Product Overview
The Jandy R0488300 Drain Screen Assembly is a vital maintenance item for sand-filter systems in the JS series. During filter cleaning or backwash cycles, the drain screen prevents sand, silica, or filter media from escaping when the drain plug is removed. An intact screen preserves filtration media investment and streamlines service routines.

Given that pool filters are exposed to heavy chemical loads, the screen assembly must maintain structural integrity and dimensional accuracy. This OEM replacement ensures proper fit and sealing with the filter’s drain side port, aligning with factory tolerance and performance expectations. For pool service professionals or DIY technicians managing JS60-SM or JS100-SM filters, installing the R0488300 restores OEM drainage capability and reduces the risk of media loss or operational disruption.
