Jayne- Replacing the Cap & Gasket kit 4802-09B  on you sand filter you would need to simply unscrew the old one, and quickly screw this one on.

I have a cap (S-180-H) and it leaks all the time,do you have any? It also has no gasket. Can you help me.
 Reply

A  Answered on 10/20/2015 by InyoPools Product Specialist Lennox H.

Hi Keith, Because you don't have a gasket that's why it leaks. I would recommend getting the Drain Cap Gasket (G-382), that will solve your problem.

My cap was replaced last fall by a pool company that is no longer in business. The cap leaked from day one and it did not have a gasket. The cap cracked and blew out the front of the cap. Now the threads are stripped and a new cap will not seal. What do i do?
 Reply

A  Answered on 1/6/2016 by InyoPools Product Specialist Megan C.

John, If the threads are stripped there may be nothing else to do short of replacing the tank. I would recommend calling Hayward. You can reach them at 888-429-9273.

I called Blue Water as I'm looking for a filter drain cap for my Sandman filter.  They only have the whole drain assembly available (#NEP2123) and shared your number.  I see several caps, but don't know if they're the right one for my filter.

Hi Lisa, Unfortunately, just the cap is not available for that filter. You will have to replace the entire Drain Plug Assembly - NEP2123

Why does a drain cap cost so much? It's a plastic cap.

The SM2106T is also sold under the name 20 Inch Sandmstr Filter 6Way The Cap & Gasket Kit - SX180HG is what you are referring to, the Drain Cap w/ Gasket and Screen - SX180LA is for models after 2006.
