The union is what lets the valve be broken out for service without cutting pipe, and it is also where a housing usually shows its age: a hairline crack around the union threads, or a weep that no amount of retightening cures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOnce a plastic housing is cracked it is replaced rather than repaired. While the valve is open, renew any o-ring or gasket that was disturbed, since a new housing sealing against a flattened old seal simply moves the leak.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Caretaker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48628756742356,"sku":"CTK-201-908","price":151.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_caa75d0a-606f-4b9c-9f62-024b9d470dfc.jpg?v=1788749782","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/top-housing-with-threaded-union-adapter","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
