Val-Pak New Style 3" Slide Valve Repair Kit is a replacement repair kit for compatible 3 inch new style slide valve assemblies. Slide valves are used to open, close, or divert flow in pool and spa plumbing, and a worn internal assembly can cause leaking, poor shutoff, difficult handle movement, or water bypass. This Val-Pak kit is intended to help restore serviceability without replacing more plumbing than necessary, provided the valve body is still in good condition. It is a practical option for equipment pads where cutting out the entire valve would be time-consuming or disruptive. Before ordering, compare the existing valve style, size, handle design, and sealing components with the repair kit details and part number 38949.
