Review on Viega 50243 2 Inch PureFlow Manabloc by Pogo Shakey

Pros: All outputs are 1/2. In theory, you can get 15 gallons per minute at any outlet. Most plumbers work with 1/2. Made of poly. Cons: The connectors are not brass. Contains a 5-page so-called manual. The Viega manual is a double-edged sword as it is intended for Viega products. Good to read. This manual is 90 pages long but seems to contain a lot of information about their products, no "standard". Easy to install and oddly enough the 24 ports fit right in our house. Spit hot and cold perfectly. Instead of 12 hot/12 cold. I ran a pipe to each bracket without breaking once, they nailed it. It can be argued that "plastic" similar brass mana blocks seem to have lower ratings. I'm also pretty sure I got a used model from NYDirect, my manblock was wet inside. For those who have purchased, make sure you rip open the caps and feel the inside to make sure the product is dry. Now I have to check for leaks and file a complaint if necessary.
