Nothing was attached to that threaded end? Looks pretty clearly like it is meant for a hose to attach to let water go in or out, but if there was no hose, then?

The only other idea there comes to mind is maybe for air flow, but I wouldn’t expect that kind of fitting for that.

I would just take the piece and the photos to Ace or HD or Lowe’s and look for one of the crusty old guys who knows what he’s talking about.

Hello Guys,
Need small advice,
I had my LWD on 27th june ,before a week of that i had HSbC last round in which I clearly told I wanted to join by 4th july as my next joining is due at that time.
HR agreed and told will fast track your bgv .
Now the problem is they released offer for 11thJuly saying will preponed in case bgv finished early.
Today I again got a mail for 18th july extension.

Am quite worried here now, as I already said no to other companies !should I try looking again.
