Review: I recommend this sand filter - I had a DE filter and was really tired of replacing the filter grids, having to open up the filter regularly (every month or to) to clean the grids, and buying DE. Plus I guess the filter housing was getting old because despite twice replacing the big O ring between the housing halves, something always leaked especially when I upped the pressure to run the Polaris. This caused air to enter and water / DE to flow back into the pool It finally totally wouldn't stop leaking. I was really tired of messing with the whole setup. Anyway, I wanted something simpler, that didn't require as frequent maintenance and decided on this Hayward sand filter despite that I had read that sand filters supposedly don't filter as well. Best decision I ever made (except, I must say, marrying my wife who is sitting next to me)! By the time I installed it after 2 weeks of no filtering the pool was army green. Took a full 5 days of filtering, a couple of shocks and extra flocculent but now the pool looks great and I look forward to years of the minimal maintenance of a sand filter. This sand filter clears the water 99% as well as DE filter - just takes longer - but the end result is PERFECTLY fine. Product delivery was timely, the box was intact, all the parts were there, and installation was easy and straight forward even for a regular around the house handy man like me. This filter housing seems very sturdy and the multi-valve feels solid and of high quality. After putting in the sand, run in Rinse mode first to get fine sediment out. After filtering for a while then let things settle and vacuum the whole pool to get out the super fine sediment from the bottom the sand filter may not be getting, then the water will get even clearer. In short, I recommend this filter. Review: installation was very easy. It even came with a cardboard funnel (referred ... - I purchased this model Hayward S244T ProSeries 24" as an exact replacement for the previous filter on my pool, which was the exact same model. The only apparent difference between my new filter and the older version is the new one has off-set valves whereas the old S244T the valves where directly one above the other. Pool: 20 feet x 40 feet in-ground pool with a deep end (approx 40,000 gallons). Pump was not replaced and is 1.5 hp I used 4 bags of ZeoSand Alternative Pool Sand Filter Media - 50 Pound bags to fill the filter with sand. ZeoSand states that 50 lbs of ZeoSand is equal to 100 lb of regular pool sand, put it took 200 lb to fill. The Hayward S244T required 300 lb of regular pool filter sand to fill to correct level. I purchased the Hayward S244T in July and it kept my pool clean for the rest of the summer. Since it was replacing an older filter that was the same model, installation was very easy. It even came with a cardboard funnel (referred to as a sand shield in the manual) to use to pour the sand into the filter without spilling any sand or getting in the internal pipe (lateral assembly). So far I have been very happy with how clean the pool has been since installing my new Hayward S244T. Not sure how long the previous owners had the old Hayward S244T for, but I believe it was for 20+ years. ## Features - Durable corrosion proof materials for dependable all weather performance - Large pressure sand/water drain for rapid winterizing or servicing - Side-mount models are available with 6-position VariFlo or 2-position slide valve ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B000EY39QY | | Best Sellers Rank | #26,089 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #33 in Sand Pool Filters | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (682) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 48 pounds | | Item model number | S244T | | Manufacturer | Hayward | ## Images ![Hayward S244T ProSeries Sand Filter, 24-Inch, Top-Mount - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61P8b8p3A+L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recommend this sand filter *by A***R on July 2, 2016* I had a DE filter and was really tired of replacing the filter grids, having to open up the filter regularly (every month or to) to clean the grids, and buying DE.

My wife and i spent months looking at new filters. DE,sand and multiple cartridge filters.All the pool stores in my town wanted $600 to $1000 for a pump installed. we were very skeptical on this filter because of its price $290.00 shipped to our door. Are old filter was a cartridge filter and would have a lot of blow by of dirt when the pool bottom had a little dirt on it. This filter has none! Are pool was swamp green when we started 2 months ago. This filter took everything out. All the dead waste, dirt, and what ever else was in there in only 2 days. 5 months we did nothing to the pool and 2 days later perfect water. We installed the filter with basic household tools (saw and sandpaper ) and basic pluming skills. We purchased all the piping and sand at homedepot for $50 dollars. And installation only took 2 hours. The instructions are really simply. And the sight glass for back washing the filter is awesome! No running out to the end of the hose to see if the water is clean all you do is watch the glass to see. I only wish I would have purchased this filter last year. Hayward company has earned my respect for building a great filter and saving my summer to come. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hayward S244T ProSeries Sand Filter, 24-Inch, Top-Mount - Hayward CL200 In-line Automatic Chemical Feeder - Hayward SP0714T VariFlo Top-Mount Multiport Valve, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/2274994-hayward-s244t-proseries-sand-filter-24-inch-top-mount](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/2274994-hayward-s244t-proseries-sand-filter-24-inch-top-mount) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-22*
