Description
The Filbur FC-1294 Spa/Pool Replacement Filter Cartridge is engineered for standout durability and dependable filtration in both residential and commercial settings. Designed to deliver clear water with less maintenance, this cartridge combines Filbur’s precision manufacturing with advanced materials to keep spas and pools pristine season after season.
Key features that set the FC-1294 apart:
- Reinforced PVC center cores—extruded, with round holes for even stress distribution, preventing crack or collapse under heavy debris loading and increasing time between cleanings.
- Premium polyester media—durable, easy to clean, and optimized for efficient filtration, helping water stay clearer for longer and extending cartridge life.
- Antimicrobial end caps—reinforced for strength and treated to repel odor-causing bacteria and mold, providing added protection in damp, hot environments.
- Wide, break-resistant support bands—keep pleats evenly spaced for steady flow, reducing pleat flutter and preserving filtration efficiency even in turbulent housings.
- End caps with integrated fittings—molded-in fittings simplify installation and removal, eliminating the need for pad adapters that can hinder flow and filtration.
- Sharpl pleat folds—the unique synthetic fiber construction minimizes bridging and allows contaminants to penetrate deep into the filter, boosting flow and making cleaning easier.
- Embossed part numbers—easy to identify and reorder, so you can maintain uninterrupted filtration without guesswork.
