Adjustable Orifice Technology
The G4 adjustable-orifice design allows water output to be tailored according to the location of each cleaning head.
With four available flow settings, installers can balance the in-floor system so that different areas of the swimming pool receive the appropriate amount of water movement.
This helps improve circulation while directing dirt and debris toward the pool's designated collection or suction points.
Enhanced Construction
Pentair designed the newer G4 head with upgraded internal components, including stronger construction and improved springs.
These enhancements help provide consistent pop-up action and reliable operation through repeated cleaning cycles.
Light Gray Finish
The light gray color is designed to blend with many modern swimming pool interiors, including:
- Light gray plaster
- Pebble finishes
- Quartz finishes
- Aggregate surfaces
- Contemporary pool interiors
Matching the correct cleaning-head color helps maintain a clean, finished appearance across the pool floor.
