Hayward BASE

The Hayward Base (part number CLX200A) is a purpose-built mounting platform designed to provide a stable and permanent foundation for Hayward CL200 and CL220 series automatic chemical feeders. Constructed from a rugged, high-impact thermoplastic, this base is engineered to be extremely resistant to corrosion, UV degradation, and the harsh chemical environment typical of a pool equipment pad. Its primary function is to secure the feeder to the ground, preventing it from tipping or vibrating during high-pressure operation, which helps protect the integrity of the attached PVC plumbing and reduces the risk of stress-related leaks. The base features a contoured design that allows the feeder to snap or bolt into place securely, along with pre-molded mounting holes for easy fastening to concrete or wooden surfaces. By elevating the unit slightly, it also helps safeguard the feeder from debris and standing water, thereby extending the service life of the sanitation system. For shipping and logistical purposes, the estimated weight of the Hayward Base is approximately 1.2 pounds in its protective packaging, while the actual weight of the molded base itself is roughly 0.9 pounds.
