Compatibility Checks for Online Orders
Online customers often confirm valve brand and size before completing checkout.
How can I verify that the O-536KIT fits my diverter valve?
Check the valve body for PacFab or Compool markings and verify whether your plumbing size is 1½ or 2 inches. The O-536KIT supports both configurations.
Can this kit be used to rebuild valves from older pool systems?
Yes, Compool and PacFab diverter valves maintained standardized dimensions over time, making this kit suitable for older installations.
Will these new O-rings help reduce leaks or stiff handle movement?

Installation and Setup After Delivery
SOSPool.com customers frequently want clear guidance on how to apply the included O-rings.
Where do each of the O-rings in the O-536KIT go?
The G-480 split seal installs beneath the lid, the two O-158 seals fit on the shaft, and the O-248 seats within the main valve body. Matching them to removed components ensures correct placement.
What steps should I take to prepare the valve for resealing?
Clean the interior surfaces, remove scale deposits, and apply a thin layer of approved lubricant to help the new seals seat properly.
What should I check after reassembling the valve?
Ensure smooth rotation, verify that no water appears around the lid or handle, and confirm that flow direction changes correctly when the diverter is turned.
