what size filter should be for a zero entry pool 70 long and deep end is 7 foot it is 30 feet wide I have a ccp420 and my filters need cleaning every-week is there any better cartilages
 Reply

A  Answered on 6/16/2017 by InyoPools Product Specialist Lennox H.

Hi, Ric. A pool filter is based on the pump flow rate. If you currently have a CCP420 and the elements have to be cleaned weekly you may want to increase the filter to the Clean & Clear Plus Filter 520 - 160332.

What type pump should be used. Pool size 16' x 32' - 3.5' to 7.7' deep

Hi, You will need to calculate the total feet of head of your pool. You can watch our How To: Size A Pool Pump to find out how to calculate the total feet of head. Once you have that info you can provide us with that figure then we can recommend a pump that can be used with this filter.

Will this Product (Pentair Multiport 2 Inch Hi-Flow DE Filter Valve 261142) fit the above filter?
 Reply

A  Answered on 10/2/2014 by InyoPools Product Specialist Patrick P.

Filter model # 160340, does not require a multiport valve. The valves are only required for sand or DE filter units, not needed for cartridge filters.

Replace an old Hayward DE filter.

Written on 5/11/2020 by Guest

After many years of the DE filter use, it was time to replace. Cleaning the DE filter became a hassle, draining was always a messy job. DE residue all over ground and then restoring the DE was always a mess. But this time, I noticed the plastic water diffuser in the filter was becoming brittle and cracking, I suppose it was old and affected by the chlorine over the years.

I tried carefully to put back the filters blades and everything was breaking, nevertheless, I completed putting everything back together and started to close the filter with the band that keeps both half's of the filter together when the band broke.

The screw was stripped out and I could no longer replace the screw. Look it up on the internet and could not find it. No longer available. Therefore, maybe it was time to replace the old Hayward DE filter with a new Pentair 4 cartridge filter to match my one year old Pentair variable speed motor.

I was able to calculate the appropriate size filter using Pentair pool calculator. I verified the size with Inyo support staff and they verified my calcs. Ordered the Pentair pool filter, installed it relatively easy. The hardest part was waiting for the PVC glue to dry for next day use. Happy to say, my pool is now crystal clear and clean. I recycled the fiberglass halves of the filter as planters in the backyard.

Now I can enjoy my summer in the pool.
