Hayward Star Clear C500 Replacement Cartridge

Replace your old cartridge with the cartridge for the Star Clear C500 filter. Designed to perfectly fit your Hayward tank, this high-density filter removes the finest particles thanks to its 20-micron precision. Where a traditional sand filter allows micro-debris to pass through, C500 technology ensures total clarity and healthy water throughout the season.

Advantages of the Star Clear C500 cartridge

• High-precision filtration: captures particles invisible to the naked eye (dust, pollen, organic residues) for healthy water.
• Robust design: made of reinforced polyester, it resists chemicals and intensive use.
• Equipment protection: by effectively retaining debris, it prevents clogging of your pump and extends the life of your equipment.
• Total compatibility: perfectly adapts to Hayward Star Clear filter bodies.

The Importance of Good Pool Filtration

Pool filter cartridges play a central role in maintaining your pool's water. They ensure:

• Water purity: by eliminating impurities and contaminants, they guarantee clear and healthy water.
• Protection of your equipment: by preventing debris from circulating in the system, they extend the lifespan of your pump and other installations.
• Simplified maintenance: effective filtration reduces the effort required to clean and maintain the pool.

How to replace your C500 cartridge?

1. Preparation: stop the pump and close the isolation valves.
2. Drainage: open the air bleed and the drain to evacuate water from the filter.
3. Opening: unscrew the top handle and remove the cover.
4. Cleaning/Replacement: remove the cartridge. Clean it with a water jet or replace it if it shows signs of wear.
