Pool Filter 4PK Replacement Optimum Pool 106SQFT Reemay Cartridges

Description

Product Overview

Optimum Pool Technologies presents a premium 4‑pack of Reemay filter cartridges designed specifically for residential swimming pools. Each cartridge measures 106 square feet of filtration area, providing ample surface for debris capture while maintaining high water flow rates. Constructed from 100% Reemay filtration media, the cartridges offer superior durability, resistance to clogging, and easy cleanability, ensuring that pool owners experience fewer service interruptions and lower long‑term maintenance costs. The cartridges feature a 3‑inch inside diameter, a 7‑inch outside diameter, and a length of 25‑½ inches, dimensions that align perfectly with Hayward SwimClear, Super Star‑Clear, and Unicel filter housings. The package includes four individual cartridges, each equipped with reinforced support bands that secure the media within the housing, preventing media shift during operation and extending the service life of the filter element.

Manufactured in the United States, these cartridges meet rigorous quality standards and are engineered to replace OEM part numbers CX‑870, CX‑870RE, CX‑870XRE, CX‑880RE, CX‑880XRE, Unicel C‑7488, and Pleatco PA‑106 among others. The design incorporates a seamless pleated media structure that maximizes surface area while minimizing pressure drop, allowing pool pumps to operate efficiently. The Reemay material is chemically inert, resisting degradation from chlorine, bromine, and other common pool chemicals, which contributes to a longer lifespan compared to standard polyester media. Additionally, the cartridges are compatible with a wide range of pool filter housings, making them a versatile solution for pool owners seeking a reliable, high‑performance replacement.

Usage

These cartridges are ideal for a variety of residential pool environments, including in‑ground and above‑ground pools ranging from 15,000 to 30,000 gallons. Whether the pool is used for daily family recreation, weekend gatherings, or occasional fitness swimming, the Reemay cartridges maintain crystal‑clear water by efficiently trapping fine particles, algae spores, and organic debris. Installation is straightforward: simply remove the existing cartridge, insert the new Reemay cartridge, and secure the housing with the provided support bands. The cartridges are designed for both standard and high‑flow filter housings, allowing pool owners to upgrade without the need for additional hardware.

During peak usage periods, such as summer months or when hosting pool parties, the high‑flow capacity of the Reemay media ensures that water circulation remains strong, reducing the likelihood of cloudy water or filter overload. For pools equipped with automatic cleaning systems, the cartridges work in harmony with robotic cleaners, providing a clean baseline that enhances the effectiveness of supplemental cleaning devices. Regular back‑washing or rinsing of the cartridges, as recommended by the manufacturer, restores optimal performance and extends the service interval, making these cartridges a cost‑effective choice for long‑term pool maintenance.
