How to measure a pool filter cartridge.
Find your replacement pool filter cartridge for your pool filter by following these instructions for measuring.

A. Measure the outside diameter ( O.D.) of the pool filter cartridge in inches. (+/- 1/16)

B. Measure the overall length of the  pool cartridge in inches (+/- 1/16), including the end caps. Do not include strings, handles. A more accurate measurement is made by measuring through the center of the cartridge when possible.

C. If the top and/or bottom are open, measure the inside diameter of the opening (+/- 1/16 in.). The end cap configuration should match the product you select (see product image)
.

D. Make note of the manufacturer (OEM) and model number of your pool filter.

E. Take note whether or not there is a center core (PVC pipe in center). As extra assurance you could count the pleats within the media (+/-4).
