A. FEATURES
New glass reinforced, non-corrosive PermaGlassXL filter tank will
provide years of trouble-free operation.
Easy-Lok™ ring design allows quick access to all internal
components.
Unique safety latch prevents unwanted entry into the tank.
Self-venting design automatically purges any air present in the
system.
B. SYSTEM LOCATION
Though the filter is designed for outdoor use, it is advisable to
protect electrical components from the weather. Select a
well-drained area, one that will not flood when it rains.
For best pump performance, place the system below the swimming
pool water line.
Set the filter and pump on firm, level ground. Position the tank for
easy access to the internals, and pressure gauge, with at least
24”/610 mm (C85075XES) or 27”/686 mm (C125080X5S) of top
clearance. Position the filter so that it may drain by gravity.
C. PLUMBING
Use 1-1/4” or 1-1/2” I.D. flexible plastic pipe, or hose, joined with
insert fittings and stainless steel clamps. If rigid PVC is used, be
sure to provide unions for easy servicing.
All plumbing connections on the ASL filter are 1-1/2” N.P.T. When
making connections, use plastic male-end adapters. Apply three
turns of Teflon tape or plastic pipe sealant to the male threads.
Screw the fitting into the threads hand tight; then, using a wrench,
tighten one more full turn if necessary. Adapters have varying
tolerances and overtightening with a wrench may only cause
damage to the filter.
Ball-type valves are recommended where needed. (See Fig. 1)
Securely hand tighten the union nut between the filter and pump.
Connect the pool suction plumbing between the skimmer, pool
outlet, and the pump.
Connect the pool return (inlet) plumbing.
A drain plug is furnished with each filter and is all that is needed
for complete filter draining. A manual air vent valve is furnished to
aid in the bleeding of unwanted air when starting or draining the
filter.
All electrical connections should be made in accordance with local
codes.
Refer to pump instruction book for pump information.
NOTE: ANSI/NSPI-4 Article V, standard for above-ground and
on-ground pools, advises that components such as the filtration
system, pumps and heater be positioned so as to prevent their
being used as a means of access to the pool by young children.

H. CLEANING/REPLACING CARTRIDGE ELEMENT
Superchlorinate the pool water by adding unstabilized granular
or liquid chlorine. Stabilized forms of chlorine are recommended
for normal use after the initial clean-up of the water. Follow
chemical manufacturer’s recommendations for superchlorination
and daily use.
Filtration starts as soon as flow is steady through the filter.
Clean cartridge when pressure rises 7-10 psi (.49-.69 BAR) from
starting pressure.
CAUTION: All suction and discharge valves must be open
before operating the filter system. Failure to do so could cause
severe personal injury and/or property damage.
Follow steps 1-4 in cleaning.
Depress safety latch and
unscrew in a counterclockwise
direction.
Lift out filter element and clean
as instructed in PREVENTATIVE
MAINTENANCE SECTION.
Clean debris from bottom tank.
Replace element evenly on the collector hub in bottom
of the filter body.
Place Easy-Lok lid evenly on filter body and turn clockwise
until the notch on the locking ring engages securely to the
safety latch directly over the drain. (see Fig. 2)
Proceed as in STARTING THE FILTER.

K. VACUUMING
Vacuuming can be performed directly into the filter whenever needed.
For fastest results, clean the filter before and after each vacuuming
period. For heavy spring clean-ups, we recommend using a Hayward
SPO727 diverter valve to bypass the filter and accelerate the clean-up
process. Consult your local Hayward dealer for a detailed explanation.
L. WINTERIZING
In areas where sub-freezing temperatures can be expected, the filter
should be drained and/or removed from its operating location and stored
indoors. Clean the element at the end of the pool season by using your
garden hose with a high pressure nozzle or the Hayward EC2024
Jet-Action Cleaning Wand. You will then be prepared to enjoy your pool
the next spring.
Consult your local authorized Hayward dealer or service center. No
returns may be made directly to the factory without the expressed
written authorization of Hayward Pool Products, Inc.
Algae is a form of plant life which can vary in size from a few
thousandths of an inch to the size of a small tree. Of the many forms of
algae, those most frequently found in swimming pool water are
microscopic in size and green in color.
Algae readily grows in sunlight and can, under favorable conditions,
quickly overgrow a swimming pool turning it completely green in just a
few hours. On the other hand, swimming pool water can be kept
unfavorable to algae growth simply by maintaining a free chlorine
level of at least 1.0 ppm in the water at all times. The chlorine level
should be checked at least once a day using a suitable test kit.
If an algae condition develops and the pool water “blooms” green,
superchlorination of the pool will be necessary to clear it. Add
unstabilized granular chlorine, or liquid chlorine. Follow chemical
manufacturer’s recommendation for superchlorination. The algae will
quickly become inactive and can then be removed by the filter. Live
algae, on the other hand, multiplies so fast that the filter cannot keep
up with its growth rate.
When correctly used, commercial algaecides are effective against
algae, though algaecides should be used in conjunction with, and not as
a substitute for, regular chlorination or superchlorination.
Maintaining a free chlorine level of at least 1.0 ppm in the pool water
at all times is the most effective way to prevent algae growth in
swimming pools.
