Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this nipple work with my Dometic freshwater system?
A: Yes. This Schedule 80 PVC nipple is designed for Dometic freshwater, greywater, and blackwater systems. Verify your current plumbing diameter is 1" before ordering.
Q: What's the difference between Schedule 80 and Schedule 40 PVC?
A: Schedule 80 has thicker walls and a higher pressure rating, making it more durable for RV plumbing applications where vibration and temperature fluctuations are common.
Q: Can I use this nipple to repair a leak in my RV's water line?
A: Yes. If your existing 1" nipple is cracked or leaking, this replacement nipple can be unscrewed and replaced using standard PVC wrenches. Ensure the system is drained before replacement.
