If you have a leaky multiport around the handle it's usually more cost effective to replace the lid assembly versus trying to rebuild it. Let's see how that's done. Check us out at chlorinekingpools.com

Thank you for this very clear demonstration! I ordered the replacement valve online for $44 and replaced it without issue because of your instructions. You saved me a call to the overpriced pool company!

Helpful thanks. I found this video because my problem is I just installed a brand new S180T sand filter and multivalve top (replaced an old one of the exact same set up). All is perfect, except my brand new multiport valve is leaking from the very top / handle!!?? Any thoughts on what could possibly be wrong with a brand new, sealed product in box?

I had to order a new valve, but I tossed the old one already and forgot what position the handle was in. If the new one comes in the closed position but I possibly took the old 1 off in the filter position am I kinda screwed is there a notch or something to put it in the correct position?
@ChlorineKingPoolService3 ай бұрын
If you look at the link below you can see if you picture a clock, the “filter mode” notch (Hayward logo) on top of the multiport valve handle is at 12 o’clock and the side of the MPV with two ports is at 9 o’clock. Which is the same orientation as shown in my video. So I think that’s the way yours should go if you have this same MPV. A quick browse on the internet shows the same orientation as well. Proceed with caution and use at your own risk. Good luck! 👍 www.poolzoom.com/complete-vari-flo-sp714t-xl-1-5-top-mount-valve-kit.html?gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADm5WKNWWdg8W0Wy2GifxD9Bb0Fme&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI9oPfmKerhgMVgp5aBR0NDQRMEAQYISABEgKOyvD_BwE

Yes you can but it’s sort of a pain. The handle/lid assembly can be completely disassembled. Just a pain to put back together. I hope this helps.

My Hayward Multiport Valve is 20 years old and leaking from the handle and maybe the sides too. Do I need an entire new valve unit? Also, my pool installers did not put a plumbing cut off valve from the pool to the motor or the filter; can just shutting off the motor and draining the filter get rid of all the water in order to replace this unit if I have to?
@danujus773 жыл бұрын
How do I put the lid back on correctly? My filter doesn't gave any notches.
@ChlorineKingPoolService3 жыл бұрын
I always like to take a picture before I take something apart that I'm not familiar with. You can generally match the grove in the lid with the groove that holds the O-Ring in the bottom half of the MPV. If you don't feel comfortable with this please contact your local pool professional so they can do it!

@timwalls14524 жыл бұрын
If the handle broke off I'm assuming it was super difficult to turn, probably the result of the spider gasket not being lubed. Next time it gets tight, move the handle halfway between two ports (to depressurise the filter), unscrew the head and replace/re-lube the gasket. If you go down the re-lube path, just keep in mind that a spider gasket that's been wrenched around due to being too tight could now easily be warped and allow water to leak regardless of now being freshly lubed.
