Installation Notes
Turn off the pump and isolate system pressure. Open the spa filter housing, remove the old cartridge, clean out debris and inspect the housing and O-ring seal. Install the new C-8326 cartridge making sure it is fully seated and oriented correctly. Reassemble the housing, restore system flow, and monitor pressure to confirm return to normal operating range.
Maintenance Tip
Rinse the cartridge monthly and inspect the media and pleats for wear or collapse. If cleaning no longer restores acceptable flow or pressure readings remain high, replace the cartridge to maintain clear water and efficient system operation.
