Helps the polaris "back that thang up" When my old back up valve had bit the dust, I ordered this replacement. Installation takes maybe 5 minutes and now the Polaris is as good as new. No complaints whatsoever and in another 4 or 5 years after this one has served it's purpose I'll be coming back for another one.

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 ta... read more

Perfect fix This was the perfect fix for our polaris cleaner and was very easy to replace with a few small tools and ten minutes. This was much cheaper than in the pool stores.

Money saving replacement I was quoted an exhorbitant fee by my pool service to replace the back up valve that failed. The Zodiac fit perfectly and works perfectly.

Saved my Polaris! Not only was my Polaris 380 not backing up properly it was running very sluggish. Before buying a new cleaner I tried this and it runs like new. The first one I received was defective and Amazon immediately sent out a new one and I had 30 days to return the defective one...free shipping. Great product for a great price.

Pricey Of course it's pricy... It's a pool product... and it connects to a Polaris product...and you have to use it...but it works..
