Preventative Maintenance

Cleaning Cartridge Filter
NOTICE: Clean the cartridge when filter canister pressure reaches 5-7 PSI above the initial system or new cartridge
starting pressure.
1. Remove the cartridge element from the filter housing following the directions in the "Cleaning/Removing Cartridge
Element" section above.
2. DO NOT Pressure wash. Wash the cartridge element inside and out with the Hayward Jet-action Cleaning Wand
(EC2024) or a garden hose. Work from top-down, holding the nozzle at a 45-degree angle. All dirt and debris may
not be removed with hosing. Brush pleated surface areas and allow to dry.
Vacuuming
Vacuuming can be performed directly into the filter whenever needed. For fastest results, clean the filter before and
after each vacuuming. For heavy spring clean ups, we recommend using a Hayward SP0727 diverter valve to bypass
the filter and accelerate the clean up process. Consult your local Hayward dealer for a detailed explanation.
Winterization
In areas where sub-freezing temperatures can be expected, the filter should be drained and/or removed from its
operating location and stored indoors. Clean the cartridge element at the end of the pool season by using the
Hayward Jet-action Cleaning Wand (EC2024) or a garden hose. (See "Cleaning Cartridge Filter" instructions in this
manual).
