Renator RV City Water Inlet — Brushed Stainless Steel 3" Flange with Check Valve, All-Metal Replacement

Renator's all-metal RV city water inlet is a stainless-steel replacement inlet with built-in dust cap and check valve designed to give a durable, leak-resistant connection for RVs, campers, trailers and marine craft.

This compact inlet replaces worn or plastic water fill flanges with a corrosion-resistant brushed stainless steel unit that fits standard city water hookups. It combines a universal 3" flange, a 1/2" internal threaded pipe connection, and an integrated check valve to reduce backflow risk, while the metal dust cap keeps contaminants out when not in use. Installation is straightforward and backed by U.S.-based support and a one-year warranty.

How easy is this inlet to install on my RV?

Installation is designed for DIYers and technicians alike: remove the old flange, apply plumbing tape to the threads, and screw the Renator inlet into place. The universal flange aims to match existing hole patterns so you typically won’t need to re-drill mounting points.

• Remove existing screws and flange, then unscrew old inlet.
• Wrap Teflon/plumbing tape on the male threads for a tight seal.
• Screw inlet into the fitting and secure the 3" flange with existing screws.
• Ensure correct flange angle so check valve aligns properly.

What materials and features help this last longer than plastic options?

The inlet is machined from brushed stainless steel for strength and corrosion resistance where moisture and outdoor exposure are constant. A metal dust cap protects the opening, and the integrated check valve helps prevent backflow that can shorten internal components.

• Brushed stainless-steel construction resists rust and wear.
• All-metal dust cap blocks dirt and UV exposure when idle.
• Built-in check valve reduces backflow and contamination risk.
• Metal threads pair with plumbing tape for a secure, long-lasting seal.

Will this fit my existing water hose and hookups?

The Renator inlet uses common RV sizing so it connects directly to standard garden hoses and city water fittings. The flange diameter and internal thread size are designed for broad compatibility, but correct threading orientation is important to ensure the check valve functions properly.

• 3" flange designed to match standard RV mounting patterns.
• 1/2" internal threaded connection for plumbing compatibility.
• Compatible with standard garden hoses and RV city water hookups.
• Verify flange angle and thread direction during installation for proper valve operation.
