Alright, I decided to make a separate thread for this so I could get some more feedback. Is there any reason I should get the Fleck 7000SXT over the Fleck 5600SXT if I have 3/4" pipes? Thanks for any and all info!
Are you aware of the recall of the 7000? Has Fleck started to ship them again?
Who knows if websites are keeping track of recalled units.
A couple of web sites mentioned that the 7000SXT units were on back order. The notes I saw were posted in late February. I'm not sure if the back-order has started to clear yet, or not.
The 7000SXT valve was on hold for a much shorter time than expected, and the current lead time is excellent. All is good.
So now they're changing it...The 7000 is basically bulletproof and has become a favorite among commercial users for its extrme capability.
So now they're changing it...
Yeah, I should have added a smiley or something at the end to show my tongue was in my cheek. I remember you or someone else mentioned that they were behind on 7000s because they had changed it and were just getting deliveries going. If I were buying a new valve today, it would almost certainly be a 7000.Not sure what that means.
I hope you had pencil and paper ready I'd love to know what he said...asked what's wrong with the 7000, and he said "Similar to the US Congress. Do you have pencil and paper ready."
lol, trust me, I wanted to say I have a pencil and paper ready but I thought he would think I'm being too big of an ass. I did ask what he meant, though. Wonder if he replies. I was literally getting ready to order one from another site when he emailed me and told me that. Wtf.
This is awkward, but...
