can you post the final picture. And why did you have to add a pipe extension. Couldn't you simply replace the dielectric union. And why did you cut the pipe. Apologies if I am missing something here.

I cut the pipe because that is how you install that end of the dielectric union (see picture with tape). The pipe "extension" is simply a male to male connector be cause my dielectric union and water...

Thanks Michael. It took me a lot longer than I wanted it to, but ultimately it worked out ok. 1.5 years later and the water heater is still running like a champ. So it at least put off the $1k or so we...

AWESOME. Glad you got it done quickly. Glad my hours of research + realizing the tools/parts I needed helped save someone some time.
View ArticleRe: Fixing Low Hot Water Pressure Problems by Replacing Your Dielectric Union
this may be a dumb question but why couldn't you just replace the corroded part of the dielectric union so you didn't have to cut anything. or is the whole union shot once it corrodes???
View ArticleRe: Fixing Low Hot Water Pressure Problems by Replacing Your Dielectric Union
