Application Scope
The Hayward SLC10100SU is a true-union Y-pattern check valve built for 1-inch PVC piping systems. Its spring-loaded design provides positive shut-off against back-flow in pool, spa and irrigation circuits. The valve handles water pressures up to 150 psi at 70 Degrees F and operates between 40 and 140 Degrees F.
Suitability
This valve suits installers who need a removable, socket-weld check valve with a low cracking-pressure range of 2.000 to 15.000 psi. The FPM seals and stainless-steel spring resist common pool chemicals. It is not rated for steam service and the true-union ends require solvent-cement sockets, so systems using threaded, flanged or compression connections cannot use this model directly.
Deciding Specification
The socket-by-socket true-union connection combined with a 1-inch pipe size is the single detail that determines fit. Verify the existing line uses 1-inch PVC socket ends and that the required cracking pressure falls within the 2.000 to 15.000 psi range before purchasing.

Questions about this item
What pipe size and connection type must the existing plumbing have for this 1 in Y-check valve?
The valve is built for 1 in pipe with socket-by-socket connections, so the mating pipe and fittings must be 1 in socket ends.
Can this spring-loaded check valve be installed in the same horizontal or vertical runs as an older swing-check valve?
Yes, the valve is rated for both horizontal and vertical mounting orientations, so it can replace a swing check in either position.
How can I verify the valve is sealing properly after installation?
Apply system pressure up to 150 psi at 70 °F; the valve should open between 2.000 and 15.000 psi and close with zero leakage when flow stops.
