Description
The Pentair Clean & Clear Plus Cartridge Filter 420 (SKU EC‑160301) is designed for high‑performance residential in‑ground pools where clarity, service intervals, and durability matter. With a full 420 sq ft of cartridge media, this unit delivers substantial dirt‑holding capacity and can handle flow rates up to approximately 150 GPM, making it ideal for larger or fast‑turnover pool systems. The rugged tank is injection‑moulded with fiberglass reinforcement and polypropylene for exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. Inside are four heavy‑duty cartridges — simply remove, rinse, and reinstall — eliminating the need for water‑wasting backwashes. Service features like a full‑drain port and built‑in air relief make maintenance quick and safe. If you’re seeking a cartridge filter that combines premium capacity with simplified upkeep, the EC‑160301 delivers the performance backbone your pool deserves.
Pro Tip
To optimize lifespan and clarity, ensure your pump’s flow remains below the ~150 GPM rating and give the filter at least 12″ clearance above so cartridge removal is easy. Consider replacing the cartridges when pressure rises ~10 PSI above clean start pressure and inspect the seal clamps routinely for a tight fit.
Installation Tips
High‑level safety/compatibility notes only: Always turn off pump power and relieve pressure before servicing. Ensure your plumbing and base support 2″ connections and the substantial tank size. Use only compatible cartridges and rinse them per the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure clamps are securely fastened and the air‑relief valve is functional before restarting the system.
