About This Item
The Pentair C1-271P1Z is the OEM replacement diffuser for the Max-E-Pro series inground pump.
The diffuser channels water flow from the impeller into the pump's volute, converting velocity into pressure to maintain efficient hydraulic output. A cracked, worn, or incorrectly seated diffuser reduces pump performance and can cause cavitation — replacing it with the correct OEM part restores designed flow characteristics. Match the part number stamped or molded on your existing diffuser before ordering to confirm fitment.

Pro Tip
When replacing the diffuser, inspect the impeller and wear ring at the same time — these components wear together and a new diffuser paired with a worn impeller will not fully restore pump performance. The part number is molded into the diffuser body; confirm it matches C1-271P1Z before installing.
