Product details

The Pentair 273109 is the o-ring kit for the ABS backwash slide valve. It is the genuine Pentair seal set, supplied as a kit so the valve can be put back together on all new rubber.

What goes wrong

A slide valve seals against o-rings that ride on the plunger shaft. As the rubber flattens and hardens, two things happen: water starts bypassing internally so the filter dribbles to waste even in the filter position, and the handle gets stiff and awkward to push and pull. Both point at the seals rather than the valve body.

What you are buying

This is the seal kit, not a complete valve. It suits the ABS bodied backwash slide valve; multiport valves take a spider gasket and a different set of parts. Rebuilding on fresh o-rings costs a fraction of a new valve and takes an afternoon.

Questions and answers

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

What valve is this kit for?
The Pentair ABS backwash slide valve, the push pull style valve. Pentair part number 273109.
Is this a complete rebuild kit?
It is the o-ring kit, so it covers the seals in the valve. Hard parts such as the body and handle are not included.
Why is water going to waste when the valve is in filter?
That is the classic worn slide valve seal. Water bypasses the plunger internally, and a fresh set of o-rings is the fix.
Will it fit a multiport valve?
No. This kit is listed for the ABS backwash slide valve. Multiport valves use a spider gasket and a different set of seals.
