Title: Will it work?
Post by: roost on May 29, 2015, 12:02:40 PM

I had the WJ converted to use Berk-style components, and want to keep my Place diverter. The nozzle housings are obviously different, but will a regular Berk split bowl nozzle housing work to adapt my diverter to this pump? Basically asking if the ball/socket on a Place is the same as a standard Berk.

When I talked to Josh @ JBP, He said that a "late' style Place diverters for Jacuzzi will fit, (Had a jacuzzi specific steering adapter for the berk diverter) the early fit the original Jacuzzi steering adapter.

I have an early one and won't fit a berk steering adapter. (Measured it...never tried fitting it)

Yours might be a late, I'm not that lucky.

Thats all I know.

It is a later style diverter and I'm thinking the Place will work on a Berk adapter. Once everything is installed and sorted out I won't need the WJ/Place housing.

I'll be using the diverter, but with a berk style nozzle housing. I won't need the WJ nozzle housing (what those with a WJ bowl will need to use the Place diverter).
