River Country On/Off Plunger Valve with Strainer for Easy Set, Frame Set & Ultra Frame Pools Intex, Bestway, Coleman Compatible

I have truly appreciated this item. Its saved time and $$ (water). One must remember they are only plastic and not as strong as other materials. They have been great for me!

This came in handy and did the job

If you have an above ground pool and are looking to upgrade your valves this item is great.

Bought a Coleman 22x52 pool at Wal-Mart. It DID NOT COME WITH the part for hole A. After giving up on trying to contact them for a replacement I found this! The price, look, and quality is spot on! Highly recommend! I ordered it on July 1st said it would deliver July 11th and got it today July 6th!! Very happy with my purchase!

Product works well and functioned as intended for a stock tank pool inlet for an Intex 12” sand filter/pump combo. Many reviews will tell you to use a 3 3/4 inch hole saw. I would disagree with this. I used a 3 5/8 inch hole saw and everything fit super nice with a lot smaller gap. The Intex hoses that came with the pump screwed right onto these. You can feel suction which is nice but it is very focused. The ability to turn off the valve and service the pump and hoses without losing water is nice.One thing to keep in mind with this fitting you will not be able directly hook up a pool vacuum hose without turning this off and disconnecting the hose at the pump, taking the inlet screen off and finding a hose adaptor, or figuring out a way to get a hose to fit over the assembly. I am going to try to do the latter with rubber hose connectors and some pvc from Lowe’s if there is a rubber connector large enough to fit over the outside cap.

I've bought these in the past but newer version has a different inlet cover. not like shown in the images, much smaller opening and easy to get stuck to if only 1 inlet is used. Still a good buy as the shut off valve is great and they are better than the Intex version.

Worked great

The media could not be loaded. I highly recommend it if you were thinking about upgrading to an inch-and-a-half Inlet you just need to cut out the inlet and make it bigger to be able to fit these in. I'm a much happier Dad!
