Product details

The Waterway 511-1310 is the trap lid for the SVL56 pool pump. It is the genuine Waterway replacement for the clear cover over the strainer pot.

What the lid is doing

Everything on the suction side of a pool pump depends on the trap lid holding a seal. If the lid is cracked, crazed or sitting on a tired o-ring, the pump draws air instead of water and either loses prime outright or runs noisily with a swirl of bubbles in the pot. It is also the window onto the strainer basket, so a clouded lid means you stop noticing when the basket is full.

Fitting it

This is a direct replacement for the lid already on the pump. While you have it off, look at the lid o-ring and the sealing surface of the pot. A new lid on a flattened seal will not fix a prime problem, and lubricating the seal to the manufacturer instructions keeps the next lid from sticking or being overtightened.

Questions and answers

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

Which pump is this lid for?
The Waterway SVL56. It is Waterway part 511-1310.
Does it come with the lid o-ring?
The listing covers the trap lid. Inspect the o-ring while the lid is off and replace it if it is flattened or cracked, because a new lid on a tired seal will still lose prime.
Why will my pump not hold prime?
A cracked or poorly seated trap lid is one of the first things to check. The lid has to seal to hold vacuum on the suction side.
Is it a genuine Waterway part?
Yes. It is the Waterway OEM trap lid, part number 511-1310.
