I need to replace the lateral assembly for my Hayward Sand filter. The part number on the assembly is S-240-E and the total length is 27.5....laterals S-240-D. I do not know what model of filter I have since there is no part number or label on the filter....came with house. I am unable to determine what replacement part number to order. I can not find a lateral assembly that is 27.5...

I had asked an earlier question regarding replacing the center pipe and laterals on a S245T Hayward filter and I forgot to mention that the mechanism to backwash and filter that sits on the filter is new it is a Hayward Variflo 7 position XL valve just in case that should make a difference in the part number for the center pipe and laterals thank you again!

The original Valve, Top Mount Flanged 1 1/2 Wg (SP0714T) that is was installed on the filters would not result in an issue the laterals. If you replaced with a valve outside of that, you may run into issues during the install. The Top Mount Valve for Sand 1.5" - PL0714 is an alternate choice to the Hayward OEM.
