Aloha Jim, Thanks for the reply and I found the spec sheet for my SU120U-1 heater and it shows #4 as the cold water input and #2 that feeds the collector. Mahalo, doogdoog

Aloha, Thanks for the replies and today I removed the four dip tubes and measured them: #1 is 2 inches long (hot) #2 is 52 inches long ( to collector) #3 is 21 inches long ( from collector) #4 is 55 inches long (cold) I would think that # 4 would be the cold since it is the longest. I...

Aloha, I have a Rheem (Sun Earth I think) SE 120gal universal water heater and want to be sure of the connection on top of the heater. I will try to post a picture of the top showing the connections and I have numbered them. I will plug the two solar connections because I will use the...

Aloha, I have a Nibco 3/4" copper elbow that reads CL607-2 which one side, the smaller od will sweat into another fitting and the other side will go over a 3/4" copper pipe. I read this online and was wondering if this is correct because when I insert the sweat end into another copper...

Thank you, I will go with the brass.

Thanks for replying and I will go with the brass.

Aloha, I am going to change out my water heater (leaking) and the piping are all copper or brass except for the nipple going into and out of the solar heater which are dielectric nipples. From what I read on the web, it would be fine to use brass nipples instead of dielectric nipples. I just...

Aloha jadnashua, My tank is solid now but it is not sitting on the 3 knobs. I bought some transparent looking gizmos that you stick on the bottom of items that you don't want sitting directly on what you don't want it to sit on. It is round and about 1/2" in diam. and 1/4"...

Aloha martyd, I hope squeak is not a "feature" of the valve, but if it is, I am going to change the valve to something else. Mahalo, doogdoog

Aloha jadnashua, The last time I checked the water pressure, it was about 65psi. but I will check it again. I'll try to tighten it a little at a time (maybe one day at a time) to allow the gasket to compress slowly and see what happens. I'll post a follow up after I am...

Aloha, I recently purchased a Toto C744EF.10-01 bowl with the ST743S-01 tank and was wondering if the fill valve should squeak when it shuts off. I originally purchased a C744E-01 bowl and ST743S-01 tank but I returned the bowl because it had something clanking inside of it. I decided...

Aloha Terry, Congratulations and they make a sweet couple. It is soooo hot and humid today and that water sure looks good. Mahalo, doogdoog

Aloha Terry, Thanks for the reply and this is a great site and will recommend it to my family and friends. Your hair looks different (or is that a coconut tree in the background), must be the Hawaiian sun, LOL. That must be your beautiful wife and I hope that you all had a great...

Aloha wjcandee, Thanks for the reply and sorry about posting the online source, wasn't thinking. LOL Yes, the rough in is measured from the finished wall to the closet bolts so it looks like it will work. I don't understand how you would place the spacers under the flange if...

Aloha, I have been lurking on this site and learned many interesting things and have some questions about a Toto CST744S#01. My existing toilet is an older Kohler 12" RI that was installed in a new building in 1986. It started to leak from the base so I changed the wax (flange is about...
