How do Pentair OEM pool products compare to Non-OEM Pentair pool products?
Pentair OEM pool products meet exact Pentair specifications. As a result, they provide reliable fit and consistent performance. Additionally, materials and quality control meet strict Pentair standards. They offer dependable operation and lasting system integrity.
Non-OEM products cost less. However, material quality and manufacturing precision vary. Compatibility with Pentair systems is not guaranteed. Lifespan and performance may be reduced. Overall, OEM components deliver quality, while non-OEM products, deliver uncertainty.
Pro Tip: Pentair 261152 2" DE Multiport Valve
It is important to always shut off the pump before working on or operating the valve handle. Also, shut off the pump when working the filter. If this is not followed it can cause damage and unnecessary pressure to the filter or valve.
Also, do not order a multiport valve because it is 2 inch or 1.5 inch. Pay attention to the brand, filter compatibility, and mount style. These must match to avoid unnecessary purchases.
