Jandy 4716 NeverLube® 2-Port Diverter Valve – 2" to 2.5"
The Jandy 4716 is a heavy-duty 2-way diverter valve designed for residential and commercial pool plumbing. Built with CPVC and Jandy’s proprietary “NeverLube” sealing technology, it offers reliable flow control with minimal maintenance — ideal for shutting off or redirecting water flow between systems such as filtration, heaters, or spa returns.
Key Features
- 2-port diverter configuration — allows flow to be directed to one of two lines (e.g. filter vs. bypass, pool vs. spa, heater line, etc.).
- 2" inlet / 2.5" outlet size — compatible with standard pool plumbing sizes for easy retrofit or replacement installation.
- NeverLube® positive-seal technology — proprietary CPVC seals designed to resist chemical and temperature fluctuations, eliminating the need for lubrication and reducing leak risk.
- Durable CPVC valve body — built to withstand pool chemicals, pressure, and outdoor exposure for long-term reliability.
- Easy manual operation — simple handle turn changes flow direction; compatible with automation kits (e.g. Jandy actuators) for remote control ability.

- Upgrading older valves to a reliable maintenance-free diverter.
Installation & Use Tips
- Ensure plumbing matches the valve pipe sizes (2" / 2.5") before installation; use proper CPVC primer and cement if solvent-welding to schedule-40 PVC or CPVC plumbing.
- Place the valve in a straight run where possible to reduce flow resistance and ensure a tight seal.
- If automating, pair with the appropriate valve actuator from Jandy to allow remote switching.
- Periodically inspect the valve body and seals, especially if used in saltwater or chemically aggressive environments, to ensure continued leak-free operation.
