has Beam clamp or Cam-locks (see diagram
above). Only one type should exist per enclosure.
9. For Beam clamp style enclosures: tighten the Beam clamp eyebolts and wing
nuts (located at the top seam inside the enclosure).
10. For Cam-lock style enclosures: fully engage the Cam-locks (located on the
exterior walls along the seams) using the supplied allen wrench tool. Place
the plastic plugs in the keyholes for protection.
11. Enclosures larger than 72″ wide (inside) will be supplied with 2 x 1
support channels. They are attached with the supplied hardware to the
underside of the horizontal roof bracing. Use a ratchet and a 1/2″ deep socket
to attach.
12. In some cases the size of the enclosure (typically 4 sections and larger)
may cause a slight leaking during inclement weather. To prevent this, Aluminum
tape has been provided (for 4 sections and larger). We recommend that the
contractor lay a bead of silicon caulking in all seams and tape over the
entire seam on the top of the enclosure. This is for situations where the
enclosure is to be a “permanent” structure.
13. For enclosures with four or more sections, square cap plates have been
supplied to cover the areas where the four corners of the sections come
together on the top of the enclosure. Place the caps over the intersection and
screw into place.
14. Hang the heater(s) on the heater plate(s) and plug into the
receptacle(s). 15. Place the access panels in their respective openings and
insert padlocks (not included) through
the handles. Warning! A ground fault circuit interrupting device shall be
installed in the electrical supply circuit to the heater(s). Failure to do so
may result in injury or death. The interior of this enclosure can be a damp
location. Contractors other than Hot Box® are responsible for the installation
of the G.F.I. protected service and receptacles (ref. UL 943, NEMA 3R). When
multiple heaters are required it is recommended that each heater be on a
separate 20 amp circuit. Separate circuits help provide redundancy in the
event that one circuit fails. Consult local and national codes for electrical
connections.

Installation Instructions for Durafold Enclosures
Installation Guide for Standard Dura Fold® Enclosures
In most cases, Dura Fold® Enclosures are shipped assembled. If so, please skip
to step 3. *Note: The receptacles and the concrete slab should be prepared and
fully cured before the enclosure is uncrated. 1. Position the “B” Panels
around the installed valve maintaining clearance between the enclosure
and the installed valve. Do not tear the gasket on the enclosure base while
positioning or joining the enclosure panels. 2. Secure Panel “A” to Panel “B”
using 5/16″ wing nuts. 3. The enclosure must be squared and leveled. The
L-shaped anchor pad brackets supplied with the enclosure double as levelers.
If needed, loosen the bolts attaching the anchor pads to the enclosure. Each
pad is slotted for vertical movement. When level, tighten the pad bolts to the
enclosure wall. If the enclosure is not properly squared and leveled, then the
lids may not close properly. Do not force lids closed as this may cause
damage. 4. To install the concrete anchors in the slab, drill through the
anchor pads and drive each concrete anchor into each drilled hole. Place the
washer and nut on the top of the anchor and tighten. Concrete anchors and a
drill bit are included. 5. If applicable, mount the heater to the heater plate
using the supplied screws. If using heat trace tape, wrap the heat tape in a
spiral or straight line (depending on length) around the pipe risers and
backflow device. Avoid overlapping the heat tape. Secure on 12″ centers using
glass cloth tape or plastic cable ties. Restrain the plug end of the cord to
provide proper strain relief and plug into a G.F.I. protected receptacle. 6.
When vents are present, install the winter cover (according to the season). 7.
Raise hinged front and back panels into place, and latch the internal latches
inside. 8. Close the lid and hang a padlock on each hasp and staple to secure
(padlock not included). Warning! A ground fault circuit interrupting device
shall be installed in the electrical supply circuit to the heater(s). Failure
to do so may result in injury or death. The interior of this enclosure can be
a damp location. Contractors other than Hot Box® are responsible for the
installation of the G.F.I. protected service and receptacles (ref. UL 943,
NEMA 3R). When multiple heaters are required it is recommended that each
heater be on a separate 20 amp circuit. Separate circuits help provide
redundancy in the event that one circuit fails. Consult local and national

Heater and Heat Trace Tape
Heat Trace Tape
Installation:
1. Contractors other than Hot Box® are responsible for the installation of
the G.F.I. protected service and receptacles (ref. UL 943, NEMA 3R). When
multiple heaters are required it is recommended that each heater be on a
separate 15 amp circuit. Separate circuits help provide redundancy in the
event that one circuit fails. All installations to be in accordance with the
local and national codes.
2. Wrap heat trace tape in a spiral or straight line (depending on length of
the heat tape) about the pipe risers and backflow device. Avoid overlapping
the heat tape.
3. Secure heat trace tape on 12″ centers using only glass cloth tape or
plastic cable ties. Restrain the plug end of the cord to provide proper strain
relief.
4. Pipe insulation is not a requirement. If insulating the pipe, use only a
fire resistant thermal insulation, such as fiberglass pipe wrap.
5. Plug cable into 120V ground fault circuit protected outlet.
Maintenance:
Perform the following maintenance prior to installation and at least once per
season, preferably before energizing the system, or immediately after any work
has taken place on the piping system: Check to be sure heating cable is free
from mechanical or thermal damage (cuts or nicks in
the cable insulation from utility knife, use of metal clamps, solder or
overheating). Use Megohmmeter to test each circuit (see below).
Megohmmeter Testing Procedure (Use only 2500VDC megohmmeter for this test):
Check insulation resistance between each lead of the heating cable and the
round ground lug on the power cord plug.
Perform the test by placing one lead of the megohmmeter on the round ground
lug and the other on one of the rectangular power lugs. You should read 1000
megohms minimum.
Perform the test again by checking the opposite rectangular power lug. Again
the reading should be 1000 megohms minimum.
Note: If you read less than 1000 megohms on either lead, the cable needs to be
replaced. Do not attempt to repair the unit. Replace with new product. The
megohm readings along with the test date should be recorded.
Warning! – A ground fault circuit interrupting device shall be installed in
the electrical supply circuit to the heater(s). Failure to do so may result in
injury or death. The interior of this enclosure can be a damp location.
Warning! – Hazard of severe shock, disconnect all power before servicing.
Warning! – Avoid contact. The heater surface is HOT.
