Leaking valve

I have an above ground pool with a Hayward filter and valve. Recently the valve is discharging water out the valve drain as well as back into the pool. I have changed the spring in the valve, but this didn’t stop the leak.

That is usually the sign of a bad spider gasket. Have you replaced the spider gasket in the valve? What is the part number on the valve?

Yes I did replace the spider gasket. Watching your site I installed it upside down. I will reinstall it correctly and see what happens.

Good luck!
