Installation & Compatibility Notes
Before installation, shut off the pool pump and relieve all system pressure. Remove the filter lid, clean the seating surfaces thoroughly, and remove the old O-ring. Install the SX200Z6 O-ring in the tank lid groove or sealing surface, ensuring it sits flat and free of twists. Re-assemble the tank lid, restore circulation and check for proper operation with no leaks or pressure loss.
Maintenance Tips
- Inspect the O-ring at each seasonal service for signs of cracking, flattening or chemical damage—replace if any defects are visible.
- If you observe water seeping around the lid or the filter system loses pressure unexpectedly, the O-ring seal is a likely culprit.
- Keep spare O-rings in your parts inventory to enable quick turnaround when servicing filter tanks in use or during renovation work.
Why Choose This O-Ring?
For pool service professionals, equipment dealers and homeowners performing maintenance, the Hayward SX200Z6 seal offers an effective, targeted solution to restore filter tank integrity. Replacing just the seal helps avoid full tank replacement, supports clearer water and safer operation.
