Hayward SP1072S In-Line Sight Glass - Socket

What This Part Is Used For
The SP1072S in-line sight glass with socket connection installs in compatible Hayward plumbing lines to visually monitor water flow. It is commonly used on return or backwash lines to confirm circulation.

Why This Part Matters
A clear sight glass allows quick visual confirmation of water movement during filter backwashing or system startup. Without it, diagnosing flow issues becomes guesswork. Replacing a cracked or cloudy sight glass restores visibility and helps prevent improper valve operation.
