Hi-

I’m thinking of getting a 3rd function valve for my BX1860. I’ve been doing some reading on self-installing and seems pretty straightforward overall. Has anyone done this on the 60 series BX? Any pitfalls to watch out for? Is the electric component difficult to install?

Thanks for any help!

While I haven't put one in an 1860, I have done the 2360. (and bx25)
Nothing to be afraid of. you will remove 1 steel pipe and connect a hose to each side. The electrical is easier.
