Hayward SwimClear Cxx30 vs. Cxx25

[Diver]

What is the difference between these two model lines? For example SwimClear C4030 and C4025? The seem to have identical dimensions, filtering surface and so on. Is one of them newer version of another?

The only difference that I could spot is in flow/head graphs (Cxx25 left, Cxx30 right). Looks like Cxx25 is less restrictive.

Looks like there are some internal differences in the manifolds if you look at the part break down in the 2 manuals.

The 25 appear to have the flow exit the cartridges on the bottom, but the 30 has the water exit from the top of the cartridges.

Hayward confirmed that the only significant difference is that new version (Cxx30) has manifold on top vs on the bottom for Cxx25.
