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.
