Plumbing fittings

Post by Diverted Income »

Whats the preference for water supply fittings to feed generator and A/C, bronze or Marelon?
Downside to either (other than cost) ?
Thanks!

Bronze for sure. Some will say plastic in salt water apps due to the possibility of corrosion but I suggest that's more of a lack of maintenance such as regular anode replacement, and improper installation.
