does it matter how far the shaft is screwed into the knob before installing unit

Per my husband: it does not matter. when you install it, make sure it's closed. When the temp heats up, keep tabs and make sure it is opening how far you want. It will always close, the screw is an adjustment knob for positioning. My husband (who actually reads Instructions) says it comes with really good instructions.

The adjuster is designed to ensure that your vent closes completely when installed. You will need to run it down a bit initially and then adjust accordingly for your specific vent application once installed. The advice to refrigerate the closer is paramount, so that you can accurately adjust for the closed position.

The pin for the knob goes across the entire top of the unit making it very secure. With ordinary use there should be no issues. The ones that are used for demos likely get a lot of abuse.

The outlet and the inlet has 1/2" NPT threads, so as long as the "old plumbing" is 1/2" it should screw in.

I ordered one and found the shaft 1/8 " to 1/4' to long, hence it would not fit correctly in the housing. I returned the item.

After my install I can't see why it would matter but just in case they are referring to your bed length. Run out and measure to see which you have.

The shafts are all the same size for these things 7/32". The knob could also be used on my heater shaft control on my truck. Only until I had trouble with my truck and my stove did it dawn on me these things are standardized.

I think about 1" long it went through a 3/4" drawer face to attach the knob.Best guess.

I believe that it uses a standard 1/4 shaft size control knob. You can get these from just about anywhere. Try MPJA ELECTRONICS. They should have this type as s surplus item.If you have the box, just measure the diameter of the shaft and you can order a replacement knob with that measurment.

K: I just pulled one of the screws from my unit and the screw shaft is 5/8" long. That means for safety sake, a wood surface of no less than 3/4" thick.

No guesses here. I have a model 663LN / 669L. The shaft is too long, by a quarter inch, to clear the housing. I cut the shaft back and then extended the flat side with a Dremel. Once I got it to fit and tried it out... A) it was very quiet and B) it was completely ineffective in moving air out of the shower.

The shaft is right at a half of a inch, there is a few with longer shaft's. This one worked for me.

I don't think so. I use one hand to hold it in place and the other one to tighten the knob. I'm an amateur, but still...

My condo was built in 1979, and it had the old knob units with baseboard heat. I specifically bought these units to replace them, and had no problems installing them. Make sure you follow the instructions when doing so though, because you can easily get the wiring wrong and then the unit won't power up. If you have any concerns, you can always pay a professional electrician to install it, and if they tell you there's an issue then just return the item.

It doesn't matter. You should have enough room to install faucet either way. Faucet comes with a plastic mounting tool. Makes it much easier

I used 1'' and 7/8'' and found that the 1 inch is the way to go..The 7/8'' way the exact size of the shaft and it essentially screwed it self in and took some muscle to do so. I used 1'' on my next 3 taps installed and the shank fell right in and tightened up nicely!!

Sorry, not sure. It wasn't a perfect match to the other knobs in my new house, but close enough.
