Plumbing on heatmaster
« on: September 28, 2015, 08:03:51 AM »

Need to connect my 1" logstor pipe to 1" copper stub pipe one on top by the valve and other on bottom of pump. Had them hooked direct and stove shifted and moved during freezing and thawing. Need something more flexible. The lines would stretch out and leak at the compression fitting . Any ideas? Seen the flex stainless but heard it's junk .

I'm now using 1 inch automotive heater hose for a flexible line between the Logstor and boiler plumbing, the heater hose will slide over 1 inch copper with a bit of lube not the pipe and hose, clamp it up and you are done, do not kink the line.
