Overview

The TT FLEX 24-Inch Water Heater Connector Kit is designed to simplify the path from your water supply to the heater. A polished stainless steel braided exterior pairs with a robust internal hose, offering a balance of strength and flexibility that helps you navigate tight cabinets and awkward corners with ease.
