ABSTRACT:
Certain embodiments of the present invention provide a cover assembly for an in-floor fitting that includes a trim flange, an access door mounting member, first and second access doors, and a plurality of seal members. A first seal member seals against moisture infiltration between the access doors when the access doors are at their closed positions. A second seal member is interposed between the mounting member and the trim flange to seal against water infiltration between these components. A third seal member is interposed between the trim flange and a floor surface to seal against water infiltration between the trim flange and the floor surface.
