Q: I bought a 20 year old house with a pond that uses what looks like a hayward sand filter for filtration. The filter is buried up to the multiport valve so I can't tell what model number it is. I need to replace the Folding Lateral Assy but mine measures 28 in. long and the stand pipe is 1 7/8 in. OD. What model numer should I buy. Thank you

Q: the w3s270t on website says holds 500lbs sand but when you click on the manual it is the manual for s270t and says 350 lb. sand. Does the w3s270t hold 350 or 500 lbs of sand? Is w3s270t the same as s270t and use the same manual or are they different? and in what ways?
