Hayward 4-Way Ball Valve 1-1/2" FIP — ABS Body, Teflon Seats, Union End for Pool & Spa

The Hayward SP0735 Deluxe 4-way ball valve is a rugged, non-corrosive ABS valve that lets you direct and control pool or spa plumbing flows with a clear dial handle and easy-to-service union connection.

Engineered for circulation systems, this 1-1/2" FIP ball valve balances reliability and serviceability. Built from corrosion-resistant ABS and fitted with Teflon sealing surfaces, it keeps water pathways efficient while withstanding typical pool system pressures. The valve’s visual dial and union end make rerouting and maintenance straightforward for both installers and homeowners.

How does this valve simplify system routing?

The SP0735 uses a four-port ball design so you can redirect flow between multiple lines without adding extra fittings. A concise dial on the handle shows the current flow path at a glance, reducing guesswork during switching.

• 4-way ball configuration for versatile routing
• Dial-marked handle for instant position feedback
• Single unit replaces multiple tees and fittings

Is it durable enough for pool and spa plumbing?

Yes — the valve body is molded from non-corrosive ABS, and the internal seats are Teflon to resist wear from repeated operation. It’s rated for typical low-pressure pool systems up to 50 psi, providing dependable performance in circulated water.

• ABS construction resists chemical and environmental corrosion
• Teflon seats reduce leaks and wear over time
• Pressure-rated for standard pool and spa applications (up to 50 psi)

How does the union end connector help with maintenance?

The union feature aligns the ball precisely and allows quick disassembly of the piping for inspection, cleaning, or replacement. This speeds service and limits the need to cut or disturb nearby plumbing runs.

• Union end for tool-free separation of valve and pipe
• Accurate alignment reduces resealing issues after reassembly
• Simplifies replacement without disassembling adjacent fittings

What should an installer expect during setup?

Installation is straightforward with standard 1-1/2" female threaded connections; orient the valve so the dial is visible for easy monitoring. Use appropriate plumbers’ thread sealant and confirm system pressure is within the valve’s rating before commissioning.

• 1-1/2" FIP threads match common pool plumbing sizes
• Handle dial gives immediate flow position confirmation after installation
• Simple union makes future service faster and cleaner

Who is this for: The Hayward SP0735 is aimed at pool and spa technicians, DIY owners, and commercial maintainers who need a compact, serviceable multiport valve for redirecting circulation streams. It’s a practical choice when you want a corrosion-resistant, easy-to-service component that reduces the number of fittings and speeds routine maintenance.
