Do you use teflon sealing tape on the joints, or just screw them in?

I screwed in with no teflon and it was fine. I did have an issue with the O-ring being too small and had to get a larger one

They do not use a screw.The replacement that I recommend is teflon. Plastic will squeal on a number of surfaces...

A plastic welding epoxy putty would work better if it is a crack in the plastic.You would want to roughen up and then clean the area first before you seal it over.

I wrap the tree then tuck the end under a wrap and pull it tight. I tried tape the first year and adhesive wore out after a month or two.

For the Screw-in style nipple I used a regular paint type bucket (never used) and an 11/32 inch bit worked perfectly. I did use Teflon tape also as a precaution. If you use PVC you need a 5/16 inch bit and again use Teflon tape for a good seal. Silicone sealant has been used by some people if the tape doesn't give a full seal. Hope this helps.

none, you attach it to the screws already there. If there are no screws or existing brackets you need to install the new brackets using an eigth inch drill bit and re-caulk very well.

I own a RV repair shop. It is not necessary to align the screw holes w/ the new hatch.In fact it may be better if they don't. Use #8 × 1 to 1.25 in. Hex. Screws, 3/4×3/16 butyl tape to seal and plastecoat or dicor on screw heads & flange.Any other ??? Contact me @ 541 508 8484

I spliced the wires that come out of the pot to wires that come out of my stereo.I used silicone rescue tape http://www.rescuetape.com/ to keep the joint water tight.

I used 3m double sided tape. You can also use a small screw as there is a mounting hole on the back of the unit.

Use PVC blue like you use for white PVC pipe. Don't put glue on the inside of the joint because it will block the internal valve.

They are easy to put on. However, to be sure of a good seal, I used thin nosed Vice Grips to get them good and tight and sprayed the connection with soapy water to be sure they did not leak.

I used all plastic PVC fittings to the pump proper. Had no problem getting a good seal using just Teflon tape on the plastic threads

I just use nylog sealant as a lubricant that is designed for the refrigerant Im using which is almost exclusively R410a. You can get that here on http://amazon.com. Some may disagree with using it but I always put some nylog on the face and back of the flare and the threads when I mate up the joint anyway. The nylog on the back of the flare helps reduce friction when tightening the flare nut. I haven't had any issues with the 14 mini splits I installed this summer/fall using this method.

You need to improvise basically. I like to just use some duct tape because its easy and sure to be air-tight if done right. More professional stuff will have rubber stoppers that fit into a sized hole, this stuff is cheap, but still works well.

I screwed them directly into a plastic bucket. Didn't use pipe tape, if it leaks might use a drop of clear sealant (some types are rated for repair of dishes & china). They do get dirty in AZ from calcium buildup & dirt so after 6-9 mos, I pull them out and replace them.

The tape has a backing which protects the glue. You peel off the backing before you install. Works great!

If you haven't heard of Weldbond, I highly recommend it for applications like this. It's easier to use than epoxy and I call it the "stick anything to anything glue". If you slide the magnets apart as opposed to simply trying to pull one off, they will release MUCH more easily, or use a notecard and slide it between them. Since the magnets are small, a notecard is probably your best option.
