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. 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 pump and pump mounting base, No.
S160TPAK1 or S160TPAK3 (if supplied) to the filter
according to instructions packed with the base.
