Caretaker Union Split-Nut Repair

[Fill_It_up]

Does anyone know whether there is a split-nut repair part for the Jandy union nut [missing in the attached picture]? If so, can you share the part number? I understand that Jandy unions are reported to have a proprietary thread...

While the valve is set to cut off the flow towards the Jandy Caretaker, it is still dripping. I suspect the water is coming up through the valve body.

I’ve used Mikey’s products in the field. You won’t be disappointed. Verify the seating depth of the union nut. When I’ve used the split nut on Praher valves, they don’t seat as deep in the threads as OEM. It’s not an issue for sealing but if you’re not paying attention to it when tightening I could see potential for cracking the split nut by over torquing.
