Help finding Model for Sand Filter

[b0ob0o225]

Hello, so I want to change the sand in my filter but the previous owner took the labels off so I dont know what model is my filter, all I know its Hayward. I measured the height from the bottom to the top of the valve and its 43 inches, also measured the neck of the filter and its 27 inches. Is there any other ways I can figure out what model this filter is. Thank you

Welcome to TFP! There might be a part or model number stamped somewhere on the body. Maybe around the collar or down low around the base. But if you still can't find it, post a pic. We a few people with good eyes who should be able to help. Worse case scenario, even if we didn't know the exact model (which I doubt) you'll add enough sand to go about 2/3 the way up the inside of the vessel. But let us see what you have there first.

Post a picture of the filter and measure the diameter. We'll be able to figure it out from that.

I attached 2 pictures but I dont know why they arent popping up. The circumference is 76/77 inches ... the height is 42 inches

Theres nothing I tried looking all over - i measured the height at 42inchs and the circumference at 76/77 inches ... this my 1st time owning a pool so im not trying to do the change myself, im trying to get someone but they asked for the model number so they know how much sand they need. I tried attaching 2 pictures but its saying they are too large

I had to take screenshots of the pictures to make them smaller

Looking at a specs chart HERE, your measurements point to the Hayward S244T series.

Awesome, thank you so much

circumference at 76/77 inches

77/π = 24.5" diameter.

Should be 300 lbs of sand.
