need new laterals for Sta Rite Cristal Flo T210WF sand filter

[flyweed]

Hey all, Last fall before closing our AGP, I notice that even after I cleaned our pool, a few hours later there would be A LOT of sand downstream of the return along the bottom edge of our pool. I would assume it's most likely a lateral or two, or more. Since this filter was used when I bought it, and moved it (full of sand) and installed it at my house....the laterals were not treated very well.

Anyway, can anyone point me to the CORRECT laterals I need for this filter: Sta-Rite Cristal Flo T-210WF? Also looking for best/lowest prices.

Thanks for any help

Dan

You could try contacting a parts vendor. Swimming Pool Supplies - Pool Parts - INYOPools.com has a pretty good support team and might be able to point you to a part. I checked their website and could not find the T-210WF. When I searched for it, this was the result: Sta-Rite Waterford System Parts - INYOPools.com

You may have to dissemble and measure up the laterals to verify parts with a vendor. Sta-Rite is now part of Pentair and the Sta-Rite part of the website stinks...

Thanks for the input. I have located the correct laterals...NOW......do I need them or not? I pulled my riser and laterals OUT of my filter today..I was fully expecting to see at least one or more broken. BUT...everything looks fine. why am I seeing so much sand on the bottom of my pool? I don't live in a sandy area, and my pool is surrounded by tree's that minimized blowing into the pool. Here area 3 pics I took of my laterals. Should I replace them anyway????? Any thoughts would be great.
