BrianP said:Does the same general parts list work for the rectangular coolers? Or do you need to change the valve size and/or some of the parts list? I'm not seeing the round coolers that much, just round 5's and rectangular 10's.
Mostly, yes. I did need to get a larger nipple; a 2" would be about perfect if you can find it, but I just put mine together with a 2.5" (it's the closest they had) and used a few rubber grommits as spacers between washers. They make the whole assembly just slightly compressible, so if you wrench it in there good there's quite a bit of force holding it in place .
I can post a pic if you like.
Two of my brass parts don't seem to like each other, though; they are leaking at a rate of about 1 drop a minute (with a full cooler), but I wrenched them together so hard I can't get them apart . Can I just toss some epoxy on there and call it a day? I would have really like to just sweated the pipes together, but apparently plastic and blow torches don't agree .
