After discussing with Eric at OJ, I understand Skier's Choice has since changed to a "cool water source". Apparently, using a hot water supply can cause the plastic housing to expand to a point in which the seal spins freely within the housing, causing leaks. Upon inspection of the seal and seal housing in my boat following a recent failure, it's obvious that this is what happened. I'd like to re-route the water supply - just want to make sure to tap in to the best place.
Thanks for any help.
