I have my kettle to which I need to attach a 3 ball valve, a heating element and closing button made of stainless steel instead of thermometer. My question is do I need to put Teflon tape on the thread of each of the elements in I will attach to my kettle? Why is the Teflon tape needed? Finally, how often do I need to unmount these 3 pieces from my kettle and remove the Teflon tape?
