The Hayward 24" Swim Pro sand filter is designed for medium to large in-ground pools, typically up to 40,000 gallons (approximately 151,000 liters). Its robust size and flow capacity make it ideal for larger filtration demands while keeping water clean and clear.
Unlike some other Hayward models (like the Pro Series), the Swim Pro is engineered for higher flow rates and optimized hydraulic efficiency, which helps it maintain water clarity with heavier usage. It also features a larger tank and superior internal flow path design that reduces turbulence and improves sand bed performance. While many Hayward sand filters focus on reliability and low maintenance, the Swim Pro emphasizes maximum flow capacity and performance, especially for larger pumps and high-circulation systems.
The included 6-way valve gives you quick access to essential functions: Filter - normal filtration mode Backwash - cleans the sand media Rinse - clears lines after backwashing Recirculate - bypasses the sand bed for quick water movement Waste - drains water directly out of the system Closed - shuts all flow for service This level of control simplifies maintenance and keeps your system operating at peak efficiency.
Yes, the Swim Pro is compatible with most standard in-ground pool pumps that use1.5" and 2" plumbing connections. Its higher flow rating pairs especially well with more powerful pumps while maintaining effective filtration. It works with vinyl, fiberglass, and concrete pools.
