Bottom Distributor .010″ – .013″ slotsUsed to make Distributor Tube with a piece of 3/4″ SDR21 PVC Pipe ( gluing the distributor to the PVC pipe with PVC Cement ).This 1.05″ O.D. pipe size is used on all new residential valves.Some older valves used the 13/16″ O.D. tubes, but you can still use the larger 1.05″ distributor and adapt to your old valve by gluing ( use PVC Cement ) a 6″ section of your old 13/16″ tube into the center of a piece of 3/4″ PVC pipe that is Schedule 40.You don’t use a “coupler”, but the actual pipe, 3/4″ Schedule 40 PVC used with the MD1236, since the INNER diameter matches the OUTER diameter of the 13/16″ pipe it will fit tightly inside the new 3/4″ PVC ( must be Schedule 40 ). Your old distributor pipe can usually be a guide to the length or height your new pipe will need to be ( And it must be Touching the Bottom of the Tank ).If the Valve is a Fleck 5600, then you will need the new tube to be equal to the top of the resin tank ( not more than 1/4″ above ).It is helpful to “round” or “smooth” the top edges of the new PVC pipe with sand paper so that insertion into the valve does not damage the distributor o-ring in the valve body. Both Top/Bottom Distributor are high-efficiency Filtration Water Softeners Parts.
