AIR RELIEF TUBE SCREEN

The Hayward Auto Air Relief Tube with Screen is a component used in certain pool-filter systems from Hayward. It serves as an air-relief tube: when air becomes trapped in the filter or plumbing system, this tube (equipped with a screen) allows that air to safely vent out — preventing pressure buildup and helping the filter system to function properly. The screen is important because it prevents debris or dirt from entering the air-relief passage when air is released, which helps maintain cleanliness and avoids clogging. The part is made from durable, corrosion-resistant materials suited for pool environments (chemicals, water, UV exposure), and it’s intended as a genuine replacement part for compatibility with certain Hayward cartridge-filter models.
