Product details
The Hayward EC1161PAK is the low profile platform base, supplied with its screws. It is the genuine Hayward part and is listed among the cartridge filter parts.
Why the base matters
The base carries a filter tank that is full of water whenever the system runs, and it sits on the ground taking sun, freeze and whatever runs across the pad. When it cracks or the mounting points break out, the tank leans and every union and pipe joint above it takes the load instead.
Before you order
This is the low profile version. Look at the base under your own filter and compare, because base height affects how the tank meets the existing plumbing. When you fit it, drain the tank and support it rather than working under a full one.
