Will this grid assy. replace (or interchange with) my Pleatco PFS2448??

The PL0188-ASSY will work if you have the Hayward DE4800 or DE4820 filter. It will also work if you have a Pentair/Purex NS48. It won't work with the Pentair FNS or FNS 48.

My husband and I replaced the grids in our pool filter several years ago. The project took us several hours and was extremely frustrating. Trying to fit the grids into the manifolds was something we didn’t want to tackle again. When it was time to finally replace the entire assembly, Inyo pools was a life saver. They offered us a pre-assembled generic unit that saved us not only hours of frustration, but also several hundred dollars. They were patient with my lack of knowledge and experience, and we ended up simply removing the old unit and dropping in the new unit in a matter of minutes. I highly recommend Inyo Pools to anyone with pool-related questions and/or problems.
