Hayward Multi-valve And Spider Gasket Replacement

This video shows how to replace a Hayward multi-valve that has a worn spider gasket. This gasket is not longer sold individually and comes pre glued to the multi-valve so the while valve assembly has to be purchased.They are about $60 online and nearly $100 at a pool supply store.

You should have told us to rotate the valve to closed or winter over before removing the assembly! I’m soaked!, but it worked.

Thanks!! I didn’t realize that these were able to be repaired.

Pretty good video. Probably should inform viewers to mark the side of the housing before disassembly so they don't forget which direction it goes back on.

You absolutely can buy the gaskets separately. 7 years ago and today. I've been doing it for years.

Good video, only thing you need to add lubricant on O ring as well.

So were you loosing water to the backwash line with it in filter mode? That is what's happening to me now.

Easy way to remove old spider gasket that appears was installed with some kind of adhesive?

[tashadriguez]

Would you all please share links to the gasket or whole unit?

Recommend just buying a new O-ring while you're at it...
