Pentair 982873 Pool Diverter Valve

Product Description

The PENTAIR 982873 is a polypropylene diverter valve designed for use in pool and spa plumbing systems. Diverter valves redirect water flow between two or more plumbing lines, making them essential for managing water circulation between pools, spas, and auxiliary equipment. This valve is a packaged unit, supplied ready for installation. Pool and spa service technicians rely on diverter valves to control flow paths during equipment service and routine system operation.

This diverter valve is suited for residential and light commercial pool and spa plumbing applications. It is commonly installed at equipment pads where flow must be directed between a pool and spa, or between primary and secondary circulation lines. The polypropylene construction provides resistance to chlorinated water and common pool chemicals.
