Pool Check Valve for Vertical Flow
This Hayward TC1300TE is a 3-inch FNPT PVC check valve built for vertical installation in pool and spa plumbing. The true-union body lets you service the valve without cutting pipe, and the EPDM seals handle chlorinated water within the rated temperature range. It suits installers who need a reliable back-flow stop on main drain or suction lines.
Upgrade from Flapper or Swing Checks
Replace older flapper-style valves that chatter or leak when debris passes through. The spring-assisted inline design opens at 3 psi cracking pressure and delivers 150 gpm full flow, so the jump is worth it when you want quieter operation and a positive seal without the hammer of a swing check.
Fits 3-Inch FNPT Schedule 40 PVC
The valve threads directly onto 3-inch female NPT fittings, so the surrounding pipework must match that size and thread type. Vertical mounting is required for correct operation, and the 150 psi rating at 70°F covers typical pump pressures. It frees up space compared with bulky swing checks and eliminates the need for a separate union fitting on each side.
