Hi Guys,
I'm changing a hot water cylinder with a mate (it's his house). I've done one of these before (my own) and used ptfe tape on the threaded fittings. Worked ok, but had to remove and refit the cold feed fitting after it leaked a bit first time. I've seen this liquid ptfe stuff and it seems like a briilliant idea. Stick it on the threads, do up the fittings reasonably tight, sorted.
Does it really work like that? Or am I better using something else?
Cheers
