Aquastar Pool Products avc15c Check Valve 1.5in Socket 2in Spigot

Product Description

The AQUASTAR POOL PRODUCTS avc15c is a 2-way check valve engineered for backflow prevention in pool plumbing systems. Constructed from CPVC, it resists corrosion and handles the chemical exposure common in residential and professional pool environments. The valve features a stainless steel swing mechanism that delivers minimal hydraulic loss during normal flow. A clear lid allows for quick visual inspection, and the valve disassembles without special tools for debris clearing. The 1.5-inch socket by 2-inch spigot configuration integrates directly into standard pool plumbing lines. Licensed pool service professionals and plumbers install this valve as part of circulation and filtration system maintenance.

The avc15c is suited for residential and professional pool installations where reliable backflow prevention is required. Its CPVC construction holds up to the chemical and UV exposure found in outdoor pool equipment environments. The socket by spigot end configuration is a common format in pool plumbing, making it a practical fit for new installations and replacement projects on circulation lines, filter returns, and similar pool system plumbing runs.
