Frequently Asked Questions
If the regulator is leaking, the sealing surfaces are damaged, or the housing is cracked or warped, replacement of the lower housing is recommended.
It depends on condition—while the housing can be replaced independently, it’s good practice to inspect and replace seals and diaphragms concurrently for optimal performance.
Compatibility depends on the specific regulator series. Always refer to your parts diagram or service manual to ensure that the 15C303 housing is listed for your regulator model.
