Pros: Very easy to install
Cons: none
Diagrams were great in finding the right part for the chlorinator. It was very easy to replace. With free shipping (had to buy something else with it), price could not be beaten.

(5 out of 5 stars) Replaced old leaky valve
Reviewed By: Roger J. ()
Water was leaking out of the bottom of the valve after five years. Ordered new one instead of replacing the whole chlorinator and replaced it with no tools. Just disconnect the old one and replace with the new one. Five minutes start to finish and solved the leak problem.
