## Description

Pentair 261050 2-Inch HiFlow Valve with Plumbing Replacement Pool/Spa D.E. and Sand Filter

Review: Great upgrade - Fit perfectly into my sand filter. Panic'ed originally because the filter said on it DE only...but once I investigated more, realized that it was designed for the sand due to the output location side. Item works perfectly as expected.
Review: Satisfied customer - This replacement product worked without any problems and resolved a vacuum leak. Would purchase again.

## Features

- Installation Instructions: Ensure the multiport valve is compatible with your pool filter
- Turn Off the Pump & Drain the System - Before starting, ensure the pool pump is off and drain any water from the filter system to prevent leaks.
- Remove the Old Valve - Disconnect the plumbing lines and unscrew the unions attaching the old valve to the filter.
- Install the New Valve - Secure the new valve onto the filter, reconnect the plumbing, and ensure all connections are tight.
- Test the System - Turn the pump back on, check for leaks, and ensure the valve is functioning correctly.

This replacement product worked without any problems and resolved a vacuum leak. Would purchase again.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent value - periodic replacement suggested!
*by S***9 on June 15, 2020*

After about 5 years (with a QUAD DE 60), the old mulitiport value became hard to operate - I should have quickly realized that it was time for a new one. A degraded multiport valve's noise level starts going up, and it will eventually start leaking water (mine did from the top, and its gasket was degraded). A well operating multiport valve apparently makes the water flow more steamlined. Replacement was easy - even for someone who had not done this kind of work or any plumbing work previously. A hack saw and 2" PVC pipes/elbow joints/couplers/primer/glue is all you need, and some some sense of where to cut and create new joints. At around $150 here, and about an hour of work, is a significant cost saving compared to professional installation and purchase from a local pool store. It's probably better to replace the whole valve than to replace the gasket alone (even if that can be done with any precision).
