Your Hayward Pro Series high-rate sand filter is a high
performance, totally corrosion-proof filter that blends
superior flow characteristics and features with ease of
operation. It represents the very latest in high-rate sand
filter technology. It is virtually foolproof in design and
operation and when installed, operated and maintained
according to instructions, your filter will produce clear,
sparkling water with only the least attention and care.
HOW IT WORKS
Your filter uses special filter sand to remove dirt particles
from pool water. The filter sand is loaded into the filter tank
and functions as the permanent dirt removing media. The
pool water, which contains suspended dirt particles, is
pumped through your piping system and is automatically
directed by the patented filter control valve to the top of the
filter tank. As the pool water is pumped through the filter
sand, dirt particles are trapped by the sand bed, and filtered
out. The cleaned pool water is returned from the bottom of
the filter tank, through the control valve and back to the pool
through the piping system. This entire sequence is
continuous and automatic and provides for total recirculation
of pool water through your filter and piping system.
After a period of time, the accumulated dirt in the filter
causes a resistance to flow, and the flow diminishes. This
means it is time to clean (backwash) your filter. With the
control valve in the backwash position, the water flow is
automatically reversed through the filter so that it is directed
to the bottom of the tank, up through the sand, flushing the
previously trapped dirt and debris out the waste line. Once
the filter is backwashed (cleaned) of dirt, the control valve is
manually resequenced to Rinse, and then Filter, to resume
normal filtering.
INSTALLATION
Only simple tools (screwdriver and wrenches), plus pipe
sealant for plastic adapters, are required to install and/or
service the filter.
The filter system should be installed, not more than 6
feet above pool water level, on a
level concrete slab,
very firm ground, or equivalent, as recommended by
your pool dealer. Position the filter so that the piping
connections, control valve and winter drain are
convenient and accessible for operation, service and
winterizing.
Assemble filter control valve to filter. Align the two (2)
valve pipe connections, with O-rings in place, with the
two openings in the side of the filter tank and press in
firmly. Secure the assembly to the tank connections with
the two bulkhead locknuts.
Do not overtighten.
