EDIT: I have a Pentair 100sq ft filter and I need to replace the inside cartridge filter. Do I get another pentair or a generic one made by Dolphin?
Any other brads to try?
thanks

How important is keeping your existing plumbing in place?
Are you wanting or needing a larger filter?
Having ask all that, I'd be looking at a larger filter.

Is this the Pentair clean and clear 100 filter?
OEM numbers R173215, 59054200
Filbur Number NFC0686
Unicel Number C-9410
Pleatco number PAP100
The generic brand of Dolphin filters may be manufactured by Pleatco.
Do you know a part number on the Dolphin filter?
When shopping for replacement cartridges, the 4 oz media filters will last longer than the standard 3 oz media.

Poolschoolgrad said:The cartridge in the link will work with your filter.
The cartridge in the link is the micro ban model.
The regular 4 oz/yd cartridge without micro ban is about 25% less.
MICROBAN worth it?
Thanks! Love this site!!!!Poolschoolgrad said:MICROBAN worth it?
In South Florida, you probably operate your pool year round.
If you properly balance the water in your pool, there should be no problems with algae, mildew, etc inside your filter.
In areas of the country where the filter is removed from the pool and stored or simply not used for several months of the year, the microban can help to prevent the growth of mold, mildew, and should extend the life of the filter.
