{"product_id":"hayward-in-line-gage-for-automatic-pool-cleaners-axv096gr","title":"Hayward In Line Gage for Automatic Pool Cleaners | AXV096GR","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe Hayward AXV096GR is a genuine OEM in-line vacuum gauge designed for use with Hayward suction-side automatic pool cleaners including the Navigator, Pool Vac Plus, Pool Vac Ultra, and Pool Vac XL. The gauge connects directly in-line with the cleaner hose and measures vacuum suction pressure in inches of mercury (0–30 HG) on a 2-inch face dial, giving pool owners and service technicians an accurate, real-time reading of the suction available to the cleaner at any point in the hose. The standard rule of thumb is 1 inch of vacuum per hose section — a reading outside this range quickly identifies whether the system has adequate suction, a flow restriction, a clogged filter, or a hose leak, eliminating the guesswork from pool cleaner troubleshooting. Features a 1\/8-inch rear NPT connection for easy in-line installation. Also cross-references Pentair part number R36006 and replaces legacy Hayward part V096P.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGenuine Hayward OEM Diagnostic Tool:\u003c\/strong\u003e Factory-authorized AXV096GR vacuum gauge manufactured by Hayward to OEM specifications, engineered specifically for use with Hayward suction-side automatic pool cleaners including the Navigator, Pool Vac Plus, Pool Vac Ultra, and Pool Vac XL series.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e0–30 HG Vacuum Measurement on 2\" Face Dial:\u003c\/strong\u003e The large, easy-to-read 2-inch dial measures vacuum pressure from 0 to 30 inches of mercury, providing a precise, at-a-glance suction reading directly in the cleaner hose for fast, accurate performance diagnosis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEliminates Guesswork from Pool Cleaner Troubleshooting:\u003c\/strong\u003e The industry-standard benchmark of 1 inch of vacuum per hose section makes the AXV096GR an invaluable diagnostic tool — a reading above or below this range instantly identifies suction deficits, flow restrictions, clogged filters, air leaks, or hose problems without disassembly.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSimple In-Line Installation with 1\/8\" Rear NPT Connection:\u003c\/strong\u003e Connects directly in-line with the cleaner hose via a 1\/8-inch rear NPT fitting for quick, straightforward installation and removal — no special tools required for routine suction testing and cleaner performance checks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCross-References Pentair R36006 | Replaces V096P:\u003c\/strong\u003e Also listed as a direct cross-reference for Pentair part number R36006 and replaces legacy Hayward vacuum gauge part number V096P, making it easy to confirm compatibility across multiple parts references and service documentation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Hayward","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53365715271980,"sku":"AXV096GR","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/1943\/3260\/files\/sosHaywardInLineGageforAutomaticPoolCleanersAXV096GR_2.jpg?v=1782151510","url":"https:\/\/www.sospool.com\/products\/hayward-in-line-gage-for-automatic-pool-cleaners-axv096gr","provider":"SOS Pool \u0026 Spa Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
