The connector measures 15 inches in length, providing enough flex to accommodate typical water heater rough-in configurations. It is certified lead free in compliance with federal drinking water regulations. Plumbers and plumbing contractors install this fitting during water heater replacement or new installation to create a flexible, corrosion-resistant connection between the heater's inlet and outlet ports and the copper or threaded supply and discharge lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis connector is suited for residential water heater installations where a flexible stainless steel line is preferred over rigid copper or CPVC stub-outs. The 15 inch length works well in standard utility closet and basement installations where some offset or vibration isolation is needed. The 3\/4 inch FIP x 3\/4 inch FIP configuration matches the threaded ports found on most residential tank-style water heaters. It is appropriate for both hot and cold side connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3\/4 inch FIP x 3\/4 inch FIP fittings on both ends for direct connection to standard water heater ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e15 inch flexible length accommodates typical water heater rough-in offsets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBraided stainless steel construction resists corrosion and kinking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLead free certified in compliance with federal safe drinking water law\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlexible design provides vibration isolation between the heater and supply lines\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement flexible connector for residential tank-style water heaters with 3\/4 inch threaded FIP inlet and outlet ports.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eInstallation should be performed by a licensed plumber in accordance with applicable local plumbing codes and IPC guidelines. Shut off the water supply and allow the water heater to cool before disconnecting existing lines. Hand-tighten the FIP fittings first, then use a wrench to snug — do not overtighten, as this can damage the fitting seats. Inspect for leaks at both connections after restoring water pressure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/4 inch FIP x 3\/4 inch FIP\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Braided Stainless Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCertification\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lead Free, Federal Law Compliant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3.6 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9 per unit of measure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: Homewerks Worldwide LLC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 7213-15-34-1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"HOMEWERKS WORLDWIDE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51525385650482,"sku":"7213-15-34-1","price":156.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/0577b7e3152dda2c0227e3b77c84499f.jpg?v=1785472372","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/homewerks-7213-15-34-1-water-heater-connector-3-4-fip-15-in-ss","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
