Quick overview
- Genuine Pentair part Factory diverter 270200Z for the FullFloXF backwash valve.
- Inlet side This is the inlet diverter; the outlet diverter is a separate Pentair part.
- Routes the flow The diverter is what sends water to the filter or out to waste when the handle is moved.
- Fixes a valve that bypasses A worn diverter lets water slip past, so the filter never fully backwashes or never fully filters.
- Serviceable valve The FullFloXF opens for service, so the diverter can be replaced without cutting the plumbing.
- Check the seals too The valve O-rings and end cap are separate items and are worth inspecting while the valve is open.

Product details
The Pentair 270200Z is the inlet diverter for the FullFloXF backwash valve. It is the genuine Pentair replacement for the internal diverter on the inlet side of the valve.
What the diverter does
Inside a push pull backwash valve, the diverter is the part that decides where water goes. Move the handle and the diverter changes the path, sending flow through the filter in one position and out to waste in the other. Everything the valve does depends on that seal being tight.
The symptom
When a diverter wears, water starts to slip past instead of being redirected. The valve backwashes weakly, or some flow goes to waste while the system is meant to be filtering. Replacing the diverter restores the separation between the two paths.
While the valve is open
This listing is the inlet diverter only. The outlet diverter, the end cap and the valve O-rings are separate Pentair items, and it is worth looking at all of them once the valve is apart.
