Inside a sand filter, the center pipe and lateral assembly play a critical role in distributing water through the media bed and returning filtered water back to the system. This Hayward center pipe assembly with laterals is made for compatible S245T sand filter applications where the internal assembly has cracked, worn, or become damaged.
Replacing the assembly can help correct symptoms such as sand returning to the pool, poor filtration, or internal damage discovered during sand changes. It is a smart repair part for keeping a Hayward sand filter working efficiently without replacing the complete filter tank.
