Full Back-up Valve Works Great I was having so much trouble with my Polaris pool vac. What amazed me in the end is that I had so-called experienced pool people looking at it working--my pool maintanence man said it was working fine, when it was tilting and floating and going sideways and skipping parts of the pool. I took it to a Polaris rep at the pool store, and he worked it over, charged me for parts, and the thing still wasn't working. None of the people to whom I spoke mentioned the back up valve. I got to reading on my... read more

Fixed the cleaner! My cleaner had not been working well; it turned out that the old reversing valve did not shut off totally when it was not reversing, so some of the water that would have been sent to the Polaris never got there. Replacing this fixed it, and a followup replacement of the feed hose made my 10+ year old Polaris work like new again. I'm a happy camper, and it was this valve that got everything good again.

Expensive but much cheaper than at store After 10 or so years my back up valve casing broke. I went to Leslie's and bought a new one for $90 because I wanted to replace it before leaving on vacation. However, after getting home I thought I should wait and check online. I found this, the exact same product, for $50 with free shipping. So I ordered it, turned off the polaris while we were on vacation, replaced it when we got back, and then returned the original. Hard to pass up savings like this. It's kind of ironic. It would ... read more

Fantastic product and thanks to Amazon Reviewers Thank you all.My Polaris cleaner stopped moving, and the tail didn't wiggle. It is five years old and I thought it has reached planned obsolescence. Then I read the reviews and wanted to give a replacement valve a chance.Guess what, it works! My Polaris, its tail wagging is running all over the pool.My only observation is, it took more than an hour to get the old valve off and put the new one on.The nuts were so tight, it was unbelievable, putting it back, was equally a task.P... read more

Needed this and it sure did deliver! I purchased a home with a pool and had never owned a polaris sweeper before. So when it started to malfunction, I was a little unsure as to how to go about repairing it. I did a little online research and found out that the problem was likely related to this back-up valve. I searched Amazon and immediately came to the item I was looking for. The price was great, compared to other sites on the internet, so I jumped on the deal. The valve arrived quickly, with instructions, in the original ... read more
