PUMP HOUSING WITH DRAIN PLUG

Hayward Pump Housing with Drain Plug — sometimes referred to as a pump housing/strainer assembly with a drain plug — is a key wet‑end component for many Hayward pool pumps. It forms the outer body around the pump’s intake strainer basket and impeller, serving as the pressure‑rated enclosure for water intake. The integrated drain plug allows you to easily empty the housing — whether for routine maintenance, winterizing, or servicing the pump — by removing water without disassembling the entire pump. Because it’s made from pool‑grade, corrosion‑resistant plastics and designed to match Hayward’s original pump geometry, it ensures a tight seal under pressure and maintains reliable water flow, structural integrity, and safe operation.
