Within the filtration system, the manifold serves a dual function — anchoring the D.E. filter grids securely in position while evenly distributing water flow across all grid surfaces to maintain consistent filtration performance. A cracked or compromised manifold is among the most frequently encountered causes of debris bypassing the filter entirely, resulting in persistently cloudy pool water even when the grids themselves appear undamaged and clean. The SW-26-369 delivers a fast, affordable path to restored filtration performance, eliminating the need for a full filter assembly replacement and reducing both parts costs and service time for pool owners and technicians.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"text-text-100 mt-2 -mb-1 text-base font-bold\"\u003eHighlights\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDirect Replacement for Pentair 073270Z:\u003c\/strong\u003e Manufactured to match OEM Pentair specifications, the SW-26-369 installs seamlessly into Pentair Purex SM and SMBW 2000 and 4000 Series D.E. filters, with confirmed compatibility across models 2024, 2036, 2048, 2060, 2072, 4024, 4036, 4048, and 4060.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e8-Hole Configuration for Balanced Water Distribution:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 8-hole bottom manifold design promotes even, consistent water flow through all D.E. filter grids simultaneously, preventing dead zones within the filter and sustaining the filtration efficiency the system was engineered to deliver.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEliminates Debris Bypass at the Source:\u003c\/strong\u003e By firmly securing the filter grid assembly within the housing, the SW-26-369 closes the gaps that allow unfiltered water and fine debris to circumvent the grids — directly addressing one of the most common root causes of cloudy pool water in D.E. filtration systems.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeavy-Duty, Chemical-Resistant Construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built from pool-grade materials selected for durability under sustained water pressure and continuous chemical exposure, the SW-26-369 is engineered to hold up under the demanding operating conditions of an active D.E. filtration system season after season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCost-Effective Alternative to Full Filter Replacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Targeting only the failed manifold component rather than the entire filter assembly, the SW-26-369 offers a practical, budget-friendly restoration option that significantly reduces both parts expenditure and labor time for homeowners and pool service professionals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Swimables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55077831704867,"sku":"SW-26-369","price":34.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/0987\/5235\/files\/wpmSwimablesManifoldforPentairPurexFilters073270ZSW-26-369_2.jpg?v=1778627163","url":"https:\/\/wholesalepoolmart.com\/products\/swimables-manifold-for-pentair-purex-filters-073270z-sw-26-369","provider":"Wholesale Pool Mart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
