I just replaced an old one. I am not sure if you can just put one of these in any tank. Also I have 3 in my house and have replaced them fairly often.

Yes you should be able to do that. When you order a new tank like I did the filter replacement was included. Hope this helps you. All the connections on the new tank were the same as the old one. It was an easy swap.

I would not do that. The jury is still out on silicone and if heat releases cancer causing elements. It's your call...

No, not silicone. I'd like to have some silicone-insulated wire myself and have looked around. Very expensive. This is just ordinary hook-up wire.

Nope. That's why we switched. They're intended for single use. If you sterilize them, they will warp out of shape, and maybe even leach? Go with silicone nipples instead. They can be boiled, nuked and reused over and over. We wound up buying a salvo of Even Flow glass bottles with silicone nipples. They work like a champ.

They say you can but I prefer to sue silicone on all my pots with coating on them. BTW I love the pot makes great chicken and dumplings.

You will need a tee fitting(install in the line going to your existing 3Gal tank.) and some tubing to run between the tee and your new tank. I recommend installing a valve before the tee when you do this, for future use.

No. Get a 50 gal plastic tank and an a water heater. Otherwise start digging and running underground water lines and power....good luck.

I just bought one, waiting for delivery, I think during assembly I will use clear silicone to insure it does not leak. Will have to wait for assembly to determine how and where to use the silicone.

o-rings and plastics will last longer if you avoid using petroleum lubricants, I would use silicon grease.

That will really depend on what you already have. When I bought my tank, I was replacing an existing tank I had. The fitting on the bottom was different than my last tank so I had to purchase additional fittings and some replacement PVC pipe. If you are using this as a replacement, typical fittings and pipe will be required in order to return your well to normal use.

The packaging said yes! Haven't tried it though. Silicone is very versatile.

I would say yes. Just make sure they are equal parts and you have mixed it long enough. When your mixing tool starts to warm up, that is enough. Even mix it a little longer by a few minutes after that if you are keeping close "watch". If you think it had been warm for a minute or two, then I would say that is enough. Silicon is a very slippery substance. I believe you would have no problem getting it out when it is fully set. And it sets up nice and hard.

absolutly not. they make burner covers out of metal. try amazon for metal burner covers---6 inch, 8 , 10, or 12 ? silicone is not for direct heat!!

The combination of the 1/2 gallon containers should yield about a gallon of silicone. Thank you.

No, Make sure you clean the heck out of surface to use epoxy on. Silicon residue will cause problems. Use J-B WELD EPOXY. Play with it first.
