Key Features & Performance

Maintenance-Free Never Lube Design: The internal diverter seal mechanism is completely maintenance-free, eliminating the need for periodic lubrication that traditional diverter valves require.

Durable CPVC Construction: Built from CPVC material designed to withstand extreme chemical and temperature fluctuations without leaking, cracking, or breaking.

Positive Seal Technology: Features a positive seal diverter assembly that helps ensure a tight, reliable shut-off at each port position.

Dual Pipe-Size Versatility: A single valve body accommodates both 2" and 2-1/2" pipe runs, simplifying plumbing layouts and reducing the number of unique parts needed on a job.

Automation Ready: Designed for use with the Jandy Valve Actuator, allowing this manually-operated diverter valve to be upgraded to automatic operation as part of a Jandy automation system.

Installation & Compatibility

Remove Internal Assembly Before Gluing: The internal valve assembly must be removed prior to gluing the valve body to pipe fittings, and care should be taken so no glue enters the valve body beyond the ports.
Use the Recommended Cement: Weld-On 724 CPVC Gray solvent cement is recommended for solvent-welding this valve into CPVC piping.
Confirm Inlet Orientation: When positioning the valve cover, be sure the word "INLET" is oriented over the incoming flow port before final assembly.
Operate the Lock Knob Properly: Loosen the lock knob to turn the handle, and turn the knob down finger-tight to secure the handle once the desired port position is set.
Professional Installation Required: This valve must be installed and serviced by a contractor licensed and qualified in pool equipment installation in jurisdictions where such requirements exist.
