Hayward SPX0710MA Sight Glass

What This Part Is Used For
The SPX0710MA sight glass installs on compatible Hayward multiport valves to provide a visual check of water clarity during backwashing. It allows you to see when discharge water runs clean before returning the valve to filter mode.

Why This Part Matters
Without a clear sight glass, it is difficult to confirm when backwashing is complete. That can lead to incomplete cleaning or wasted water. Replacing a cracked or cloudy sight glass restores proper monitoring during filter service.
