Hayward W530 Large Leaf Canister | For Suction Cleaners

OEM Hayward W530 Leaf Canister is a high-capacity debris collection system built for use with standard suction-side pool cleaners and 1.5-inch vacuum hoses. Featuring a reusable mesh bag and a flow-optimized design, it traps leaves and large debris before they clog the filter or pump basket. Its extra-large size allows extended cleaning cycles, while the transparent housing and easy-open lid make it simple to monitor and empty. Ideal for debris-heavy pools, the W530 helps preserve water flow and extend equipment lifespan.
