Re-plumbing Recommendation - 3 returns with automation

[xclaim494]

guys i have 3 leaking old style Jandy 3 port valves - please suggest how to re-plumb 3 new returns from SWG - I currently have SPA Return, Pool Return and Pool Drain Return as well : Didn't realize i had Pool Drain Return until recently.

I want to buy 3 new NeverLube valves and replace the old ones

any recommendations on how to replumb ? I have shared a diagram of how its currently plumbed

TY

The 3-way valve with the automation actuator shows 4 ways, so the drawing cannot be correct.

Show us pics of your actual plumbing so we can understand your situation.

you are 100% right sir : I gets confused with the 3-way Vs 2-way so I'm going to use the term 3 port and 2 port from now on. I have 3 of the 3 port valves : Here is the exact same valve i have :

Jandy Pro Series Neverlube 2"x2.5" Positive Seal 3-Port Valve | 4717

The Jandy NeverLube 4717 valve is totally maintenance free and built from the toughest CPVC material that can withstand extreme chemical and temperature fluctuations without ever leaking, cracking, or breaking.

but mine is old style off course

I have updated original post and added an image of current plumbing with callouts to all inlets

What is a Pool Drain Return? Is that a return on the pool floor?

Why not just replace the three 3-port grey valves you have with new 3-port Jandy black Neverlube diverter valves?

I don’t understand why you have three outlets on the spa side of your actuator and one flows back to the pool return.
