Yes I would buy again

Used to replace an old one. Perfect fit and your customer service is excellent. Anything else I need in what you supply will be ordered from you. Everyone was very helpful. Thank you so much.

I would buy this product and many others again.

Everything about SupplyHouse.com is great. Even when I had issues they took care of me right away and sent the new part out overnight. I have used them on multiple houses and they always have what I need when I need it and get it to me fast.

Manabloc system

I have always liked the manabloc system. Its easy to use, setup/install and easy to plumb a new or old home. It gives you the convenience to shut one line off and work on just that line while leaving the rest of the house with functioning water supply. Plus it gives each faucet, shower, and toilet its own water supply.

I would buy this product again

Product worked out great as a replacement manabloc for the old grey lever system. New crimp connections are easy to install and provide an alternate method compared to the old compression type.

Ease of installation

I have not yet run water to the manifold yet but I hope to very soon. My greatest regret is not calling to order the product (I ordered it online) because it is packed with four individual packages of PEX fittings (six per package) for a total 24 fittings, but those fittings were three packages of 3/8 inch and one of 1/2 inch (which makes 18 of the 3/8 inch and only six of the 1/2 inch). I had planned to plumb with all 1/2 inch and since this manifold had 18 connections I would using all of them but now only had six of the 1/2 inch fittings. I honestly do not recall reading the description of items "included in the box" (if there was one) to help me clear this up, but it still would have made more sense to include in the box, half of each size, then I would only need to purchase an additional six fittings.

Would have preferred Brass fittings

Am really looking forward to my first PEXCrimp project. I would have preferred if this manifold had come with the brass PEX crimp instead of the PollyAlloy ones or with no fittings at all. The Polly fittings introduce a SIGNIFICANT flow restriction on the PEX runs (from the Viega documentation that comes with the manifold).

Q: ON the 1/2" 3/8" is it possible to use just 1/2" or is it a must to use 3/8 line also?

This particular manabloc is set up with both 1/2" and 3/8" ports: on the 1/2" port you must use the 1/2" tubing and on the 3/8" ports the 3/8" tubing would be necessary. We do sell manablocs that have all 1/2" ports. Please call us at 888-757-4774 if you have questions on that particular one.

Q: Does the Manabloc come with the necessary connections for the PEX to the unit? Or do i need to purchase The nuts and adapters in addition to the unit itself? ex: if i purchase an 18 port crimp system, will i need to purchase 18 nuts with crimp fittings also?

Q: Does the manabloc come with the port fittings when using the clamp system? Or do you have to use the crimp at the manifold?

The crimp port fittings are the same that you would use with the clamp system.
