This valve connects directly to the side ports of compatible D.E. or sand filters using 2-inch plumbing connections with a 7.81-inch centerline. The push-pull design allows operators to switch between filter and backwash modes with minimal flow restriction, simplifying filter maintenance and operation. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"557\" data-end=\"597\"\u003e────────────────────────────────────────\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"599\" data-end=\"611\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"613\" data-end=\"1407\"\u003e• Replacement 2-inch push-pull backwash valve designed for Pentair and Sta-Rite D.E. and sand filter systems. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"760\" data-end=\"763\"\u003e• Two-position operation allows quick switching between filtration and backwash modes. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"887\" data-end=\"890\"\u003e• 7.81-inch centerline spacing allows direct connection to compatible filter side ports. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1016\" data-end=\"1019\"\u003e• Push-pull handle design provides easy manual operation and locks securely in the filter position. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1156\" data-end=\"1159\"\u003e• High-flow design minimizes restriction to maintain efficient water circulation. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1278\" data-end=\"1281\"\u003e• Durable PVC body construction withstands pool chemicals and long-term equipment use. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1409\" data-end=\"1449\"\u003e────────────────────────────────────────\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1451\" data-end=\"1467\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Overview\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1469\" data-end=\"1890\"\u003eThe Pentair 263053 push-pull valve is used to control backwashing in pool and spa filtration systems. Installed between the pump and filter plumbing, the valve allows operators to easily switch the water flow direction to clean the filter media. By pulling or pushing the handle, the valve redirects water to perform a backwash cycle or return the system to normal filtration mode. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1892\" data-end=\"2376\"\u003eUnlike multiport valves, push-pull valves provide a simple two-position design that reduces internal flow restrictions while maintaining efficient circulation. The valve connects directly to compatible filter side ports using 2-inch plumbing unions and is commonly used on Pentair and Sta-Rite sand or D.E. filters. Its durable construction and straightforward operation make it a reliable solution for routine filter maintenance and backwashing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48994967683384,"sku":"263053","price":159.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0808\/6319\/9544\/files\/PEN263053_0.jpg?v=1777917225","url":"https:\/\/appaetechpoolsupply.com\/products\/pentair781centerpushpullvalve263053","provider":"AppaeTech Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
