You get a straight 1\/2 inch hose barb, a 90-degree elbow barb, and two 1\/2 inch male pipe thread adapters, all sealed with EPDM O-rings. It's the fast way to plumb, drain, and winterize an RV or boat freshwater system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you've ever fought to pull a swollen water line off a barbed fitting in a cramped RV bay or down in a boat's bilge, you already know why the quad port system exists. This Xylem kit gives you four quick-connect quad fittings that snap onto the pump port and lock in place, so you can pop a hose on or off by hand. No wrenches. No cutting a stuck line loose. That convenience matters most in the fall when you're winterizing, and again in spring when you're putting the freshwater system back together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe set covers four of the most common plumbing situations in one box. You get one straight 1\/2 inch hose barb for a clean, direct run of flexible tubing. There's one 90-degree elbow hose barb for the tight corners where a hose would otherwise kink against a bulkhead or the back of a cabinet. And you get two straight 1\/2 inch male pipe thread fittings for the spots where you're tying into rigid plumbing, a threaded manifold, or a strainer. Between those four, most freshwater pump layouts on an RV or a small boat are covered without a second trip to the parts counter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery fitting in the kit seals with an EPDM O-ring. EPDM stands up well to fresh water and to the temperature swings a stored rig sees through a winter, and it's a sensible choice for a potable water line where you don't want anything leaching into your drinking supply. The fitting bodies are molded black plastic, so there's nothing here to corrode or seize the way a brass fitting eventually will down in a damp locker. Wipe the O-ring, seat the fitting, and the quad port does the rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quad ports are designed to fit directly onto the pump, which is what makes the quick-connect trick work. You line the fitting up with the pump's port, push it home, and the locking tabs hold it against the O-ring seal. When it's time to drain the lines or blow them out for winter, you release the fitting and the hose comes free in seconds instead of minutes. Anyone who's tried to winterize a rig on a cold afternoon knows how much that speed is worth when your hands are already numb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinterizing is where these earn their keep. Pop the quick-connect fittings, drain the fresh water tank and the lines, then either run antifreeze through the system or blow the lines out with low-pressure air. Because the ports release by hand, you're not wrestling hose clamps in the cold, and you're far less likely to crack a fitting or nick a line with a screwdriver. Come spring, reconnecting is just as fast, which gets you back on the water sooner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1\/2 inch hose barb size matches the flexible tubing used on a lot of RV and marine freshwater systems, so your existing hose usually slides right on. Secure each barbed connection with a stainless hose clamp and you've got a joint that still comes apart at the quad port when you need it to. The two male pipe thread fittings handle the spots where you're threading into a valve or a manifold.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a fresh water kit, so keep it on the potable and washdown side, not on fuel, waste, or raw water lines. It's a set of four adapters, not a pump, so confirm your existing pump uses the quad port pattern before you order. If it does, you've got a spare straight barb, an elbow for that awkward corner, and a pair of threaded adapters for the parts bin. Keep the O-rings clean and seated properly and the fittings release smoothly every time. For a lot of owners, that's a season of plumbing headaches solved for about the price of lunch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"nvn-features\"\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuick-connect quad ports snap onto the pump by hand for tool-free hose removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEPDM O-ring seal on every fitting, suited to fresh and potable water\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch straight hose barb for direct flexible-tubing runs\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e90-degree elbow hose barb clears tight corners without kinking the line\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo 1\/2 inch male pipe thread adapters for rigid plumbing and threaded manifolds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack molded plastic bodies won't corrode in a damp locker or bay\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSet of four fittings covers the most common freshwater pump connections\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpeeds up winterizing and spring recommissioning on RV and marine systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-trust\"\u003e\n  \u003ch2\u003eWhy Buy from NVN Marine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eAuthorized Xylem reseller, full manufacturer warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNMEA member and ABYC certified, advice from real boat techs\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eSame-day shipping before 3 PM ET on in-stock items\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eNY headquarters and Fort Lauderdale flagship retail store\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"nvn-faq\"\u003e\n  \u003cdetails\u003e\n    \u003csummary\u003eWhat's included in this kit?\u003c\/summary\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003eFour fittings.
