Pentair Control Valves

The Industry Standard for Water Treatment

Pentair control valves are the heart of every professional water-treatment installation. As an official Pentair distributor, AQUA HUB GROUP offers the complete range of control valves from the three leading brands: Fleck, Autotrol and SIATA. These valves are produced at the Pentair factory in Pisa, Italy, and are renowned worldwide for their reliability, durability and technological innovation. With more than 40 years of experience in water treatment, Pentair has built up unrivalled expertise in designing control valves that meet the highest quality standards.

The Fleck range, including the popular Fleck 5600 and Fleck 5800, has been developed specifically for residential and light commercial applications. These valves feature a UV-resistant, glass-fibre-reinforced polymer body that ensures years of trouble-free operation. The Fleck 5600 is suitable for tanks up to 12 inches in diameter and offers an excellent balance between performance and ease of use. For larger installations, the Fleck 2850 is the ideal choice, with flow capacities of up to 26 GPM, suitable for commercial and industrial applications.

The Autotrol line likewise offers high-quality solutions for a wide variety of applications. The Autotrol 255 Easy-iQ is a non-corrosive, UV-resistant valve with a dual backwash design, ideal for tanks up to 14 inches. For professional installers working in tight spaces, the compact Autotrol 368 Series is the perfect solution. The Autotrol Performa range, including the 263/268 and 269 models, is designed for demanding commercial applications where reliability is crucial.

Frequently asked questions about Pentair Control Valves

What is the difference between a Fleck and an Autotrol control valve?
Fleck and Autotrol are both premium Pentair brands, but they have different fields of application. Fleck valves are particularly popular for residential and light commercial water softeners and filters. Autotrol valves are known for their robustness and are often chosen for commercial and industrial applications. SIATA valves are the European alternative, with specific advantages for the European market. At AQUA HUB GROUP, we help you make the right choice for your specific situation.
How long does a Pentair control valve last?
Pentair control valves are known for their exceptional service life. With correct maintenance and use, Fleck and Autotrol valves can last 15 to 25 years. Service life depends on factors such as water quality, frequency of use and regular maintenance. The high-quality materials and construction of Pentair valves, including UV-resistant polymers and corrosion-resistant components, ensure years of reliable operation.
Which Pentair control valve is suitable for my water softener?
Choosing the right control valve depends on your tank size, flow requirement and application. For residential installations with tanks up to 12 inches in diameter, the Fleck 5600 is the most popular choice. For larger residential or light commercial systems, the Fleck 5800 is ideal. Commercial installations benefit from the Fleck 2850 or the Autotrol Performa range. Contact AQUA HUB GROUP for personal advice.
Can I upgrade a Pentair control valve to a newer controller?
Yes, many Pentair control valves are compatible with newer controllers. For example, a Fleck 5600 can be fitted with the modern NXT2 or SXT controller for improved functionality and programming options. This is a cost-effective way to modernise an existing installation without replacing the complete valve. AQUA HUB GROUP supplies all compatible controllers and can advise on upgrade options.
What is proportional brining on Pentair valves?
Proportional brining is an advanced regeneration technology in which the amount of brine (salt solution) is adjusted to the actual exhaustion of the resin media. Instead of a fixed amount of salt at every regeneration, only the amount required is used. This results in significantly lower salt and water consumption, lower operating costs and more environmentally friendly operation.
How do I install a Pentair control valve correctly?
Installing a Pentair control valve requires attention to a few important points: correct connection of inlet and outlet, correct positioning of the distributor in the tank, and correct programming of the controller. Pentair supplies comprehensive installation manuals with every valve. For professional installers, AQUA HUB GROUP offers technical support and training. We always recommend having installations carried out by qualified professionals.
Which spare parts are available for Pentair control valves?
AQUA HUB GROUP supplies the complete range of Pentair spare parts, including: pistons and seals, O-rings and gaskets, injector kits, distributors, motor drives, circuit boards and controllers, and complete repair kits. All parts are genuine Pentair parts that ensure your installation continues to perform to specification.
What is the difference between time-clock and volumetric regeneration?
Time-clock regeneration takes place at fixed, programmed times, regardless of water consumption. Volumetric regeneration takes actual water consumption into account and only starts when the capacity of the resin media has been reached. Volumetric regeneration is more efficient and saves water and salt, but requires a water meter. Most modern Pentair controllers support both modes.
Are Pentair control valves suitable for drinking-water applications?
Yes, all Pentair control valves are certified for use with drinking water and comply with the strict European and international standards for materials in contact with drinking water. The polymers and elastomers used are food-grade and contain no harmful substances. This makes Pentair valves suitable for water softening, filtration and other drinking-water treatments.
