FLOWKEEPER™ VALVE
FOR POOLS WITH A SINGLE SKIMMER ONLY
The pool pump provides more gallon per minute flow than
your G3 requires. That's why we provide a way to regulate the
flow. The Flowkeeper Valve is self adjusting and provides a
by-pass, so that the pool pump and the G3 run properly. In
single skimmer installations the Flowkeeper Valve MUST BE
used. Installations in a vac line or a second skimmer do not
require the flowkeeper.
Skimming action is maintained through a bypass throat in the
valve. As the filter collects debris, the valve automatically
maintains the correct flow to the cleaner. The Flowkeeper valve comes preset at the two (2) setting. The
lower the number, the lower the flow to the cleaner head.  Should readjustment become necessary, pull
the adjustment handle to raise or lower the setting. There are three total setting options.
