Introducing the Rojo Compact SST: A Direct Upgrade for Pool Auto Levelers

Most pool auto levelers ship with a float valve that's serviceable at best — it keeps the pool topped off, but slowly, and it's often the first thing to wear out or under-deliver once the leveler's been in service a while. The new Rojo Compact SST is built specifically to replace that valve — in a new installation or an existing one — and boost the water flow going into the leveler.

Built for the Pool Industry Specifically

This isn't the same Rojo Compact used on livestock troughs — it's a distinct product engineered for auto pool leveler applications, where the demands are different: consistent, moderate flow (1–5 GPM depending on inlet pressure), a compact footprint that fits inside an existing leveler housing, and non-corrosive materials built to handle chlorinated water rather than trough or tank conditions.

What Makes It a Straightforward Swap

A few details make this a practical drop-in replacement rather than a project:

• Easy thumbscrew float adjustment — dial in the exact pool level without tools
• Lock-off switch on the arm — service the valve without shutting down the main water supply
• Weighted float for stability — steadier response than a lightweight float in a leveler's often-turbulent water conditions
• Two inlet sizes — 3/8" NPT and 1/2" NPT, covering most existing leveler fittings

Rated for Real Pool Conditions

The Rojo Compact SST handles up to 140°F (60°C) and a 0–100 PSI pressure range — if your supply runs higher than that, a pressure-reducing valve ahead of it brings it into range. It's NSF/ANSI 372 compliant and CSA certified, the same certification standard covered in more detail here, so material safety isn't a question mark on a product going into a pool.

Where This Fits Next to Top-Up Turtle

If you're comparing this to the Top-Up Turtle, the distinction is straightforward: Top-Up Turtle is a portable, hose-fed device for pools and ponds with no existing plumbing — set it at the water's edge and go. The Rojo Compact SST is for pools that already have an auto leveler system installed, where the internal valve itself needs replacing or upgrading. Different problem, same goal — a pool that stays at the right level without manual attention.

Getting One

The Rojo Compact SST is available now in both 3/8" and 1/2" NPT, $44.99. If you're not sure which inlet size your existing leveler uses, contact us and we can help you confirm before you order.
