Match the valve orientation to the tank’s plumbing (see mark alignments on valve body). Use only PVC solvent rated for pool use in clean, dry sockets.

Ensure the handle motion is smooth and sealed before use.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40894398627925,"sku":"SP0410X602S","price":117.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/0837\/0005\/files\/SP0410X602S-3.jpg?v=1761325455","url":"https:\/\/www.epoolsupply.com\/products\/2-skt-slide-valve-for-pro-series-sand-filter","provider":"ePoolSupply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
