Genuine Part - Polaris replacement Back Up Valve This is the OEM backup valve. It's a few dollars more than the knock-offs, but trust me, save yourself the heartache of those other brands failing or not working properly at all. I've made the mistake of trying to save $ on this item and it has NEVER paid off. This valve works great!

Don’t go cheap, buy the original Zodiac! I just replaced a cheaper off brand valve with the Zodiac. It does not pull as hard as the off brand. THIS IS A GOOD THING! The off brand valve pulled so hard that it would tangle the tubing. I am watching the Zodiac valve perform right now and it gently pulls the Polaris back and does not tangle. It is working perfectly! I’ve only had this valve for about a week and I’m hoping It will last a long time.

Failed in Three Months BUT Received Replacement Simple review — it failed in three months, maybe sooner. The Polaris has not been running right for at least a month, but I tested it today, three months after installation.Update: I called the supplier on Friday and received excellent service from a polite assistant. She walked me through the routine procedure and, subsequently, mailed a replacement on Monday. I received it the next day, installed it, and it works perfectly.

Exactly what I needed The installation was simple and I am not good at this stuff. The pool "service" would have charged me five times the cost of ordering and installing it myself . It took less than a few minutes - very happy. Also it fixed the problem .
