The spring supplies that pressure. When it weakens or breaks, the key floats and water crosses between ports, which usually shows up as dirty water returning to the pool after a backwash, or as a slow loss to waste while filtering.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFitting it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe spring sits under the valve cover with the key assembly, so the valve has to come apart to reach it. Since you are already there, it is worth inspecting the cover o-ring and the seat gasket and replacing them in the same visit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sta-Rite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48628938506452,"sku":"STA-061-5816","price":27.13,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_2be3924a-0597-445a-a550-ba700cd7a404.gif?v=1788758215","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/spring","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
