AquaStar 6-Inch Hockey Puck Sumpless Suction Outlet Cover, Tan | 6HPHA108

One tan 6-inch cover, the VGBA compliance button and four 8-32 × 1.25-inch flat-head Phillips screws made from 316 stainless steel. A bulkhead adapter is a separate purchase. The catalog’s 25-per-case quantity is a case-pack reference, not the quantity included with one cover.

AquaStar identifies this as the HydroAir/ITT replacement family for compatible concrete applications. Its 2026 catalog also lists fiberglass and steel applications when used with 6HA25T20Sxxx. Its official cut-sheet lists separately sold 620T15Sxxx, 620SIxxx, RNDxxx, 615SIxxx, 6HA25T20Sxxx, 615Txxx, 6E15Txxx and 4HPAPKxxx adapter configurations. The adapter must match the actual fitting and certified installation. The 615T adapter fits 1022 female adapters; the extended 6E15T is for flush-mount 1½-inch FPT fittings and does not fit 1022 female adapters. Verify the exact connection in the manufacturer documents before ordering.

The official cut-sheet identifies the 6HPHA family as replacing 6HPxxx and 4HPxxx. A 4HP replacement requires a suitable 4HPAPKxxx bulkhead adapter or replacement of the 4-inch bulkhead with a compatible 6-inch bulkhead. This is conditional compatibility, not an unconditional drop-in replacement.

There is no single flow rating that applies to every 6HPHA installation. Use the exact SOFA configuration and system conditions in AquaStar FlowCode. Do not substitute the cover’s open area for a certified flow rating. A qualified pool professional must evaluate the complete installation.

The current catalog identifies the 6HPHA family as certified, listed and labeled to ANSI/APSP/ICC-16 2017 and NSF/ANSI/CAN 50. Compliance depends on the correct certified assembly, manufacturing generation and installation. Match the actual product markings and manufacturer documents; older production uses different supporting documents.

AquaStar’s IN028-042423 instructions require replacement of the cover assembly and fasteners within five years of installation, with earlier replacement for damage, brittleness or significant color change. Service life begins when installed, with or without water. Missing, broken or cracked components must be replaced before bathers use the pool; loose components must be secured before use.

The instructions identify this as a blockable suction outlet. New pools and spas require a multiple-SOFA system. Existing single-outlet installations require an additional qualifying anti-entrapment device or system specified by AquaStar. The cover by itself does not make an unsuitable suction system compliant. Use the installation manual and a qualified pool professional.

AquaStar’s 2026 catalog states a general one-year limited warranty from original installation for defects in materials and workmanship, subject to the complete terms and exclusions. Color fading, improper installation, poor water chemistry and other listed causes are excluded; non-approved components may void coverage. Repair or replacement is at AquaStar’s option. Read the manufacturer’s catalog limited warranty, printed page 238. A drain cover’s required replacement interval is a separate matter.

Yes, in the manufacturer’s specified configuration. The 2026 catalog, printed page 133, pairs 6HPHA covers with the separately sold 6HA25T20S bulkhead adapter for fiberglass and steel-wall applications. The cover and adapter have separate part numbers and are not a single included kit. A qualified pool professional must verify the complete certified suction outlet arrangement.

AquaStar’s 2026 catalog, printed page 232, lists ProStar SCW001 for the 6HPHA family: four 8-32 × 1.25-inch flat-head Phillips screws. Use manufacturer-approved fasteners and follow the cover instructions; an arbitrary same-size screw is not a substitute for approved hardware.
