Fluidra - Filter Base Ø1050 mm for BWS2 Sand Filter

Fluidra – Filter Base Ø1050 mm for BWS2 Sand Filter

This is the genuine Fluidra replacement filter base for the BWS2 1050–1200 sand filter series. It forms the structural lower section of the filter tank, housing the underdrain collector assembly and providing the sealed foundation that the filter vessel and internal components depend on. Replacing a damaged or cracked base restores the structural integrity and watertight performance of the entire filtration system.

Compatibility

This filter base is designed specifically for the Fluidra BWS2 sand filter in the Ø1050 mm tank size, covering the BWS2 1050–1200 model range. The BWS2 is a side-outlet, bobbin-wound fibreglass filter commonly installed in large residential and light-commercial pool systems across Europe. Always verify your filter’s model code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.

Why Genuine Matters

As an OEM Fluidra part, this base is manufactured to the exact dimensional and material tolerances of the original component — ensuring a precise seal with the filter tank body and correct alignment of the collector arms. Non-genuine substitutes may not match the bolt patterns, wall thickness or material grade of the BWS2 series, risking leaks or premature failure under operating pressure.

Installation

Replacement of the filter base is a major service procedure requiring full draining of the filter, removal of all internal components (collector arms, diffuser cone, sand media), and careful re-sealing of the tank joint. Due to the size and weight of the Ø1050 mm filter, professional installation by a qualified pool technician is strongly recommended.
