Filbur FC-1292 Replacement Pool Filter Cartridge

 (UPC: 645544012920). Engineered to meet or exceed OEM standards, this high-performance 90 sq. ft. cartridge is a direct replacement for the Hayward Star-Clear Plus C900 and Sta-Rite Posi-Clear PXC-95 filtration systems. Built with premium Reemay® filtration fabric and reinforced antimicrobial end caps, it provides superior durability and effective debris removal even in saltwater or high-chlorine environments. 

Key Features & Benefits:

  • Superior Filtration: Features high-quality pleated polyester media that effectively traps dirt, dust, and fine particles for exceptional water clarity.
  • Durable Construction: Built with break-resistant bands to keep pleats evenly spaced, ensuring maximum water flow and reducing system back-pressure.
  • Antimicrobial End Caps: Reinforced end caps resist chemical degradation and inhibit the growth of odor-causing bacteria, extending the life of the cartridge.
  • Precision Fit: Features a reinforced PVC center core for consistent water flow and structural integrity under pressure.
  • Easy Maintenance: Designed to be cleanable and reusable, requiring fewer replacements over the pool season.

Warnings and Disclaimers

  • Pressure Hazard: Always turn off the pool pump and bleed all air from the system before opening the filter housing to prevent injury.
  • Compatibility Check: Verify dimensions and hole diameters (4") before ordering to ensure fit for your specific filter canister.
  • Chemical Handling: Do not add pool chemicals (like chlorine tablets) directly into the filter canister; this will degrade the filter media and end caps.
  • Warranty: Use of aftermarket cartridges like Filbur typically does not void equipment warranties, but refer to your system manufacturer's specific terms.

Pro Tips

  • Regular Maintenance: Clean the cartridge when the pressure gauge on the tank reaches 8–10 PSI above the starting "clean" pressure.
  • Cleaning Method: Rinse with a garden hose first. For deep cleaning, soak in a [Filter Cleaner Solution](https://www.amazon.com) overnight, rinse again, and let dry before reinstalling.
  • Alternate Seasonally: Keep a second cartridge on hand. Swapping them allows one to be thoroughly cleaned and dried (which helps the fibers tighten) while the other keeps the pool running.
  • Antimicrobial Advantage: Antimicrobial end caps specifically help inhibit the growth of bacteria and mold within the filter pleats.
