When you pull air through the filter the area around the outlet flange gets most of the air draw through it. So the bottom half of the filter still has fresh charcole. With this filter you can change the outlet flange to the other side to potentially use the other half of the unused charcole. Most filter don't have this option.

Paying an extra $20 for the whole pump is not going to save you any work, and you will still have to buy the flanges separately. The pump is heavy duty cast iron and when I took mine apart, I didn't see any reason to replace the entire thing, but it was only about 6 years old. If you have an older pump, you might have considerably more rust, etc, and replacing the whole pump makes sense. By the way, I recommend ordering the gaskets from Home Depot if you have one near you, as they were about 1.38 compared to 10.51 from Amazon. What's up with that???? I'm a thrifty person so this is how I think. Good luck! Paying an extra $20 for the whole pump is not going to save you any work, and you will still have to buy the flanges separately.

I would suggest to get new brass fittings and used telfon plumber's tape. I got mine at Lowes, Home Depot, and Menards

you have to unscrew the nozzle and flip the connector/seals upside down, re-insert and re-tighten. See the image of the instructions on the product page product images.

It is very simple. I set the unit in pace. Next I hooked up the drain, Then I pre-drilled holes in the flange. Last I secured the flange to the studs with coated screws. It was a piece of cake.

I have no idea, I'd call Rheem Tech support. They were very helpful during my install. Personally, I don't think pressure variations would be an issue, but who am I to know?

Great question. I think it's a great product with awful instructions, and extra fittings that confuse people even more. I had to talk to the manufacturer to straighten it all out, and -- SURPRISE! -- it's actually an easy install. I wrote up my notes, in this review:http://www.amazon.com/review/R19TEJ9EXUVK2W/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B0095SNHBC

It is easier then the old one. When you take out the old one remember to take off the 90 degree elbow and use it on the bottom of the new one. This way you will have more room to turn it in the back of the compartment, if it is as small as mine was. The top line is hot and the lower line is cold. There should be a cover plate in the back of your existing unit, you need to take it off to access the water lines, it is a tight fit. One can be turned by hand, but the lower one (cold water) is a little difficult, you may have to use a wrench to get it to turn at first. I hope that this helps and is what you are asking.

None that I know of. The only way is to change the hose. That is what I did.

The flanges are specially made for the tracks, though I suppose you could drill through the metal and go into a stud. Just seems a very expensive option if you aren't using the tracks.

Yes I had the same problem an I changed it. But you need to know how to. It's not easy to replace and you'll need an adhesive sticker tape for a good adhesion.

There are pre-drilled holes on the right side of the cabinet. So changing it would be difficult.

You can change them yourself. There are even videos on YouTube that show the process. Its very easy! I would waste time and money taking it to a service center for that. Hope that helps.

Dude use force to turn the screws in. Of course its a tight fit cause its only supposed to be done once and thats it ya know. Its not intended fpr those screws to come out. Dont put soap on them or oil just screw the suckers in.

I have knocked one off when I was using the flange set up that came with my pump but I purchased single piece ones they do a lot better don't have to worry about it falling off and making a mess.

I am not a plumber. The only thing I know you can change is the temp of the water. I would think the water flow depends on your plumbing. Hope this helps.

I wrestled with this, and am frustrated that the Feit installation instructions don't talk about this. But I found the secret (for me at least)..... inside the can are two pairs of little metal L-shaped "ears" across from each other. (the "clips" that others refer to) By default they are not folded out... they're flush with the metal can. With a screwdriver, bend them out 90 degrees. Then the springs on the light fixture slide in to those ears and hold it tight in place. If you have can lights in your bathrooms or closets that have a solid glass waterproof plate over them, those plates mount the same way and you can look at how the ears work.
