It is listed as a service part for the Waterco Hydrostorm pump range.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy unions get replaced\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe union is the joint that lets you take a pump out without cutting into the plumbing. It also takes the strain every time somebody tightens the nut, so the threads crack, the collar splits, and the o-ring flattens and starts to weep. A union that leaks on the suction side pulls air, and a pump that pulls air loses prime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOne half of the union with the o-ring for the joint. If the damage is on both sides of the connection, order two. Hand tighten the nut with the o-ring seated and lubricated; a union does not need a wrench, and over tightening is what breaks most of them.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Waterco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48634691485908,"sku":"89-252-1110","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_9df2cefe-528e-48b7-8dc2-d2da8b012a12.jpg?v=1788836362","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/2-half-union-w-o-ring","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
