Product details
The Hayward W530 is the large leaf and debris canister, an in line trap that sits between the cleaner and the filter system and takes the coarse debris out of the water first.
Why it saves you work
Without a canister, every leaf a cleaner picks up ends up in the pump basket or against the filter. In leaf season that means pulling the pump lid several times a week and stripping the filter far more often than the media actually needs. The canister moves all of that to one easy open lid and one large basket.
Flow and visibility
The canister is designed so water bypasses the collected debris rather than being forced through it, which keeps proper flow going to the pump as the basket loads up. The Lexan body is see through, so a glance tells you whether it is time to empty it. The extra large basket or bag holds a real load between cleanings.
Hayward builds these for the pool professional, and the same rugged construction is what makes them worth having on a home pool that drops a lot of leaves.
