The base the MultiCyclone is meant to stand on.
A purpose-made mounting base for the MultiCyclone range. It is an accessory, not a filter — it holds the unit at the right height and in the right place on the pump line.

The Speck MultiCyclone MC Base is a mounting base accessory for Speck MultiCyclone pool pre-filters. It holds the pre-filter in position on the pump line so the clear sediment chamber is visible and the purge valve is accessible. It is an accessory only — no pre-filter, pump, filter or pipework is included, and it performs no filtration itself.
A stand, and only a stand
This listing is the mounting base on its own. It does not include a MultiCyclone pre-filter, a pump, a filter or any pipework, and it does not filter anything itself. If you are looking for the unit that does the work, that is the MultiCyclone 12 or 16.
Store spec: mounting base / stand accessory; pre-filter and pipework not included
It puts the purge valve where you can reach it
Mounting the unit properly is what makes the clear chamber visible and the purge valve usable without lying on the paving. A pre-filter you cannot comfortably empty is a pre-filter that stops getting emptied.

Should this be installed by a pool technician?
Yes. Professional installation is recommended to make sure the compatible Speck MultiCyclone unit is correctly supported, aligned and plumbed into the pool system.
Not sure which MultiCyclone fits your system?
The right unit is the one that matches your pump’s flow rate, not the one with the most cyclones. Send us the pump and filter you already have and we will tell you which of these suits it.
