Then I decided I wanted to have redundancy and keep the pipe interior dry to help prevent corrosion (it is old school (not SS)). <br><br>My question: Is the air void that will exist between the 2 gland fittings a concern? Think empty pipe with both ends capped. I'm thinking not...<br><br><br>Thanks,<br>Steve<br>_______________________________________________<br>Personal_Submersibles mailing list<br><a href="mailto:Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org" ymailto="mailto:Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org">Personal_Submersibles@psubs.org</a><br><a href="http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles" target="_blank">http://www.psubs.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/personal_submersibles</a><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
