Feel free to get in touch
The Pentair 2" CPVC 3-Way Solar Diverter Valve with Drain Down (263047) is designed to regulate water flow between pool circulation systems and solar heating panels. The valve directs water either through the solar heating loop or directly back to the pool depending on heating demand.
Made from high-temperature CPVC, the valve resists chemical exposure and extreme heat conditions commonly found in solar heating systems. The integrated drain-down feature helps protect solar panels by allowing water to drain when the system shuts off.

Frequently asked questions
How do I identify the right replacement valve?
Valves are specified by port size, port count, connection type - slip, threaded or union - and body material. Measure the pipe outside diameter rather than guessing at nominal size, since PVC sizing does not match the physical measurement.
What is the part number for this valve?
Pentair lists this valve under part number 263047. Quote 263047 when you cross-reference against your equipment manual, an existing part, or a parts diagram, so you are comparing the same revision.
Why is my valve leaking or hard to turn?
Stiff operation and weeping around the stem usually mean dried-out or chemically degraded seals. Many valve bodies can be rebuilt with a service kit rather than replaced outright, which avoids cutting into the plumbing.
How do I confirm this fits my equipment?
Match the part number stamped on the component you are replacing, or look it up in the parts list for your Pentair equipment. If your model or serial number is not named on this page, send it to us before you order and we will confirm the fit.
Can I automate this valve?
Diverter valves in this style commonly accept a valve actuator so an automation system can switch them, but the actuator and its mounting hardware are separate items. Confirm the valve body is a type the actuator is rated to drive before ordering.
Is there a warranty on this valve?
It carries the standard Pentair manufacturer warranty. The terms are set by Pentair, and on some equipment the coverage only applies when a licensed professional performs the installation. Keep the receipt and packaging until you have confirmed correct operation.
