FibroPool Swimming Pool Diverter Valve – 2 Inch 3-Way Posi-Close Slip Valve, Lubeless PTFE Seats, CPVC Construction, Ideal for Pools, Spas, Heaters, Chemical Dispensers, and Salt Generators

I used this in a house drain project for diverting greywater. It bonded to abs drain pipes great.Careful not to bond the inside sliding parts, and follow instructions. Remove the guts before bonding. Then reinstall them after cure to make sure.

UPDATE: I changed the 3 star rating to 5. Seems the previously reported drip was temporary. Will update as needed.ORIGINAL REVIEW: I'd managed quite well without a waste valve on our pool pump for 15 years, ever through two storms. But this spring it'd gotten the better of me when I couldn't clear the water and decided to use drop out for the first time. Having read it's best to vacuum resulting sediment to waste, I bought and installed this valve.Installation was rather straightforward, one only needing to pay attention to direction of water flow. As per the instruction sheet, you have to snip off a small tab on the underside of the lever so that you can rotate the lever 180 degrees upward (as shown in the first photo). If you don't the third port remains open (lever in the down position) sucking air into your system. Rotate the lever to the right (second picture) to block the filters and flush the waste. (I attach a removable 2ft piece of pvc on the down port to better direct the wastewater).Only complaint so far is that in the lever up position, a small amount of water drips from the port below (one drop per 12.5 seconds). Otherwise, it serves the purpose. Will update as needed.

Great quality product. Sturdy and easy to install.

Excellent product.

Received the valve late April 2022. It was installed within a month of purchase as all pool piping was replaced. Has been working perfectly fine until a few days ago where there were cracks. I did purchase a second valve not from the same seller. My review will be updated again. This could just be a defective valve. Stay tuned for update.

Pros:Easy to install and the operation is nice and smooth. These are a lower price than some of the more recognized brands that feel very similar. Overall, I think they're very good value for money. They do also offer the flexibility to set flow through any of the valve ports to suit your application.Cons:Out of the box, only the left or right port can be closed off. A piece of plastic integrated into the valve body prevents full motion of the valve, so if you want to be able to have a flow pattern different than the default, that travel stop has to be broken off. It works fine, it's just a bit hack and you lose the ability to prevent all 3 ports from being open simultaneously. It would be nice if there were a more elegant way of adjusting the min/max position of the valve handle without having all or nothing.

There are my favorite valves for pool plumbing have used them for over 20 years

Worked as expected, easy install, proper function.
