Description
The Astral 3 kg chlorinator is drained through a small tap. If it leaks or its handle breaks, the whole connection is at risk. This original Mountfield part replaces it without adapters or modifications.
What it is for
The water from the chlorinator drains out through the tap. A hose is attached to its outlet, so draining is clean and controlled.
Signs of wear
The handle is turned often, and the seal wears out gradually. If the tap drips even when closed, or the handle is cracked, replace it immediately – this protects the surrounding components from moisture and chemicals and avoids losing water.
