Optional Tank Adaptor Instructions
If your system was ordered to include a Tank Tap Adapter you will save time and
may avoid the need for a permit. If not, use normal plumbing procedures.
Begin by draining the
tank and flushing out any
sediment.
The old drain valve may
be thrown away.
With a sharpie, make 2
alignment marks on the
inner pipe.
Make the second
alignment mark here
Bend the pipe so it will point
up with the first alignment
marks
.
Use a pipe bender to avoid
crushing or kinking the pipe.
The tube bend should
b
oth alignment marks.
Note the second mark
in open fitting.
Insert a 5/16” screwdriver into
the union to hold the pipe
curved up into the tank while
checking both alignment
marks.
