Frequently Asked Questions

What part number is this pool valve?

This item is supplied under part number SP071620T. Match that number against your equipment's parts diagram before ordering.

How do I work out the right valve size?

Measure the outside diameter of the pipe rather than guessing from the fitting, and confirm whether you need a 2-way or 3-way body. A 2 inch valve normally accepts 2 inch pipe inside the socket or 1.5 inch outside.

Can I replace just the valve internals?

Many diverter valves allow the cover, diverter and o-rings to be replaced without cutting the body out of the plumbing, which is a far quicker repair than replacing the whole valve.

Why is my valve leaking?

Leaks usually come from a dried or pinched o-ring under the cover, or a cracked body from freeze damage. Lubricate o-rings with silicone, never petroleum-based products.

How do I confirm this part fits my equipment?

Check the part number stamped on the component you are replacing, or find it on the parts schematic in your owner's manual. If the number differs or is unreadable, send us your equipment model and serial number and we will verify fitment before you order.

How quickly does this ship?

In-stock items ship from our US warehouse on business days. You will receive tracking by email once the order leaves the warehouse.

Can I return it if I ordered the wrong part?

Unopened, uninstalled items can be returned within 30 days. Equipment that has been installed or plumbed cannot be returned, so confirm fitment before installation.

Is this covered by a warranty?

Manufacturer warranty terms vary by brand and product. Warranty claims generally require proof of purchase and, on installed equipment, evidence of professional installation.
