Air Check Valve for 2-Inch Spigot Pool Plumbing

Waterway Plastics Air Check Valve

Waterway Plastics offers the Air Check Valve, a backflow-prevention valve designed for 2-Inch x 2-Inch spigot pool and spa plumbing. This component helps prevent backflow and supports smooth water flow in pool and spa systems. It is intended for technicians and professional installers upgrading or replacing components in standard 2-inch lines. The valve integrates with typical pool plumbing setups using common 2-inch connections.

Key Features

• Durable Construction designed to withstand high-pressure conditions and provide long-lasting reliability.
• Prevents Backflow to maintain a consistent flow and reduce reverse-flow risk in the return and suction paths.
• Easy Installation with 2" spigot fittings that integrate into standard pool plumbing.
• Spring-Loaded Mechanism using a.25# spring for reliable operation across cycling conditions.
• Part number 600-8160 in a 2-Inch x 2-Inch spigot configuration for versatile use.

Where This Part Is Used

In typical pool and spa plumbing, this valve is found in skimmer assemblies, near jet bodies, and along return lines where backflow protection improves overall flow stability. It is commonly installed in pump pathways and filtration circuits to safeguard against reverse flow during pump start-up or shut-down periods. The 2-inch spigot configuration makes it compatible with standard 2-inch piping and fittings used across Waterway components. When integrated, it supports consistent water pressure and reduces the likelihood of siphoning issues that can affect filtration efficiency. This valve also appears in configurations that require additional backflow protection between multiple assemblies within a single loop.
