The laterals thread into it and it connects to the standpipe, which makes it the single point every drop of filtered water passes through on its way out of the tank. Its condition decides whether water is drawn evenly through the sand bed or takes a shortcut.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhen it needs replacing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSand coming back into the pool is the usual sign that something in the underdrain has failed. Cracks in the hub body, damaged threads and broken lateral seats all let water bypass the media and carry sand with it. With the tank already open for sand replacement, the hub and laterals are worth inspecting closely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMatch the model\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe T-BP range uses a different hub for each filter size. This one is the T-240BP-1 part, so confirm the model on your tank label before ordering rather than going by tank appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sta-Rite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48627695124692,"sku":"STA-051-2491","price":139.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_06fa4bb5-6d17-4a38-a80d-bad1d916a7b9.jpg?v=1788726692","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/collector-hub-assembly-t-240bp-1","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
