Specs on freshwater lines

Post by jms02050 »

Hi - I'm in the process of replacing the faucet in my head. Looks like the new faucet's inlets are a bit shorter than what's currently there so I need to extend the supply lines. I didn't see any identifying marks on the existing freshwater lines - not sure if they're Whale, what size, etc. Does anyone know the specs and/or a source for the freshwater supply lines? I was looking at Defender's site and saw way too many options...

Thx.

My 96 was done in all 15mm Seatech. I replaced the hot water heater, the rear shower and some other areas this winter and either the 15mm Whale or Seatech work interchangeably. I bought everything from Defender. You just have to make sure if your boat is plumbed with the metric (15mm- most common) or the 1/2".

Hope this helps.

Hi Robb. Visited the boat tonight. Using a flashlight and mirror I was able to find some hose stamped with 15mm. Looks like Seastar. Thanks for the info.
