How to find a replacement cartridge for your pool or spa

Finding the right replacement pool filter cartridge is easy. To help you out we have created some simple step-by-step instructions to help you find the right replacement cartridge.


Step 1

Write down the manufacturer’s (OEM) and model number of the filter that the replacement cartridge will be installed in.


Step 2

Measure the outside diameter of the cartridge in inches. This should be fairly accurate within 1/16 on an inch.


Step 3

Measure the overall length of the cartridge in inches. Be sure to include the endcaps but don’t include any handles, strings, stickers, etc. If possible, you should measure through the center of the cartridge for the most accurate reading.


Step 4

If the top and/or bottom of the cartridge is open, measure the inside diameter of the opening.


Step 5

Notice if there is a PVC pipe in the center. This is also known as a center core. Count the number of pleats and write them down.


Step 6
