Reticulation Termite Reveal: Locating & Exposing Your Barrier System

Before any reticulation system can be inspected or refilled, its manifold, meter box and drip points need to be found and safely exposed. Here's how our technicians reveal your system across Melbourne's South East.

How We Locate & Expose Your Reticulation System

A termite reticulation system can't be inspected, tested, or refilled until its manifold, meter box and drip points have been found and safely revealed. This is the groundwork every refill and recharge service depends on.

Locating the Manifold & Meter Box

Our technicians start by tracing the reticulation system's manifold and meter box location using original installation records and site markers. This confirms exactly where the injection points and drip-line network sit before any ground is disturbed.

Safely Exposing Drip Points

Where drip points or inspection points have become covered by turf, garden beds, or paving over time, our team carefully excavates around them by hand. This avoids damaging the perforated pipework while restoring safe access to every point along the barrier line.

Confirming System Access for Injection

Once revealed, each access point is checked to confirm it can accept the injection pump fittings and hold pressure during recharge. Any point that can't be safely accessed is flagged and documented before proceeding to inspection or refill.

Restoring the Site After Reveal

After the manifold, meter box and drip points have been located and the system assessed, access points are reinstated so the surrounding garden bed, turf, or paving is left tidy and ready for the next stage of inspection or refill work.
