1 1/2"-2" 180 Degree Check Valve
Product Overview
The gold standard for preventing backflow, the Jandy 7235 features a high-temp CPVC body and a clear lid for instant diagnostic visibility.
The Jandy Pro Series 7235 is a 180-degree straight-through check valve designed to handle high-flow applications and extreme temperatures. Constructed from durable CPVC, it accommodates both 1.5-inch and 2-inch plumbing, making it the most versatile and reliable choice for protecting your heater or preventing spa drainage. Unlike standard PVC valves, this Jandy model is built to withstand the heat generated by pool heaters and solar systems without warping or leaking over time.
Benefits & What Makes It Different
Dual-Sized Plumbing Versatility
Designed to fit 1.5-inch pipe internally or 2-inch pipe externally, ensuring compatibility with most standard residential pool equipment pads.
High-Temperature CPVC Construction
The gray CPVC body is rated for higher temperatures than standard white PVC, preventing structural failure near heaters or in solar loops.
Clear Easy-View Lid
The transparent cover allows for immediate visual inspection of the flapper and seal without needing to disassemble the plumbing system.
Compatibility
- Fits 1.5-inch PVC pipe (slip fit inside)
- Fits 2-inch PVC pipe (slip fit outside)
- Compatible with all Jandy Pro Series valve actuators
- Suitable for salt water and chlorinated systems
When To Use This
Pro Tip
Always check the direction of the flow arrow on the side of the valve body before gluing; installing it backwards is a costly mistake that requires cutting the plumbing to fix. Also, lubricate the lid O-ring with silicone-based lubricant annually to prevent leaks.
Common Questions & Instructions
How do I know if my Jandy check valve flapper is failing?
If your spa drains into the pool overnight or you see air bubbles returning to the pool upon startup, the internal flapper or spring is likely worn and needs replacement.
Can this check valve be installed vertically or horizontally?
Yes, the Jandy 7235 is designed to function effectively in both vertical and horizontal orientations, provided the flow arrow points in the correct direction.
What is the difference between the 7235 and standard PVC check valves?
The 7235 uses a swing-check design with a spring-loaded flapper and a CPVC body, offering much lower head loss and higher heat resistance than generic spring-check valves.
