Before I ask my question, I must say this is a fabulous site for information on operating a pool. We just purchased a home with an indoor pool (16x32 concrete) and from not knowing anything about running a pool before, I managed to bring down the pH from 8.2+ to 7.6, clear up a bit of algae, figure out how to backwash, clean a pump filter, and other misc. items with almost nothing puchased at a pool store. Thanks everyone for all the valuable information.
My question is concerning a sourcing a replacement part for my system. I have been searching for a replacement diverter assembly for an old Compool Y style valve that is used to switch between a spa and the pool. The diverter handle was broken due to inadequate maintenance by the previous owners. It would be tricky to replace the whole valve due to a tight piping location. Pentair bought Compool and this valve has been discontinued. The replacement parts are still listed on some web sites but when I contact the stores, they say the parts are no langer available to order. Would anyone here know of any stocking parts sources that may still have one sitting on a shelf?
The specific part I am looking for is listed as:
Part Number: DIV-25F under PacFab or 270093 under Pentair
Description: Maintenance-Free Div. Assy. For FRE-2Y, PTV-2Y and PRO-3 Valves
Any leads that people might have would be appreciated.
Thank you
