Autotrol 1002449 Drain Fitting Elbow 3/4"

Upgrade Your Water Softener with the Autotrol 1002449 Drain Fitting Elbow (3/4")

Ensure a secure, hassle-free connection for your water treatment system with the Autotrol 1002449 Drain Fitting Elbow. This genuine OEM replacement part is specifically engineered for Autotrol control valves, offering a perfect fit and professional-grade reliability.

The standout feature of the 1002449 is its integrated free-spinning union nut. This design allows you to tighten the fitting securely to the valve body without twisting or kinking your drain hose, ensuring a straight, unobstructed flow path for wastewater.

Key Features & Benefits

• Swivel Union Connection: The free-spinning nut allows for independent rotation, meaning you can tighten the connection while the barbed end and hose remain perfectly stationary.

• Kink-Free Installation: Prevents the common headache of "hose coil," where the drain line twists and binds during installation, which can lead to drainage backups.

• Precision Engineering: Designed specifically for Autotrol series control valves (including the 255 and 268 models) for a snap-in, leak-proof fit.

• Durable Construction: Molded from high-impact, corrosion-resistant materials built to withstand the high-pressure brine flow during regeneration cycles.

• Standard 3/4" Sizing: Features a 3/4-inch barb connection, compatible with standard residential drain line tubing.

Why Choose Genuine Autotrol Parts?

Don't settle for generic fittings that force you to spin the entire hose just to get a tight seal. The Autotrol 1002449 provides a mechanical advantage that makes maintenance easy. Whether you're a DIYer or a plumbing pro, the swivel-nut design ensures that your drain line remains kink-free and your system operates at peak efficiency.

Installation Tip

The free-spinning nut is designed to compress against an internal O-ring. Do not use Teflon tape on the threads; simply ensure the O-ring is seated correctly and hand-tighten the nut. A final 1/4 turn with a wrench is all that's needed for a permanent, leak-free seal.
