Pentair In-Floor (A&A) Top Feed 6-Port 1.5" Lower Housing | 230019

The Pentair In-Floor (A&A) Top Feed 6-Port 1.5" Lower Housing (Part Number 230019) is the bottom body section of a top-feed in-floor multi-port water valve. This housing contains the internal flow passages that route water through the active port while sealing against the upper valve assembly. It’s built for durability and proper alignment to ensure reliable operation in pool cleaning systems.

Key Functions

• Acts as the base and internal flow passage body for a top-feed 6-port in-floor valve
• Supports proper sealing to prevent cross-port leakage
• Provides the internal plumbing channels that direct water into active cleaning zones
• Interfaces with the upper housing, diverter, and speed control assembly
• Durable engineered construction resists pool chemicals and stress cracking

Compatibility

• Designed for top-feed 6-port in-floor cleaning valves with 1.5" plumbing
• Used in Pentair and A&A branded in-floor systems where the top feed location and configuration match
• Not compatible with low profile or bottom feed valve designs

Fitment Tip: Verify your valve is a top-feed 6-port style and that the lower housing aligns with your plumbing size before ordering.
