This thread has perfect timing, salon unit quit suddenly. I have the dometic PR8x relay box, quick swap of the galley trigger to the salon spot and boom!!! Pump kicked on. In the meantime I pulled the manifold off the pump, removed all fittings, cleaned the threads, applied restorseal and vinyl tape. I trimmed the hose ends and replaced all the clamps. I also observed 80% of the clamps to the AC unit(s) drains rusted through so new hose and clamps for those this week.
One thing I observed and found extremely frustrating is the Breeze clamps that I purchased have three different size screw heads despite all being the same diameter clamp, anyone experience this? I could understand across a line of mixed brands but they're ALL Breeze and were bought from the same place at the same time

Are they the regular or 316 stainless?
I have beome a distributor for the AWAB clamps because my suppliers will not keep the good ones in stock.
Maybe we can do an HOF special?Scott

It also helps using solid band clamps not perforated.
