Hayward StarClear 50 Sq Ft Cartridge Pool Filter W3C500

The Hayward StarClear cartridge filter delivers crystal-clear water with extra cleaning capacity to suit pools and spas of all types and sizes, making it a strong choice for both replacement and new installations. A single locking knob secures the head to the tank with no bolts or clamps, and the durable filter head rotates so you can position the pressure gauge and manual air relief where they are easiest to reach. The injection-molded tank gives dependable, corrosion-free performance, while an extra-large cartridge element with a precision-engineered core adds strength and maximizes flow. An elevated filtered-water collector and debris sump helps prevent heavy debris from bypassing back into the pool when you remove the cartridge for cleaning. Multiple connection options and a 1/2 inch drain for fast draining round out the design.
