Hayward DEP 500 Series Pleated Element DE Filter | 100 Sq Ft | DEP100

The Hayward DEP100 100 Sq Ft Pleated Element DE Filter combines the convenience of cartridge maintenance with the superior water clarity of diatomaceous earth (DE) technology. As part of Hayward’s innovative DEP 500 Series, this advanced hybrid filter delivers professional-grade filtration efficiency while dramatically simplifying maintenance. Its long-lasting pleated elements can be easily backwashed or removed and rinsed, eliminating the hassle of traditional grid-style DE systems. Designed for both new installations and retrofits, the DEP100 provides top-tier clarity, longer cleaning intervals, and energy-efficient performance for in-ground pools and spas.

Constructed from durable, glass-reinforced co-polymer, the DEP100 tank withstands high pressure, heat, and chemical exposure without warping or corrosion. The system features a rapid-release air relief valve, a heavy-duty tamper-proof clamp for quick internal access, and a self-aligning tank top and bottom for easy servicing. With a 2-inch full-flow hydraulic design, the DEP 500 Series reduces resistance and improves pump performance, making it an ideal upgrade for both DE and cartridge filter systems. Whether you’re replacing an older filter or installing a new one, the Hayward DEP100 offers exceptional durability, ease of use, and the finest water clarity available.
