 Product Description

The Pentair 178654 Quad 60 Filter Cartridge is a state-of-the-art pool filter cartridge designed to maintain pool water clarity and cleanliness. As the name suggests, the Quad stands for its quadruple-layered filtration system, providing efficient and comprehensive debris removal.

This cartridge is specifically crafted to work with diatomaceous earth (DE) filtration systems, offering a unique combination of DE's refined particle filtration capabilities with the ease of a cartridge filter. DE filters have tiny diatom particles that trap even microscopic debris, ensuring crystal-clear water.

Installation is relatively user-friendly. Start by switching off the pool pump, opening the filter tank, and removing old cartridges. Place the new cartridge inside, making sure it sits evenly. After installation, prime the filter with DE powder per the manufacturer's guidelines.

Regular backwashing (reversing water flow to clean out the filter) is advised for maintenance. Replacement is needed when the cartridge becomes too clogged or damaged. Usually, the cartridge's lifespan can be extended by cleaning it with a garden hose, but over time, the fibers degrade, necessitating a new cartridge.

Investing in a Pentair 178654 ensures optimal pool filtration. Regular checks and timely replacements will keep your pool sparkling clean and extend the life of your cartridge.
