    Rapid Drain Flap on Pentair Prowler 920

    Randomly found my rapid drain flap floating in the water. Tried putting back with my fingers and didn’t last 5 min.

    Hello from South Austin new build

    Paying the $2500 fee for BYOP in my area today. Excited for the journey but I’m sure there will be bumps in the road. Once I get designs in a few days I’ll start an under construction thread. This is a great forum I have followed for over a year.
