How to Read Vari-Pitch™
.
The patented Vari-Pitch™ vial was developed to assist
in setting slope/pitch on projects such as plumbing, driveways,
patios, sidewalks, landscaping, gutter installation and
more. Whenever drainage or flow of water is a factor in
your next project, using an Empire level with the Var-Pitch™
vial is extremely helpful.
.
Level Position See photo 1
Vial markings indicate level and inches-per-foot-of-pitch
from 1/8" to 1/2" per foot in 1/8" increments.
The bubble in the vial indicates level when the right
edge of the bubble is touching the "zero" line.
.
Pitch Position See photo 2
When right edge of bubble touches the 1/4" mark,
the pitch or slope runs high to right, low to the left
at a rate of 1/4" per foot. Example: A 4 foot length
of drain pipe would drop 1" from right to left, water
flow to
the left.
