Is the hayward star clear 751 filter good for a 18x36 inground pool around 22000 gal

Lynda, I replaced a DT filter with this cartridge filter. I noticed that the water in my 16x32 pool wasn't as clear at first. I read on line that you can add DT to the cartridge filter. Since I had some diatomaceous earth left over from my old filter, I added one scoop to the new filter through the skimmer, and in about two hours the water became crystal clear. The cartridge is just more porous than the DT. With a little help, it works great. Plus, it is so easy to deal with. Just take the top off the filter, and rinse the cartridge. It takes just a few minutes. I recommend it.

I have roughly a 18000 gallon pool and it handles it just fine. The important thing is to make sure you are using a matched pump. I have a 1-1/2hp pump.

I use mine to polish water pre-filtered by a sand filter. Its close to a 25,000 gal pool but the canister is not stand alone. It's been a great improvement over the sand filter alone and keeps the water crystal clear. This doesn't exactly answer your question but I thought it might be at least a little helpful.

So what is your question. I am no expert on pool filters. I have had this filter since I bought my first pool, so my experience lies with this brand only. I know others who have the 30 and 40 series versions. This filter compared to those others is top of line. I am extremely happy I have and am using this filter. I have a 24 ft round - 52 " wall pool and this filter is more than adaquate to handle the size of my pool. I dont know what your issue is with the clamp on top, but as long as you follow the directions for tightening the band up, you should be fine. Tip- I use a rachet set with a deep bit to loosing and tighten the clamp. Open end adjustible wrenches will strip the band belt bolt.

If you cant find your hayward de3600 on the list with all the filter models these grids would fit , then it most likely wont fit since these grids are 48 inches and yours is probably only 36 in. I would go to a specialized pool store and ask them what grids would fit your hayward de3600 and then go home and order it through amazon, at least you will know for sure they will fit. I hope it helps

This one is the one you need. 24". This Hayward was flawless in its first year of service. Our pool is about 27,500 gallons and it filtered it with no problem. We have a Hayward Matrix pump doing the work. If you do not have a quality pump now, maybe buying both now is your best option for trouble free years ofService. Also, we have found just using normal pool sand in the filter does a better job than the expensive kind. LocalPool shop says to go 5 years with the normal pool sand if you backwash regularly and chemicals are adequate. Good Luck!!!!

Kevin, I can't say with any authority what is "the best" filter out there, but I can tell you that I have been simply thrilled by the performance of my Hayward DE4820 Pro-Grid. I went with the multi-position, SP0710XR50 Vari-Flo valve and that has made cleaning (backwashing) the filter grid super easy. My pool is about 32,000 gallons and this system can (and has) completely fitered and clarified the entire volume in about 8 hours. I did all the plumbing myself and even that was relatively straightforward and easy. I hope that helps.

You maybe be able to step down one size. I have this same model (C3030) on a 14,000 gal Lazy-L in ground pool and it does an EXCELLENT job. Pressure change didn't indicate it needing a cleaning during the first season (although I cleaned it at the end of the season). Of course, that would depend on your particular location / pool usage / etc. It is a great filter, easy to service, install, etc. I'm very pleased that I purchased it. My previous filter was a 300 lb sand filter and there is no comparison between the two

I like the Pentair very much. I bought it to replace an existing Pentair that was 18 years old. I have no experience with the Hayward filter.

Probably a little overkill, but will work. I have an 11000 gallon pool and it creates a pretty good current when it's running. To get the exact size you need, you have to calculate how much water a minute it can move, compared to the recommendations for your size pool. I just looked at the Hayward pools website for that info.

This Sand Filter is for an Above Ground Pool Only 18 Ft Diameter or Smaller

Here is a link to calculate the size filter you need. Lot of variables to consider.I would go larger than the C3030.http://www.wikihow.com/Select-the-Correct-Filter-Size-for-Your-Swimming-Pool

If your pump is that powerful you may want to get a larger filter. It will work but probably not as well as you need it to. Filter size is typically determined by the size of the pool (In gallons). If your pool is 15,000 gallons or smaller you can use the C751. Since you have a 2hp pump I'm guessing the pool is larger.

I looked up your model on the web. Seems like to be on the safe side, you better find your model number and purchase it. Or perhaps contact Hayward customer service and see what they recommend. There appears to be a variety of these depending on the filter. Good luck!

It could be, but depending on use of pool it may make a difference. I have a 16x32 in-ground Grecian about 19-20K gallons and it did outstanding. I switched from DE to this one after 20 years of using DE. I got sick of replacing the grids on the inside of filter every 3-5 years, they seam to have gotten cheaper made of the the years and started breaking very easy. Anyhow I purchased this one and i love it, no more backwashing and filters are easy to clean when needed. So going back to your question, I would go for it and you will probably have more filter than you need BUT you should have less filter cartridge cleanings. I had to do 2 last year for a pool season that lasts 3-4 months It could be, but depending on use of pool it may make a difference.

I have this filter on a 16x34 unground pool, so it should be more than enough.

We bought this and we have a 18x52 above ground pool and it's more than powerful enough. It's a great filter/pump.
