Superpool TT Filter Replacement Parts

This is the most common question about terminology, and clarifying it prevents you from ordering the wrong part. At the bottom of the filter, there are two distinct components:

• The strainers: the slotted arms or “fingers” that let water through and trap sand. These are the parts that break and cause sand to appear in the pool
• The manifold: the central component to which all the strainers are screwed, connected to the filter’s outlet

When someone says, “My manifold has broken,” in 90% of cases they’re referring to a strainer (€16.79–19.80 for a pack of 4), not the manifold (€20.88–32.46).

To figure out which one you need: if, when you open the filter, you see a broken arm or one with open slots, those are strainers. If the broken part is the central piece where the threads connect, then it is the manifold—and in that case, check whether your connection is 50 or 63 mm before ordering.

The diagnosis is almost always the same: a broken or loosely secured strainer. Strainers act as a barrier between the sand and the return pipe; when one cracks, sand enters the pool.

Complete procedure:

• Shut off the pump and empty the sand filter. This is a good time to replace the sand if it’s several years old
• Remove and inspect ALL the strainers, not just the one that looks broken: hold them up to the light and check the slots for fine cracks
• Replace the damaged strainers with ones of the same length (70, 100, 140, or 200 mm—measure from the thread to the tip).
• When reassembling, check that all strainers are tight: a loose strainer lets sand through just like a broken one

Tip to save you from having to disassemble it a second time: the packs come in sets of 4, and if the filter is several years old, replacing the entire set costs only slightly more than replacing just two and saves you from having to open it up again next season.

Important note: If what comes out is very fine dust instead of grains, the cause is usually worn-out sand that no longer retains particles—in that case, the solution is to replace the filter media, not the strainers.

Yes. The SCP Superpool TT is built on the Coral platform, the same technical foundation used for the laminated filters in the Alaska, Volcán, Neptuno, Ciclón, and Rubí lines, as well as those marketed as QP laminates.

What this means in practice:

• Common parts: strainers, lids, gaskets, pressure gauges, drain valves, and distributors are interchangeable across the entire product family
• Parts by diameter: diffusers and elbows are sized according to your filter’s dimensions, not the brand on the label
• Long-term availability: Since they share a platform with several active product lines, replacement parts continue to be manufactured even if your specific model is older

That’s why you’ll see product listings mention names from other product lines: it’s the same part. Whether your label says Superpool, Alaska, Volcán, or QP, you’re in the right place.

This specification determines the diffuser and elbows, so it’s important to be clear on it before placing an order. Two formats:

• Filter label: it’s marked as D.400, D.500, D.600, D.750, D.780, or D.900 (millimeters)
• Tape measure: Measure the body at its widest point; the result in millimeters is your diameter

Using that number, choose:

• Diffuser: one model for 400–650 mm and another for 750–900 mm
• Elbows: there are sets for 500, 600, and 780 mm, and you must also determine whether the damaged part is the upper elbow (which connects to the diffuser) or the lower elbow (which connects to the bottom manifold)

The wall-mounted fittings, on the other hand, are selected based on the valve’s connection diameter: 50 mm for 1½-inch valves and 63 mm for 2-inch valves.

Stop tightening —that’s when a €22 repair turns into a €36 or €109 one. If the lid leaks even when the screws are tightened to their normal torque, the lid gasket is worn out.

Proper replacement:

• With the pump shut off and the filter depressurized, remove the cover
• Clean the gasketseat: accumulated limescale prevents it from sealing properly, even if the gasket is new
• Install the gasket without twisting it, using a thin film of silicone lubricant
• Tighten the screws in a crisscross pattern and gradually, without using a torque wrench

If the cover already has cracks or the screw holes are stripped, replace it: standard 10-screw model (€35.78) or transparent ABS model (€109), which also lets you check the condition of the filter media without having to open the filter every time.

General guideline: every 4–6 seasons, or sooner if the water is hard or chemical maintenance has been irregular. Signs that the filter media is spent:

• High pressure that doesn’t drop after backwashing (the definitive sign)
• Water that doesn’t clear even though the filter has been running for hours
• Fine sediment returning to the pool
• Sand clumped into hard blocks when opening the filter

Checklist with the filter open —an extra half-hour that prevents having to reopen it in two months:

• Strainer baskets: all of them, one by one, held up to the light
• Upper diffuser: intact and securely seated
• Drain: Make sure it closes tightly (this is the one you’ll open during winterization)
• Lid gasket: Replace it even if it looks fine; it’s the one that will provide the seal for the next few years

And when refilling, consider filter glass: it filters more finely, requires less water to rinse, and lasts longer than sand. Both are available in filter refills.

This page includes the parts for the valve-filter connection: loose nuts, cups, 50- and 63-mm O-rings, nut gaskets, and complete elbows in 1 1/2" and 2" sizes. These parts resolve leaks at the point where the two components connect.

The interior of the valve —distribution star, spring, valve cover gasket, and lever—has its own catalog under “selector valve replacement parts.”

How to determine which side the problem is on:

• Leaking at the threaded connection between the valve and the filter → parts on this page (start with the gaskets, €4–6)
• Water is draining out of the drain while in the filtration position, or the handle doesn’t indicate the positions correctly → valve internals
• Sand in the pool, leak from the cover, pressure gauge not working → filter housing, this page

On this page, you'll find the complete parts list with direct links to each part:

• Cover and controls: pressure gauge, standard cover, transparent cover, and gasket
• Bottom: 70, 100, 140, and 200 mm strainers, and 50 and 63 mm distributors
• Diffusers and drain, elbows by diameter, and wall bushings
• Valve connection: O-rings, locknuts, cups, and complete elbows

The two key details for your order: filter diameter (for diffusers and elbows) and the exact length of the strainer you’re replacing. If in doubt, please send a photo of the label and the part via the contact form.
