Product details

The Hayward SPX0704BA is the key cover gasket and handle assembly for the SP0704 1-1/2 in. Vari-Flo 4 position valve. It is the genuine Hayward kit, supplied with both parts together.

What the key gasket does

The diverter, the key, is what routes water to filter, backwash, waste or closed. The gasket on top of it is what keeps those paths separate. Once it hardens, flattens or tears, water crosses between ports: the filter never quite filters, backwash never quite backwashes, and the handle usually gets stiff or vague at the same time.

Check the valve before ordering

Hayward has built several valves that look alike from above. The one this kit fits has SP704-C molded into the bottom of the diverter. Lift the cover and read that marking rather than going by the shape of the handle.

What is not in the kit

The lid o-ring is a separate part. If the valve has been apart and the o-ring is flat, cracked or squashed out of round, replace it while the valve is open rather than a season later.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What comes in the kit?
The key cover gasket and the handle assembly.
Is the lid o-ring included?
No. The key gasket is in the kit, but the lid o-ring is a separate Hayward part. It is worth replacing both at once if the o-ring is flattened or cracked.
How do I confirm this is the right valve?
Look at the underside of the diverter. SP704-C is molded into it on the valve this kit fits, the 1-1/2 in. Vari-Flo 4 position SP0704.
Why would the key gasket need replacing?
It seals the diverter against the valve body. When it hardens or tears, water crosses between ports, so the valve no longer isolates backwash from filter and the handle can become stiff or vague.
