Intermatic RC4G 1″ Gunite Air Button
The Intermatic RC4G air button is designed for gunite or concrete pool and spa installations to provide a clean, low-profile control point for air-actuated equipment. It connects via 1/8″ tubing to a control relay in the equipment pad and delivers reliable operation of pumps, blowers, lighting or other high-voltage systems without additional hazardous switch wiring at the deck.
Key Features
- Fits 1″-schedule wall conduit for gunite or concrete installations.
- Low-profile button flush-mounts the deck for a neat finish.
- Supports up to 100 ft of air-tube run for flexible equipment layouts.
- Ideal for retrofits or new construction where equipment controls must be deck-mounted away from wet surfaces.
Technical Specifications
- Part Number: RC4G
- Mounting Size: 1″ schedule conduit (gunite wall)
- Connection: 1/8″ air tubing to remote relay

Installation & Compatibility Notes
Before installation, ensure the equipment circuit is isolated and the air tubing path is free of kinks or debris. Install the button in a 1″ conduit stub-out around the deck surface, insert the tubing securely, and flush the assembly so the face is level with the finished surface. Route the air-tube to the equipment pad, connect to the relay or switch module, and test operation before final fill-out. Verify smooth operation of the button and correct actuation of the equipment.
Maintenance Tips
- Check periodically for water or debris in the air-tube—moisture or blockage can cause failure.
- Inspect the button face for chips or corrosion after concrete finishing—damage can impair seal or operation.
- Keep spare tubing and connectors in your service kit to support quick turnaround on equipment control issues.
