Product Overview
The Waterway 319-1430 CHAMPS-120 Basket is an essential maintenance component for maintaining clean and efficient operation of your pool pump system. As debris accumulates in the skimmer and suction line, this basket acts as the first line of defense, trapping particles before they can cause blockages or damage to the impeller. When baskets become cracked or misshaped, debris may bypass the filter, resulting in reduced suction and increased strain on the pump motor.

Manufactured from high-strength, UV-stabilized plastic, the 319-1430 is built to handle the tough conditions of chlorinated or saltwater pools. Its OEM design ensures exact compatibility with Waterway CHAMPS-120 pump housings, providing a snug fit that maintains proper hydraulic balance and sealing integrity. The open-grid design allows efficient water flow while holding large volumes of debris, reducing maintenance frequency.

Easy to install and remove, this basket supports quick cleaning and replacement during regular servicing. For pool professionals and homeowners alike, the Waterway 319-1430 offers a dependable and cost-effective solution for preserving system performance and extending pump longevity.
