Is there a step by step pdf for replacing the manidold, bottom collector (CX3000C)? I am trying to determine the simplicity or complexity of doing myself.

Hi Dale, I ran across this Youtube Video on How to Replace a Hayward Bottom Collector Manifold, which you should find to be helpful on replacing this part..

I have a C 5025 Haward filter system on my 40' pool. Recently I had a Mustard Algea problem. I handled the chemical addatives and was able to eleminate the algea. I vaquamed the pool floor and removed all the algea material. However, i noticed that some of the algea matter returned in the water back flow to the pool, and when the filter was turned off, it settled on the pool floor and formed a complete coating. Any idea what has gone wrong? Thank you. N.A.T.

Hi Norbert, The cartridges  could be old allowing debris to pass straight through, the manifold could be broken or the air tube strainer could have a hole. Any one of these can allow debris to go back into the pool.

Hi, Cecil. To remove the bottom manifold, you will have to remove the lower Pipe Assembly.

Hi, Is this the correct lower manifold for a C-3020? My old manifold has C3000-C molded into the part. Thanks

I have a model C5520BHME Hayward Cartridge Pool Filter - I noticed a crack in the bottom manifold - Is this the correct part for me? what other items do I need to replace this part? I have noticed more small fine debris in my pool. any advice on what to check?

A  Answered on 6/20/2022 by InyoPools Product Specialist Craig C.

Hello Bill.  The Manifold, Bottom Collector - CX3000C is the correct bottom manifold for the Hayward SwimClear Cartridge Filter model C5520.   The O-ring, Bulkhead (-5092-10b) - DEX360M (Outlet Elbow o-ring) should be replaced concurrent with the new manifold.  A defective manifold and/or outlet elbow o-ring may result in fine particulate not being captured on the filter.
