Jandy R0449000 2″ × 2½″ Pump/Heater Union & Tailpiece Set (2-Pack)

The Jandy R0449000 is a replacement union and tailpiece kit used to connect 2″ pool plumbing to 2.5″ pump or heater inlets/outlets. This OEM-grade kit includes everything needed for a secure, leak-tight connection: two tail pieces, two coupling nuts, and two O-rings — ideal for upgrades, repairs, or equipment swaps on certain Jandy (and Zodiac/Jandy-branded) pumps and heaters.

Key Features

2″ slip/pipe plumbing → 2½″ pump/heater union sizing — accommodates common transitions between pool plumbing and newer/higher-flow equipment.
Includes (2) coupling nuts, (2) tail pieces, and (2) O-rings — everything needed for a full union replacement or dual-connection installation.
OEM quality — ensures correct fit and full sealing for compatible Jandy and Zodiac pump/heater models.
Durable PVC/CPVC with chemical resistance — built to withstand pool water, chemicals, and typical outdoor exposure.
Reusable union style — allows easy disassembly for maintenance or winterizing without cutting or re-gluing PVC lines.

Specifications

Manufacturer: Jandy (Zodiac/Jandy brand)
Part Number: R0449000
Includes: 2 tail-pieces + 2 coupling nuts + 2 O-rings (union set)
Input / Output Size: 2″ plumbing → 2½″ pump/heater port
Connection Style: Slip (pipe) to union/spigot — union nut on equipment side for easy assembly/disassembly
Material: Pool-rated PVC/CPVC composite plastics and rubber O-rings
Typical Use: Transition unions for pumps/heaters (plumbing ↔ equipment), including newer Jandy PlusHP, MaxHP, WaterFeature pumps, and compatible Jandy heaters.

Common Applications

Conversion or repair when replacing a pump or heater with different port sizing than existing plumbing.
Upgrading older equipment — allows reuse of 2″ PVC plumbing with newer 2½″-ported pumps/heaters.
Facilitating easier maintenance or seasonal servicing thanks to union-style connection.
Ideal for circulation systems, heater loops, or high-flow setups requiring reliable, leak-resistant plumbing transitions.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

Ensure plumbing is cut square and clean before gluing 2″ slip pipe into the tail-piece. Use PVC primer and solvent if required by code.
Lubricate the O-rings lightly with a pool-safe silicone lubricant before tightening the union nut to avoid leaks and ensure easy future removal.
Hand-tighten union nuts snugly, then give a final slight snug-up — avoid over-tightening to prevent cracking.
Inspect O-rings periodically (seasonally or annually) for compression set, cracks or wear — replace O-rings if seal integrity is compromised.
Before startup, always prime the pump and inspect for leaks — check union seals if water loss or air intrusion occurs.

Why Stock R0449000

Because many Jandy- or Zodiac-branded pumps and heaters use 2½″ ports while a large number of pool plumbing systems are built with 2″ PVC, the R0449000 union set is a useful transition part. Having it in inventory allows quick, correct plumbing conversions or repairs — reducing labor time and avoiding costly re-plumbing or improper fittings.
