Molded from heavy-duty, commercial-grade PVC and ABS composites, this upper manifold connects to the filter's internal side bulkheads to receive raw, high-velocity pool water from the circulation pump. It distributes this incoming flow evenly across the top of the sand bed via integrated diffuser channels, preventing a destructive phenomenon known as \"channeling,\" where water carves a single direct path through the sand and bypasses proper filtration. By ensuring uniform water distribution across the media surface, the assembly maximizes fine particulate capture down to 20 microns while also providing integrated routing for the internal air-bleed tube to safely exhaust trapped air pockets. Depending on whether it is configured for a standard or heavy-duty commercial unit (such as Part #156344 or #156355), the assembly measures roughly 16 to 17 inches in length, carries an actual product weight between \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"0\" data-index-in-node=\"1102\"\u003e0.84 and 1.97 pounds\u003c\/b\u003e, and yields a packaged shipping weight of \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"0\" data-index-in-node=\"1165\"\u003e1.5 to 3.0 pounds\u003c\/b\u003e to protect its rigid layout during transit.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Commercial Pool and Spa Supplies","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53762621898863,"sku":"154007","price":280.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0678\/3785\/3807\/files\/154008_7b3dbca2-fca9-4a86-baa4-e84f599ec322.webp?v=1783608728","url":"https:\/\/commercialpoolandspasupplies.com\/products\/pentair-tr100c-upper-pipe-assembly","provider":"Commercial Pool and Spa Supplies ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
