It is made in PVC, sized 1-1\/2 to 2 inch, and is listed for use with the Coates SHA and SHB electric heaters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy the union matters\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe unions are what let a heater come out of the plumbing without a saw. Every service that pulls the heater breaks those joints and remakes them, and the nut and its seal take that abuse. A cracked nut or a tired seal turns into a drip at the heater the moment the system comes back up to pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSplit nut\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA split nut comes apart around the pipe rather than sliding along it, which is what makes it possible to work on a heater that is boxed in by rigid plumbing. It is the reason the design is used at heater connections rather than a plain threaded union.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Coates Heater","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48633712967892,"sku":"CHC-151-7630","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_9ff67199-5eb2-447e-b9fa-bfc6bf10e700.jpg?v=1788812366","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/union-for-st-heaters","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
