Best of luck. I switched early.

I know they're not. They're the same ones you were using. I just added regular unions after them rather than replacing the whole thing like you did. They work fine in this configuration. I ran a water test for several weeks and was able to service both the OM and pump as needed. With the new unions in there, I don't take the union valves apart at all, so the ball in the junky union valves we were both using stays seated properly and doesn't leak. The valves themselves seem to be fairly decent quality IMHO, they were just never meant to be taken apart with water pressure against the valve.
