This kit provides the fittings and valve needed to hook a siphon tube to most 1\/2\"-14 NPT\/NPSM water pumps, so antifreeze moves where it needs to go without manual pumping or multiple trips with a jug. Built for a one-time installation, it stays installed year-round, saving time during seasonal changeover.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this kit let my pump circulate antifreeze?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe kit adds a brass three-way valve and pump adapters that attach directly to compatible pump inlet\/outlet ports, allowing a siphon tube to draw antifreeze from a container. Flip the valve and the pump draws antifreeze rather than fresh water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eIncludes brass 3-way valve to redirect flow\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSiphon tubing for continuous antifreeze feed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo pump adapter fittings for common 1\/2\"-14 NPT\/NPSM ports\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTeflon tape for leak-resistant threads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich pumps and systems is it compatible with?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis converter is designed to fit most water pumps that use 1\/2\"-14 NPT or NPSM threaded ports, common on many RV and marine fresh water systems.
