Description

The Pentair EQ Series strainer basket (12" x 14") is a heavy-duty OEM replacement designed for commercial pool pump systems. Built to handle high flow and heavy debris loads, this basket captures leaves, hair, and debris before they reach the pump impeller—helping prevent damage and maintain consistent performance.

Constructed from durable plastic, it withstands harsh pool chemicals and continuous operation in demanding environments like hotels, apartments, and aquatic facilities. Its large-capacity design reduces cleaning frequency while maintaining optimal flow through the system. Engineered for a precise fit in EQ Series hair and lint strainer housings, it installs quickly with no modification required.

Pro Tip

If your basket is cracking or collapsing, inspect the strainer housing and lid O-ring. A failing seal can cause cavitation and reduce pump efficiency.
