Shipped to my broke
November 05, 2021

After I scabbed together the pieces from the old part, I did replace the valve. I was going to send it back because it was broke when they sent it to me, but I found a good youtube video showing how to fix it.

Do yourself a favor , drain the tank while reading instructions, the shorter the hose the faster the drain time. flush the tank for extra piece of mind. You will enjoy hot water in no time like a Cave man that just figured out how to make fire.

Takes some experience with plumbing.
June 23, 2018

Installing this part requires the installer to have some plumbing experience with iron pipe installs and handling compression fittings. It would be easy for a novice to damage the new part.
