Hello everyone. So I’m replacing the multiport valve on my sand filter this year as the previous one started leaking last year. I removed the old multiport valve, and now I’m having devil of a time getting the new one on there. It seems to me like the standpipe might be too long, since it seems to bottom out before getting to the filter body.
The standpipe is sticking up about 2” from the filter body; looking at other pictures, it seems like the standpipe is supposed to be recessed into the filter body. Does anyone know if the standpipe sticking above the filter body means it’s too long? If that is the case, can I just cut it to the right length?
