Top Feed Water Valve Impeller- Pentair In-Floor(A&A)
Old SKU – 518045
A&A Manufacturing is now Pentair In-Floor Cleaning & Circulation!
This part was designed to sit atop the gear kit and its purpose is to connect to and rotate the smaller gears as water is fed into the valve. As these gears rotate so will the gear module which carries a cam underneath which will either pick up the older style acrylic balls (which are now discontinued) or the newer style t-valves. There are teeth on the bottom of this impeller that will wear down over time and continued use. Water chemistry also plays a huge role in the breakdown of plastic parts so it is always recommended to keep an eye on it to extend the life of these parts.
Note: This impeller will only work for top feed valves. It will not work on low-profile (side-fed) water valves.
