A cracked, warped, or leaking inlet piping assembly compromises water distribution inside the tank, reducing filtration efficiency and potentially allowing unfiltered water to bypass the media. Replacing it with the correct OEM assembly restores proper flow geometry and sealing within the filter head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 20px 0; border: 1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePentair Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e156344\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart Name\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003ePiping Assembly, Upper Inlet — TR100C \/ TR140C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity Included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e1 (Each)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFits Into\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; margin: 20px 0; border: 1px solid #ccc;\"\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEquipment Line\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel \/ Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003ePentair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eTriton C Sand Filter — TR Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eTR100C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e—\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background-color: #f8f9fa;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003ePentair\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eTriton C Sand Filter — TR Series\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003eTR140C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"border: 1px solid #ccc; padding: 10px;\"\u003e—\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCompatibility is based on Pentair parts documentation and available OEM records.

Confirm your unit is the TR100C or TR140C, as other Triton series models use different inlet piping assemblies that are not interchangeable. If the original part is still accessible, match the part number molded or stamped on it to 156344 before adding to cart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- wft:processed:manual:2026-04-06 --\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53960100413715,"sku":"156344","price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/0687\/5411\/files\/pentair-piping-assembly-upper-inlet-triton-c-tr100c-tr140c-sand-filter-156344-2.webp?v=1781079298","url":"https:\/\/poolaroo.com\/products\/pentairwaterpoolandspainc_156344","provider":"Poolaroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
