Pro Tip

Match your pump and plumbing so the system flow remains at or below ~120 GPM to maximize media life and maintain clarity. Confirm you have at least 62–74″ vertical clearance above the tank for lid removal and cartridge access. Monitor system pressure and when it rises ~10 psi above clean start, backwash or remove cartridges and rinse thoroughly. Inspect cartridges regularly for wear and replace every few seasons, depending on usage.

Installation Tips

High-level safety/compatibility notes only: Shut off pool pump power and relieve system pressure before servicing or installing. Ensure the base is level and rated for the tank plus water and cartridge load. Confirm plumbing ports match a 2″ connection or adapt accordingly. Lubricate and inspect O-ring seals and clamp rings before restarting. Use only a compatible multiport or backwash valve (sold separately) per Pentair recommendations.
