Hayward SwimClear 425 Sq Ft Cartridge Filter System | C4030

The Hayward SwimClear 425 Sq Ft Cartridge Filter (Model C4030) delivers premium water clarity, high flow capacity, and long maintenance intervals for both residential and commercial pools. Designed with Hayward’s advanced Quad-Cluster™ configuration, it uses four reusable cartridges to provide a massive 425 sq. ft. of filtration area—capturing fine debris without the need for backwashing or additional filter media. The efficient low head loss design reduces system strain and energy use, promoting better circulation and lower operating costs while maintaining consistent, crystal-clear water quality.

Constructed from glass-reinforced co-polymer, the SwimClear C4030 is engineered for maximum durability and corrosion resistance, even under harsh pool and spa conditions. Its easy-access maintenance features include a large manual air relief valve, a tamper-proof one-piece clamp, and self-aligning top and bottom halves for quick, tool-free servicing. The top manifold design ensures balanced water distribution across all four cartridge elements for optimal filtration and longevity. Combining energy efficiency, rugged construction, and service-friendly features, the C4030 sets the benchmark for reliability in Hayward’s cartridge filter lineup.
