I have leakage where valve meets valve body. I inspected the O ring and it looked fine. I went to the local pool store and picked up a new O ring anyway; however, when installed I still have leaking. I finally got aggressive and really tightened the screws down to no success. Do you think replacing the entire top assembly value will solve the leaking?
Reply
Hi JB, Yes I do believe that by replacing the entire valve assembly that this would stop the leaking unless the leaking is coming from a crack in the filter tank.

Will this part fit my valve part #272523?

The 272531 is the correct Top Valve Assembly for your 272523 Pentair/Pac-Fab Top Mount Valve.

Over the winter, a chipmunk crawled all of the way up my waste line and got stuck in the multiport valve assembly. It tried to chew its way out, damaging the spider gasket and hard plastic. Therefore, I was losing water when the pump was running. I was able to find the top piece on the website and replaced it without any problems. THAT is why you remove and inspect your valve every spring. You never know what can be going on inside.

(5 out of 5 stars) Solved My Leak Problem
Reviewed By: Charlie from Richmond VA ()
Pros: Easy to install.
Cons: not cheap.
Replacing the valve top assembly completely solved my leakage to waste port problem. Installing a new one takes only a few minutes and common tools. If I had known more about pools I would have changed to valve top assembly several summers ago.

(5 out of 5 stars) Works well for Pentair Tagelus 60D sand filter multiport
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
I used this to replace a leaking Tagelus Sand filter TA 60D. It worked like a charm. Very happy with this and the customer service at inyopools. My local pool company wanted to replace my whole sand filter for $1000 total installed and this part saved me hundreds!

(5 out of 5 stars) Great valve replacement for Pentair sand filter.
Reviewed By: Inyo Customer ()
The replacement had the correct Pentair sticker and was a breeze to install. The spring tension was a bit lighter, but operates perfectly. Actually, I prefer the replacement over the OEM. It came with the required O ring and spider gasket.

(4 out of 5 stars) manufacturing changes to valve housing
Reviewed By: Old pool owner from Ontario , Canada ()
Pros: finally working
Cons: new parts way different from old
I thought the new top assembly would just drop into the old bottom assembly...I was wrong... the old one was 18 yrs old...the new one had updates that resulted in having to reuse the old top assembly housing and reinstall the valve into it ... a bit of a challenge but it was successfully reassembled ...should have just ordered the diverter and associated parts
