How It Works

The FL11206 Fleck Union Gasket fits snugly between the union fittings of your Fleck water softener valve. Its role is to create a watertight barrier that prevents leaks where two components join. This small but vital part maintains consistent pressure within the system and stops untreated water from escaping. Without a quality gasket, your valve connections may fail, leading to inefficiencies or costly repairs.

By providing a reliable seal, this union gasket helps your water softener operate as intended, ensuring softened water flows efficiently through your home or business plumbing.

Once installed, you will immediately notice a secure connection with no leaks at the valve union. In the days and weeks following installation, the gasket’s durable material maintains its integrity, preventing moisture seepage and ensuring consistent system performance. Over the long term, this gasket requires minimal maintenance and retains its sealing properties under normal operating conditions, contributing to the longevity of your water softener system.
