By assembly and size

2" double check backflow cover

2" double check backflow cover sizing starts with the assembly on the tag. At 2", 7 double check assemblies from the brands we pattern for are common: Watts 007 / LF007, Febco 850 / 850U / LF850, Zurn Wilkins 350XL, Zurn Wilkins 950XLT2, Ames LF2000B / 2000B, Apollo / Conbraco DC4A / DCLF4A, and Deringer (Ames) 20. The price list maps this pipe size to 3 stock covers, and the published dimensions below say which one to pull.

What "2" double check" covers on a counter

Double check valve. At 2" the assemblies your customers bring in are Watts 007 / LF007, Febco 850 / 850U / LF850, Zurn Wilkins 350XL, Zurn Wilkins 950XLT2, Ames LF2000B / 2000B, Apollo / Conbraco DC4A / DCLF4A, and Deringer (Ames) 20. They are not the same size: the Zurn Wilkins 350XL is 16" end to end and the Deringer (Ames) 20 is 22.3", so "a 2" double check" is not a single envelope.

The stock covers for 2"

The April 2026 price list maps 2" to 30 × 24 (DS3024), 36 × 24 (DS3624), and 42 × 24 (DS4224). The table below orders them closest fit first for each assembly: the cover should clear the end-to-end length across both shutoff handles with room to close at the base.

The base can close

A double check does not discharge, so the cover can close fully to the pad. That holds ground heat in and gives wind nothing to lift.

When to measure instead

Unions, strainers, OS&Y gates, and wall-tight mounts all move an assembly off its spec sheet. If the tag is gone or the install is odd, measure it or send photos for a custom cover. For the type as a whole see double check covers; for another size, start at the fitment hub.

Sub Zero Covers sells through distributors only. Distributor accounts see pricing and availability in the portal; everyone else orders through their supply house, or applies for distributor access.

Common questions

Which cover fits a 2" double check?
One of 30 × 24 (DS3024), 36 × 24 (DS3624), and 42 × 24 (DS4224), chosen by the assembly's end-to-end length. The table above names the closest fit for each double check at this size.
Do all 2" double check assemblies take the same cover?
Not always. At this size the published lengths run from 16" (Zurn Wilkins 350XL) to 22.3" (Deringer (Ames) 20). Order by model.
Is this a heated enclosure?
No. Sub Zero Covers are insulated, unheated covers (R-13 standard, R-30 extreme weather). They are not ASSE 1060 listed enclosures. Where a spec calls for a Class I heated enclosure, ask sales before quoting.
