Pentair PKG98 Cast Iron Hair and Lint Trap 8 inch with 3 inch Suction
Pentair PKG98 Cast Iron Hair and Lint Trap 8 inch with 3 inch Suction
If you have a commercial pool pump that has a strict flow rate, some leaf and debris traps will be unavailable to use in your system. The cast iron Pentair PKG98 solves this problem, because of its extremely durable body. It can withstand high flow up to 170 GPM.
Who is this for?
This trap sits between the pools main drains or inlets and the pool pump, catching hair and debris before it reaches the pump internals. A clogged basket can restrict flow and break prime, allowing air to circulate through your pumps impeller.
