A:  Hi, Pepe - Not quite sure what you're asking. Please call (661) 257-3923 x 1026 and I can assist. Perhaps you can look at our 3/4" Conversion fitting, part number 18-436-007 on homedepot.com. Also, what kind of tanks do you need?

    Q:is there a 1/2" cts x 1/2" might adapter available ( do they make one?), and what about reducer tees such as 1�1�3_4" or 3/4�3/4�1/2" etc...?

    Answer This Question

    A:  Hi, Steven - Home Flex doesn't make any reducer fittings but you can consider using our conversion fittings to fashion a reduction. Check out part # 18-436-007 (3/4") and 18-436-005 (1/2") and use a 3/4" to 1/2" black iron reducer coupling in between. As for the 1/2" CTS to 1/2" IPS adapter, the item you noted (18-429-101) is the correct part.

          The product - 5 stars. This purchase - 5 stars. Home Depot - 2 stars. I was able to purchase it from HD only because the description included the Mfr's part number, so I knew what I was getting. Four of the last 5 attempts to buy from HD failed because the spec data is either missing, irrelevant, or even inane.

                  Buyer be ware these fitting connections are for copper pipe to dr 11, these are not dr to dr couplings, you must visit Home Flex website and find the mfr part number then call Home Depot to order them.

                  Response from VPC, Home-Flex ExpertNov 7, 2019
                  READER BEWARE! THE ABOVE REVIEW CONTAINS WRONG INFORMATION and should be disregarded. HOME-FLEX Underground fittings ARE NOT for copper pipe. They are for Yellow Poly Gas Pipe as stated in the product name. The reviewer does not understand the basics of poly gas pipe sizing. the letters DR stand for Dimension Ratio. DR is not a material designation. CTS stands for Copper Tube Size. This is a size description and not a material designation. IPS stands for Iron Pipe Size. Again, this is a size description and not a material designation. If you have questions, I invite you to give me a call. (661) 257-3923. I am here from 8-5 Los Angeles Time M-F. Ask for Jon

                  Does exactly what it says couples half inch IPS to 1/2 inch CTS yellow gas pipe, just make sure that's what you need IPS to CTS.
