I purchased new cartridge filters for my Hayward Swimclear. These are supposed to be direct replacements for original. Everything measured out fine, but the cartridges would not seat on the base. I placed them in the sun and was able to get them on the base, but then the alignment “spider” at the top of the filters would not go on so I went to remove the cartridges and on of the base pieces broke. I’ll need to buy and install a new one and wonder if it’s a difficult job. It’s too late to return cartridges, any suggestions on getting them to fit properly? I thought about filing down the edges a bit to see if that will work. Any ideas? Thank you.
