The body is rigid PVC and lasts, but the seals on the piston take the wear, and over time they let water past even with the handle fully down. That is what an owner notices first: a valve that is closed but still passing water to the drain or to the return.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRebuild rather than replace\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause the assembly comes out of the top of the body, the valve does not have to come out of the plumbing. That turns a cut and glue job into a parts swap. While the internals are out, look down the bore for scoring, since a damaged bore will wear a new piston assembly quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConfirm the fit\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eP-style slide valve bodies are made in more than one size.
