The Hayward SwimClear Multi-Element Cartridge Filter (C5030) is a high-capacity residential filter with 525 sq ft of effective filtration area for large pools. Four cartridge elements capture dirt, leaves and oils while maintaining steady flow. Because it never needs backwashing, it conserves water and avoids discharging treated pool water.
