Sub Zero Covers
Three green insulated backflow covers in a gravel bed outside an office building — a large double-check detector assembly, a mid-size assembly, and a small companion cover.

By assembly and size

2" RP backflow cover

2" RP backflow cover sizing starts with the assembly on the tag. At 2", 10 RP assemblies from the brands we pattern for are common: Watts 009 / LF009, Watts 909 / LF909, Febco 825Y / LF825Y, Febco 860 / 860U / LF860, Zurn Wilkins 975XL2, Zurn Wilkins 375XL, Ames LF4000B / 4000B, Apollo / Conbraco RP4A / RPLF4A, Apollo / Conbraco RP40, and Deringer (Ames) 40. The price list maps this pipe size to 3 stock covers, and the published dimensions below say which one to pull.

What "2" RP" covers on a counter

Reduced pressure zone (RP / RPZ). At 2" the assemblies your customers bring in are Watts 009 / LF009, Watts 909 / LF909, Febco 825Y / LF825Y, Febco 860 / 860U / LF860, Zurn Wilkins 975XL2, Zurn Wilkins 375XL, Ames LF4000B / 4000B, Apollo / Conbraco RP4A / RPLF4A, Apollo / Conbraco RP40, and Deringer (Ames) 40. They are not the same size: the Zurn Wilkins 375XL is 16" end to end and the Deringer (Ames) 40 is 22.1", so "a 2" RP" 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.

Relief valve drainage

Every assembly on this page has a relief valve that discharges downward, and on the Febco 825Y from the side of the body. Leave that path open. Close the cover to the pad around the assembly, never under the relief port.

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 RP 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" RP?
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 RP at this size.
Do all 2" RP assemblies take the same cover?
Not always. At this size the published lengths run from 16" (Zurn Wilkins 375XL) to 22.1" (Deringer (Ames) 40). 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.
