Filbur FC-1293 Filter Cartridge

This cartridge is specifically engineered as a direct replacement for Hayward C1200 and Waterway Plastics filtration systems. Before purchasing, verify your current filter model number to ensure it matches these specifications.

The antimicrobial end caps are designed to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew on the filter itself. This helps maintain cleaner water and extends the overall lifespan of the cartridge by preventing microbial degradation.

The extruded PVC center core provides the structural backbone of the filter. It prevents the cartridge from collapsing under high water pressure, ensuring consistent flow rates and filtration efficiency throughout the season.

No, you do not. The filter features molded-in threads, which means it screws directly into your housing without the need for loose inserts or additional hardware, making the installation process straightforward.

While the pleated polyester media is durable, you should rinse it periodically to remove trapped debris. Depending on your pool's usage and water conditions, most users find they need to replace the cartridge entirely every 6 to 12 months to maintain optimal water clarity.
