Installation Notes
Shut off the pool pump and relieve system pressure. Remove the valve handle and cover to access the shaft/stem area. Extract the old O-ring and backup ring, clean the groove and shaft thoroughly, then install the new rings with light lubricant compatible with pool systems. Reassemble the valve cover and retest for leaks and proper lever-action movement.
Maintenance Tip
Inspect this seal kit during annual valve service or when you observe leaks, reduced flow, or difficulty shifting valve positions. Replacing the rings proactively can prevent costly valve housing damage or water loss from your filtration system.
