- 24 volt Runs on the 24V low voltage output that pool controllers provide.
- 15 ft. cable Comes with 15 feet of cable as standard, enough to reach most valves from the equipment pad.
- Motorized rotation The actuator turns the valve handle under command instead of someone walking out to do it.
- The automation building block This is how pool and spa mode, solar diverting and water features get switched without a person at the pad.

Product details
The Hayward GVA-24 is a 24V valve actuator with a 15 ft. cable. It is the piece that turns a manual 3-way valve into an automated one.
How it works
The actuator is a motorized head that retrofits onto the top of a 3-way valve. The valve itself and its plumbing stay exactly where they are. When a controller sends the signal, the actuator rotates the valve to the position it was told to take.
What it buys you
This is the hardware behind every convenience people expect from an automated pool. Switching between pool and spa, diverting flow to solar panels, running a water feature on a schedule: each of those is a valve that has to move, and this is what moves it.
Installation notes
The actuator comes with 15 feet of cable, which covers the run from the equipment pad to most valve positions. It needs a 24V low voltage supply from the controller.
