I just installed my new Hayward W3DE6020 DE filter. I would like to keep it covered from the elements. I searched online for a cover for it but only found one webpage and it looked a little flakey so I am hesitant. Anyone know where and even if these covers are sold? TIA

The guy at the supply house where I buy my equipment told me that the old all rubber only O ring can be used in place of this new very expensive metal reinforced O ring and it will work just fine. Anyone have any info on whether this is true or not? TIA

I recently installed a new O ring on my Hayward DE6020 filter. In doing so I thoroughly cleaned the O ring mating surfaces on the upper and lower housing to ensure that no debris was present prior to re-assembling. Although I wiped with a dry cloth those surfaces there was still some Magic...

I have a Hayward DE6020 Filter that was installed when the pool was put in in 2004. The filter works great and there are no leaks. The filter has been covered with sunshade material that is used to screen out the sun and UV rays since 2009. I can get a good deal on a brand new exact...

I am wondering what if any negatives there would be to going from the DE6020 filter to the DE7220 other than it would require more media on cleanings and the grids would cost a little more than with the DE6020.

I am tired of redoing my expansion gap that runs around the perimeter of my pool. I came across this and was wondering if this would be a better alternative to the goopy stuff...

I have a portable patio heater that runs off a propane bottle. I am wondering if I would be able to run this patio heater adjacent to my pool equipment to keep it from freezing in the event the power goes off and it is below freezing. Thoughts on this idea? TIA

I recently switched from DE to Fiber Clear DE filter media. WOW, I love this stuff. Water is sooooo much cleaner. I have never had this sparkling crystal clear waster before. Pressure rise was not significant after switching for the first time. I made sure my grids were really clean and the...

I have been considering this pump for my pool. https://www.hayward-pool.com/shop/en/pools/tristar-xe-i-trixe I currently have a single speed Tristar. The programming of the XE seems a bit strange and not straight forward or user friendly. TIA

My water was crystal clear. FC 12 PH 8.7 TA 113 CH 209 CYA 54 Phosphates 1143 I added some PoolPerfect PhosFree and now my water is milky white. What happened and what should I do to clear it up? TIA

The pump has a pressure gauge on it. With a new filter cleaning the DE 6020 filter showed around 20 psi which is normal. The Tristar Hayward pump has a gauge on it as well and just after cleaning the filter the pump pressure showed around 23 psi. After a few weeks of running I checked the...

It was time to clean my Hayward DE6020 filter. Prior to cleaning the filter everything was running fine and the water was crystal clear. I cleaned the filter and added DE to the strainer as I always do with the pump running. The water turned cloudy and I noticed DE around my bubblers so I...

My 18 year old Hayward Northstar pump housing has cracked and the twist couplers have a few tabs broken off so its time to get it replaced. I tried using the strongest JB weld but I need a reliable unit so therefore I am going to replace it but I don't know what to replace it with. My pump is...
