SOURCE: is the Hayward s210 pro series 21" top mount above

Thank you for posting your question here on Fixya.com.


32' round by how deep? Flow rate is how you size a filter so with total gallons you can calculate how many per minute will add up to the whole pool being turned over is 6-8 hours. The pump and filter are then sized for that required flow...Assuming the pool is an above ground ~4' average depth then total gallons would be about 24,000 gallons. For an 8 hour turnover you would need about 50 gallons per minute. The 210T, T for top mount, is designed to handle up to 44 gallons per minute and turn over a 21,000 gallon pool in 8 hours or a 26,000 gallon pool in 10.

What that basically means is that using a 210 on a pool 32 x 4 would be pushing it. It will work but you will end up backwashing more frequently which raises the overall cost of running the pool. If it is not to late a 24" filter would be better; especially if you have periods of time in your pool season where heavy amounts of debris such as pollen get into the water. A 21" filter won't handle any over a normal filtration load.

How do I remove elbo/check valve on ec65. Seems to be really stuck on.

the main drain should be on suction side of pool system (unless it was converted to be a return for safety reasons) since it is on the suction side of system, it is impossible to have DE entering pool at this point.

Water leaking out the top

Here is a copy of the users manual for these pool filters. It has detailed illustrations about how the filter should be put together.

I bought my above ground swimming pool package in 1990. My Hayward sand filter is a top mount and has a lateral assembly w/center pipe in side of it. The pipe is broken at the top and I need to purchase a...

I believe that the owners manual has a parts listing to help you distinguish the part that you will need to buy. However, if your pool filter was purchased in 1990, you are probably going to need a new filter. Most do not last over 20 years.

Can't get my hayward filter lid off. It turns a little bit, then pops and won't come off....it's stuck. How can I get it off?

Sounds like it is stripped. Hope it is the cap and not the part the filter is in. If you are very careful you may get the top off by taking 2 items you can pry with. Either screwdrivers or something similar. Have another person help if there is room. Place one of the pry items under the edge of the cap and put a little upward pressure on it. Have another person do the same thing on the opposite side. Now, carefully start to work the top off. Allow yourself time and patience. It will probably turn with difficulty but keep going. I assume it is plastic and maybe when you take the top off you will cut some new threads. They may allow you to use the same top or not, good luck...Lee
