Warnings and Disclaimers

  • Pressure Hazard: Always turn off the pump and bleed all air from the system using the air relief valve before opening the filter canister to prevent serious injury.
  • Dimension Check: Verify the 2-3/8" hole diameter before installation; a mismatch can lead to unfiltered water bypassing the element.
  • Chemical Usage: Do not place sanitizing tablets directly inside the filter core; concentrated chemicals will degrade the [PVC center core](https://www.poolsupplyunlimited.com) and polyester media.
  • Service Only: This cartridge is designed for filtration only; it cannot be backwashed like a sand or DE filter.

Pro Tips

  • Cleaning Schedule: Clean the cartridge when the tank pressure gauge rises 8-10 PSI above the starting pressure of a brand-new filter.
  • Effective Rinsing: Use a specialized [filter cleaning wand](https://www.amazon.com) to get deep into the pleats where oils and calcium build up.
  • Rotation Strategy: Purchase two cartridges and rotate them. Allowing one to dry completely after cleaning helps the polyester fibers "reset" and improves filtration efficiency.
  • Degreasing: If your pool sees heavy sunblock or lotion use, soak the cartridge in a [degreasing solution](https://www.lowes.com) seasonally to restore water flow.
