Hello to all the folks that are still hanging around here! Been a while since I've been here: all has been working great water-wise.

Looking for recommendations for a replacement for my Fleck 7000 SXT. I only need simple backwash (that's all I'm using the Fleck for): BW tank is 10" x 54". My Fleck is working great, still, but as these are older their parts are harder to come by. I've only ever needed to replace the control board and it's this that has me concerned as they're now hard to find (I should have bought a spare when I got the replacement!). I'm seeing these boards going for $200 - $250 in which case I am wondering if I'd be better off sinking money into a new unit/head (having it at the ready for when the 7000 SXT hiccups).

Is there a Fleck model that is electro-mechanical that allows for setting duration on the backwash and rapid rinse cycles AND would be a replacement for my 7000? The 3200 timer has this capability but I have no clue about this valve; is this commercial?
