Quick overview
- Model S244S The 24 in. tank in the Hayward Pro Series side mount sand filter line.
- Valve included Comes with the 1.5 in. side mount valve, so the filter and its valve arrive together.
- Side mount The valve mounts on the side of the tank rather than on top, which keeps the overall height down at the pad.
- 24 in. tank Tank diameter is 24 in., the figure to match when you are replacing an existing filter.
- Genuine Hayward Hayward part S244S from the Pro Series range.
- Sand filtration A sand filter traps debris in its media bed and is cleaned by backwashing rather than by pulling and hosing a cartridge.

Product details
The Hayward S244S is the 24 in. tank in the Pro Series side mount sand filter line, supplied with the 1.5 in. side mount valve.
Side mount
The valve bolts to the side of the tank rather than the top. That keeps the filter shorter overall, which matters on a pad where there is a roof, a fence or a wall close above the equipment.
Living with a sand filter
Sand filters hold their media in the tank and trap debris as water passes through the bed. Cleaning is done by turning the valve to backwash and letting the reversed flow carry the dirt out to waste, so there is no cartridge to pull and hose down. The media itself lasts for years before it needs changing.
