Product Description

Hayward is updating these filters (a slight design change to the lid and color changes to the exterior parts).  The one you receive may appear different from the one in the image.

Perflex Extended-Cycle D.E. filters clean pools fast, removing particles as small as one micron the first time through. Its patented Flex-Tube™ design gives longer cycles between cleaning because the same D.E. filter powder is used over and over. Plus, Perflex cleans without backwashing, saving hundreds of gallons of treated pool water. An exceptional value as a replacement filter or for new pool installations. For sparkling, clean pools, step up to Perflex.

Applications:

  • In-ground pools of all types and sizes

Features:

  • Exclusive bump handle activates the mechanism causing the Flex-Tubes to instantly and uniformly clean themselves of dirt and filter powder
  • Self-venting design automatically expels any air that may be present in the system
  • Proven, patented Flex-Tube filter elements efficiently reuse the filter powder and dirt mixture forming a fresh filtering surface
  • Combination pressure gauge and threaded inspection/service port is easy to read and remove when filter needs cleaning
  • Heavy-duty filter tank injection-molded of high-strength Duralon™ for dependable, corrosion-free performance
  • Integral check valve prevents system backflow whenever pump is off

The manual says that a diverter valve can be installed for vacuuming to waste during heavy spring clean up or pulling rain water out of the pool. Where would it be installed? Do you sell this valve?

Yes we do carry this diverter valve which you may view or purchase through this link http://www.inyopools.com/Products/07501352023400.htm This valve has 3 ports on it, the valve would screw into the disharge side of your pump and you can have the handle turned so the return water goes through your filter or you can turn the valve in the opposite direction so the dirty water goes to waste and bypasses your filter, this is very helpful when vacuuming or for heavy spring clean up.

Why buy a more expensive Hayward de pool Filter if this one says in ground all types all sizes EC40a or ex 50a
 Reply

Warren, You would have to match the filter size with your pump GPM. That's how you determine what size filter to get, the bigger the filter the better.

Ec40a or ec75a why buy the 75a when the 40 a days all in ground pools all sizes?
 Reply

Warren, 20sq ft of filtration verses 40sq ft of filtration, EC75A offers more filtration than the EC40A.
