The actual rebuild seal is only the size of a quarter. Getting the valve apart & back together without destroying it is another thing. Here is the best info. around on rebuilding them yourself.. http://www.pbase.com/dennygraham/ranco_hf_brOr you could send it out & have it professionally rebuilt.. http://www.heatercontrolvalve.com/
