I recently purchased a glycerin filter-pressure gauge from TFKits.net. I notice what I perceive as a larger-than-usual air bubble (see 1st photo), rendering it a bit difficult to read. Does anyone else think so, or am I just overinterpreting a typical size?
Secondly, the gauge screws on well enough, but before it seats completely, it runs into the gauge housing of my Hayward Perflex DE filter. [see 2nd photo] (The one it replaced had a fairly smaller face.) I put some extra teflon tape and screwed the gauge as far as it could go, enough to apparently stem any obvious leaking, but was just wondering if this wasn’t baiting trouble.
