Quick Tips
- Install on the suction or return line to isolate equipment for off-season storage.
- Apply a thin layer of silicone lubricant to the union O-ring for a leak-free seal.
- Hand-tighten the union nut only; over-tightening with a wrench can crack the plastic.
- Turn the handle slowly to prevent water hammer and stress on your plumbing.

PRO TIP
Before winterizing, leave the valve handle at a 45-degree angle. This prevents water from being trapped inside the ball, which can freeze and crack the valve body during winter.
Always follow label directions and safety guidance. Keep pool chemicals and accessories stored safely and out of reach of children.
