Common Questions & Instructions
Is the Pentair CVA24 compatible with other automation brands like Jandy or Hayward?
Yes, the CVA24 uses a standard 3-pin plug and operates on 24VAC, making it compatible with most major pool automation systems on the market today.
How do I change the direction of the valve rotation on the CVA-24T?
There is a three-position toggle switch located on the bottom of the actuator that allows you to reverse the rotation or turn the motor off entirely.
What should I do if the actuator stops turning but the motor is humming?
This often indicates that the internal cams need adjustment or the diverter inside the valve is stuck; check for debris before replacing the unit.
