CLEANING CARTRIDGE
The cartridge filter element can be cleaned by washing inside and out with a garden hose. (The cartridge is easier to clean
when dry.) After hosing the cartridge, for best results, allow cartridge to dry and carefully brush pleated surface areas to
remove fine particles. Do not pressure wash, as it can damage the filter element.
To remove materials such as suntan and body oils from the cartridge pleats, soak the element in a solution of filter element
cleaner (various brands available at pool dealer). Follow manufacturer’s directions for use and allow an hour for soaking.
Hose thoroughly before reinstalling in filter.
CAUTION: Be sure to use a plastic container and take extreme care when handling cleaning
agents as they can be harmful to eyes, skin and clothing. After cleaning flush with water.
NON-CHLORINE POOLS
Cartridges used in pools or spas that use Baquacil® Sanitizer or other similar non-chlorine based products must be cleaned
more frequently than when used in pools that utilize a chlorine system. Consult manufacturer’s instructions for frequency,
instructions, and chemicals required for cleaning elements in these types of systems. Baquacil® is not compatible with
chlorine, bromine, any copper based chemical or non-chlorine shock.
A spare cartridge filter element is an excellent investment. It provides convenience and ensures that your filter will always
be ready to operate at peak efficiency.
VACUUMING
Vacuuming can be performed directly into the filter whenever needed. Clean cartridge after vacuuming, if required.
WINTERIZING (Filter)
In areas where sub-freezing temperatures can be expected, the filter should be drained and/or removed from it’s operating
location and stored indoors. Remove and clean cartridge. Reinstall cartridge in filter tank. Fully tighten lock ring when
storing.
SERVICE AND REPAIRS
Consult your local authorized Hayward dealer or service center. No returns may be made directly to the factory without the
expressed written authorization of Hayward Pool Products.
