Product details

The Waterway 400-5090 is a 2 inch self-aligning union with a slip connection, used through pool and spa plumbing wherever a joint needs to come apart again.

Why a union earns its place

Solvent welded PVC is permanent. Put a union either side of a pump, filter or heater and that equipment can be pulled for service or replacement by loosening two nuts, instead of cutting the pipe and rebuilding the run every time. On a system that gets winterized or serviced regularly, that pays for itself quickly.

Fitting notes

The self-aligning design draws the two halves square as the nut comes up, which helps the seal seat evenly. Tighten by hand only. Union nuts seal on hand pressure, and reaching for a wrench is the usual cause of a cracked nut or a distorted seal.

Questions and answers

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

What size is this union?
2 inch, with a slip connection.
What does self-aligning mean?
The two halves draw themselves into line as you tighten the union nut, so the joint seats squarely without you having to fight the pipe into position.
Why fit a union here?
A union gives you a joint you can open. When the pump, filter or heater has to come out, you undo the union nut instead of sawing through glued pipe.
Should I use a wrench on the nut?
No. Union nuts are meant to be tightened by hand against the seal. Over-tightening with a tool is what cracks them.
