Hayward ProGrid 48 Sq. Ft. Filter Element Cluster Assembly | DEX4800DC
The ultimate, hassle-free replacement solution designed to completely overhaul the internal filtration of your large-capacity D.E. pool filter. The Hayward DEX4800DC is a genuine OEM complete Filter Element Cluster Assembly engineered specifically for Hayward ProGrid DE4820 and legacy Micro-Clear 48 square foot filters. Instead of painfully piecing together individual replacement grids, this unit comes 100% factory pre-assembled, allowing you to simply drop it into your filter tank and instantly restore your pool's water clarity to like-new standards.
By replacing your entire aging grid pack with this complete assembly, you immediately regain 48 square feet of premium Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.) filtration surface area. It effortlessly captures microscopic dirt, algae, and debris down to an incredibly fine 1 to 3 microns, ensuring your backyard oasis remains brilliantly clear and perfectly safe for heavy swimmer usage all season long.
Features
Complete, Drop-In Assembly: Eliminate the frustrating, multi-hour headache of trying to perfectly align eight individual loose grids into a top manifold and bottom spreader plate simultaneously. This entire 48 sq. ft. cluster comes factory-assembled, securely tightened, and ready to drop straight into your filter tank.
Genuine Hayward OEM: Don't trust your expensive filter system to generic, ill-fitting aftermarket grids. This is an authentic, factory-direct Hayward assembly, guaranteeing an exact fit, a perfect internal seal, and long-lasting durability.
Exceptional Water Clarity: Utilizing Diatomaceous Earth (D.E.) powder, these specialized grids trap incredibly small particulates—down to 1 to 3 microns in size (far smaller than what a sand or standard cartridge filter can catch)—providing the absolute highest level of water clarity available for residential pools.
Premium Grid Construction: The internal skeletal frames are injection-molded from 100% virgin, high-impact styrene to prevent crushing under immense pump pressure. The frames are then tightly covered with a highly durable, multi-filament polypropylene fabric that resists tearing, fraying, and harsh chemical degradation.
Restores Hydraulic Efficiency: Over time, old grids become permanently clogged with heavy body oils and calcium scale, severely restricting water flow. Dropping in a fresh cluster instantly lowers your tank's baseline pressure and allows your pool pump to circulate water more efficiently, reducing motor strain and lowering your monthly energy costs.
