Hayward C500 StarClear Cartridge Pool Filter, 50 Square Foot

Hayward Star-Clear 50 square foot cartridge filters provide crystal clear water and have extra cleaning capacity for pools up to 12,000 gallons. For replacement or new pool installations, Star-Clear sets the standard of excellence and value. A single locking knob securely fastens head to filter tank, eliminating bolts or clamps. The filter head may be rotated to conveniently position pressure gauge and manual air relief. The filter tank is injection-molded for dependable, corrosion-free performance. An extra-large cartridge element with new precision engineered extruded core provides extra-strength and maximum flow. An elevated, filtered water collector and debris sump prevents accidental by-pass of heavy debris to pool or spa when cartridge is removed for cleaning. The filter features 1.5 inch FIP connections for plumbing versatility and a 0.5 inch FIP filter drain for fast draining for elevated spas and tubs.
