    Posted: 25 Jul 2019 at 7:46am
I ordered a new Thermostat from Steiner, bought the one listed as compatible with the WD45:


The t-stat that was in the water manifold housing was completely gutted, but it was the t-stat only with a 2.5" flange, not the smaller one that Steiner sells with the separate little cup and gasket.

So, now I'm confused about how I get this new one in there.  It's not immediately evident how the cup and thermostat mate together in the water manifold in a way to keep the thermostat in place.  I don't think I'm missing any pieces, but every arrangement I tried basically left the thermostat floating around loose in one side or the other.  What am I missing?

Yes, the housing has a bypass hose on the front.
