I rarely write reviews but this one deserved one. I just had a sprinkler system installed and was in a conundrum on what to do to cover it. Just on a whim I decided to see if such a thing existed. Low and behold here one was. I purchased it with the hopes it would fit. Of course I measured but you never know until you get it. I had to cut both of the pre-indented areas for the pipe on top. I'm an old lady with not many resources but was able to use my mini hack saw and utility knife to cut them out. Once done it fit perfectly. It is very sturdy black plastic. The vendor shipped it quickly. It should definitely extend the life of the pump. I'll be sure to tell the vendor who installed my sprinkler system - he could pass the word. Or better yet perhaps include it as an option for the job. Bravo on this item!
