I got a propress tool and its great Ilove it, I use to solder all day not any more, count 15 seconds and the fitting is made, I did a 4" repair and I was done so fast it was just silly. I bought the tool the next day and never went back. I wish that someday that the fittings will be avalible just like sweat fittings that will complete the propress deal.

Valves

Thanks for the response Joe, these valves all have the NO/NC switch on the side. The local rep. asked for the date codes and I will get them to him. I can not comment on what is wrong with them, all I know is that the maintenance man would just take the head off and leave the valve open, the valve opening and closing was not essential to the functioning of the heat soooo I guess they wrote on the slip it was fixed. We were never called so I was not able to properly diagnose the real problem. I may be mistaken but I think I remember reading on Taco's site about that switch and some kind of recall. I looked again and could not find anything. But I'll get those date codes and we'll see what happens. Thanks Again

Dose anyone know the story behind the ESP valve I thought I read about a recall, I called my local rep. and he didn't seem to know off hand He going to call me back. Here's my scenario I'll be returning to a job I completed in 2001, I installed 180 3/4 ESP valves. I am going back to start installing A/H Times up bwife is calling more later Thanks in advance

Thank you Brad
