Pool Filter for Residential Pools
This Dayton pool filter uses a single-element cartridge design to remove debris from circulating water. It connects to standard 1 1/2 inch intake and discharge pipes for straightforward installation. The unit includes the filter element and stands 42.8 inches tall overall.
Replacing Worn Cartridge Filters
The filter provides a maximum flow rate of 100.8 gpm across 101 square feet of filter area. An 8-hour turnover capacity of 48,396 gallons supports pools up to 65,000 gallons. The jump is worth it when the existing cartridge no longer maintains clear water at the rated flow per square foot of 1 gpm.
Check Pipe Size and Pump Compatibility
Verify that the plumbing uses 1 1/2 inch connections on both suction and return lines. Confirm the pump is a pool or spa type rated for the filter's flow characteristics. Ensure sufficient vertical clearance exists for the 42.8 inch height and that the cartridge model CF100 is the correct replacement element.

Questions about this item
What pipe size does the 1 1/2 in intake and discharge require for the pool filter?
The filter connects to 1 1/2 in compatible intake and discharge pipes, matching standard pool and spa pump plumbing.
How do you install the single-element cartridge, and what step is often missed?
Insert the included filter element into the housing, secure the lid, then prime the pump to purge air before starting — skipping priming causes loss of flow.
When should the cartridge be replaced given the 101 sq ft filter area and 1 gpm per sq ft flow?
Replace the cartridge when pressure rises 8–10 psi above the clean baseline or after each 8-hour turnover of 48,396 gal, typically every 1–2 seasons.
