When a pool filtration system starts underperforming, the first warning sign is almost always pressure. A sudden spike can signal a clogged filter, closed valve, or flow restriction. A drop can indicate suction leaks, air intrusion, or pump issues. The American Granby Top Mount Pressure Gauge (0–60 PSI) gives you an immediate, accurate read on system pressure so problems are identified early—before they turn into equipment damage or water quality failures.

Designed specifically for pool and spa filtration systems, this top-mount pressure gauge installs directly into standard filter gauge ports and delivers clear, easy-to-read PSI measurements. Whether you’re a pool service professional managing multiple accounts or a serious homeowner maintaining your own equipment, this gauge provides the reliable feedback needed to make confident service decisions.

This is not a generic plumbing gauge repurposed for pools. It is built for the operating pressures, environmental exposure, and service demands of residential and commercial pool equipment.

Why Accurate Pressure Monitoring Matters in Pool Systems

Filter pressure is one of the most important diagnostic indicators in a pool system. Without an accurate gauge, service decisions become guesswork.

Common issues identified by pressure changes include:

• Dirty or loaded filter media

• Clogged cartridges or DE grids

• Valve misalignment

• Collapsed flex pipe or blocked return lines

• Pump basket obstructions

• Air leaks on the suction side

The American Granby 0–60 PSI gauge gives a proper operating range for pool equipment, allowing you to establish a clean baseline pressure and track deviations over time. This helps prevent over-pressurization, reduces unnecessary service calls, and protects pumps, filters, and heaters from stress-related failures.

Designed for Top-Mount Pool Filter Applications

This gauge is engineered for top-mount installation, making it compatible with a wide range of pool and spa filters that use a standard pressure gauge port on the tank lid or valve assembly.

Once installed, the gauge provides a direct reading of internal filter pressure during operation. The dial is clearly marked, allowing quick readings at a glance—critical during routine service checks or troubleshooting visits.

Because the gauge range is capped at 60 PSI, it offers better resolution and accuracy in the normal operating range of pool systems compared to high-range industrial gauges that sacrifice readability.

Built for Service Professionals and Long-Term Use

American Granby is known for producing dependable pool industry components, and this pressure gauge follows that standard. It is constructed to handle frequent temperature changes, outdoor exposure, and the vibration associated with pump operation.

For service professionals, reliability matters. A failed gauge leads to misdiagnosis, repeat visits, and frustrated customers. This gauge is designed to hold calibration and provide consistent readings season after season.

For homeowners, it delivers peace of mind—allowing you to spot issues early and avoid running equipment under unsafe pressure conditions.

Clear Readability for Fast Diagnostics

The dial face is easy to read, even in bright outdoor conditions. Clear PSI markings help technicians and homeowners immediately determine whether the system is operating within its normal range.

This makes it ideal for:

• Establishing clean-filter baseline pressure

• Monitoring pressure rise between cleanings

• Confirming proper valve positioning

• Verifying post-repair system performance

Quick visual confirmation reduces guesswork and helps ensure every service adjustment is made with confidence.

Compatibility and Typical Use Cases

The American Granby Top Mount Pressure Gauge is commonly used on:

• Sand filters

• Cartridge filters

• DE filters

• Multiport valve assemblies

• Spa filtration systems

It is suitable for both residential and light commercial pool systems operating within standard pressure ranges.

If your existing gauge is fogged, stuck, cracked, or missing entirely, replacement should be immediate. Running a pool system without a working pressure gauge significantly increases the risk of filter damage and unsafe operation.

When to Replace Your Pool Pressure Gauge

You should replace your pressure gauge if:

• The needle does not return to zero when the system is off

• The gauge face is fogged or water-filled

• Readings fluctuate wildly or stick

• The dial is cracked or damaged

• The gauge is missing entirely

A pressure gauge is a low-cost component that plays a critical role in protecting high-value equipment. Replacing it proactively is always the smarter choice.
