Zodiac 8034 Neverlube 2-in-1 Backwash Valve Pool Filter

Product Description

The ZODIAC 8034 is a NeverLube 2-in-1 backwash valve designed for pool filtration systems. It uses a straight-through, full-flow port design to maintain flow rate and hydraulic efficiency through the backwash cycle. The Versa-Coupler mounting system accommodates inlet and outlet port distances from 7 inches up to 9 inches, making it compatible with a wide range of filter housings. NeverLube technology eliminates the need for lubrication or diverter seal service over the life of the valve. Licensed pool service technicians and plumbers install this valve as part of routine filter system setup or replacement.

The ZODIAC 8034 is suited for residential and light commercial pool filter systems. It connects directly to Jandy Pro Series DEV diatomaceous earth filters and JS sand filters. The Versa-Coupler design also allows fitment on most other filter brands where the inlet and outlet port spacing falls within the 7 to 9 inch range. This makes it a practical single-SKU option when servicing mixed equipment environments or performing filter replacements where the original valve brand is being swapped out.
