Product details

Sta-Rite GW9016 is the vacuum regulator assembly for the Kreepy Krauly cleaner line. It sits in the suction path and limits how hard the pump can pull on the cleaner.

What the regulator does

A suction cleaner needs a particular amount of flow. Too little and it crawls or stalls, too much and it climbs the walls, sticks to the floor and chews through its own parts. The vacuum regulator bleeds off the excess so the cleaner sees the flow it was built around, whatever the pump happens to be doing.

Which cleaner it serves

This part is listed for the Kreepy Krauly LilShark and is also catalogued with Great White GW9000 and GW9500 cleaner parts. Compare the regulator on your cleaner against the photograph before ordering if you are not sure which family yours belongs to.

Questions and answers

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

Does this fit the Great White or the LilShark?
The listing names the Kreepy Krauly LilShark, and the same part is catalogued with Great White GW9000 and GW9500 cleaner parts. Both are carried here, so compare the regulator on your cleaner against the photograph before ordering.
What does a vacuum regulator do?
It limits how hard the pump can pull on the cleaner. The cleaner is designed for a specific flow, and the regulator bleeds off anything above it.
What happens if the regulator fails?
With too much suction the cleaner tends to climb walls, stick to the floor and wear through parts quickly. With too little it slows down or stalls.
What is the part number?
Sta-Rite GW9016, UPC 022315203891.
