Review: I’m very happy I bought this to replace my Hayward sand filter. Installation took some planning but was pretty easy. My pool looked better after just a few hours run time. If you go with the pipe threaded models..be sure that your threaded fittings don’t have seams at the threads. Mine did and they caused leaks. Also note that the threads in the filter are VERY deep. Be sure to use 3 turns of thread tape like the instructions say to compensate. I also used Rectorseal T plus 2 thread sealant which worked GREAT. I placed mine up on cinder blocks to help it drain and make the plumbing easier. Someone recommended using a bucket to cover the unit, so I took a used and rinsed chlorine tablet bucket and cut out a hole to see the gauge and then added plastic sheeting to keep the sun off. I’m going to buy a second filter to make change outs easier. Overall I’m very happy with this unit. Review: Bought this to replace same that was 10+ yrs old. After 10+ yrs of FL sun it developed a leak. Best Price was on desertcart by far & comes with filter (some others did not). Used for in ground pool. Very good product that performs as advertised & it was delivered sooner than expected. Use to have a DE filter but this one does just as good of a job & it is much easier to maintain. It was delivered with a cracked pressure gage but customer service was great and shipped another one that I received in a couple of days. I would suggest they don’t ship it with the pressure gage installed which should solve that issue. ## Features - The Hayward StarClear Plus 120-Square-Foot Pool Filter features an extra-large, single-element cartridge with new precision-engineered core and gasketed molded end caps for extra strength and maximum flow - Single-locking knob securely fastens filter head to filter tank without clamps or bolts - Single piece injection-molded base and body provides added strength for reliable, corrosion-free performance - Rotatable filter head provides easy access to cartridge element, gauge and manual air relief valve - 1½" or 2" FIP or 2" SKT connections offer plumbing versatility ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07SS48C9S | | Batteries Included? | No | | Brand | Hayward | | Color | Gray | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (916) | | Date First Available | 2 July 2019 | | Height | 13.5 inches | | Item model number | W3C12002 | | Length | 38 inches | | Manufacturer | Hayward | | Power Source | Hydraulic Powered | | Product Dimensions | 35.05 x 35.05 x 95.76 cm; 13.61 kg | | Size | 120 Square Foot (W3C12002) | | Style | In Ground | | Width | 13.5 inches | ## Images ![Hayward SwimClear Plus Cartridge Pool Filter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61M6tmSHiKL.jpg) ![Hayward SwimClear Plus Cartridge Pool Filter - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61g-J63jQ1L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by B***B on 29 April 2018* I’m very happy I bought this to replace my Hayward sand filter.
