Product Overview
The Hayward SX200H Sand Filter Bottom Drain Screen is an important internal safeguard used at the drain opening of select sand filter systems. During draining or winterization, an unprotected drain port can allow sand media or debris to escape the tank, potentially clogging plumbing or damaging downstream components. The drain screen helps prevent these issues by blocking media while allowing water to flow out in a controlled manner.
Over time, drain screens can become damaged, clogged, or lost during servicing. Replacing the screen with the SX200H helps restore proper drain protection and supports safe, efficient maintenance procedures. This replacement component is commonly used during filter servicing or drain repairs to maintain dependable sand filter operation and protect system components.
