## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this item 1500w or 5500w? both are listed. i'd like to confirm before i purchse. thanks!**
A: It is 1500 Watt 120 volt screw in element. If you have any questions please contact us at 800.334.2004.

**Q: Can this be slightly bent?**
A: No, bending it can compromise the integrity of the element and damage the internal insulation that surrounds the wiring, causing a short in the element.  Any modification of the original product, including bending it, will automatically void the warranty of the item.

**Q: Does it come with the O-ring? Is the base stainless also?**
A: Yes, it comes with the O-ring. The base is plated steel I believe, but corrosion problems at the base hardly tend to ever be an issue. As always, a bit of teflon tape on the thread (for lubricity, not sealing) is good to have down the road.

**Q: Does this fit sw6de?**
A: 02143 1500w Element is the replacement for a Suburban SW6DE
