Read more about the Pentair Clean and Clear Plus 520

The Pentair Clean and Clear Plus CCP520 Cartridge Pool Filter is a 4 cartridge filtration system used on in ground pools. Capable of filtering particles as small as 30 microns, this means the filter is capable of pulling everything out that you can see with the human eye.The fiberglass-reinforced polypropylene tank, steel tension control clamp and 2" black bulkhead unions enhance its durability and ease of installation.

The Clean and Clear Plus 520 steel clamp uses a 7/8" brass barrel nut to tighten and loosen for easy removal and convenient access to each of the four cartridge filters. Internal air bleeding prevents air build-up from occurring, and its 1-1/2" drain ensures full draining during winterization. The Pentair Clean and Clear Plus CCP520 keeps pools sparkling and requires less maintenance for longer, better performance. Requires a 74" vertical clearance for installation.

    Love this cartridge filter!

    I’ve had a sand filter for 15 years. The past few years I’ve had one leak after another and replaced the multi port and various repairs multiple times. I ordered this filter , put in new plumbing, and 24 hours later I can’t believe I didn’t do this 5 years ago. Super quiet , nothing to leak. Crystal clear water. No backwashing. Highly recommend!

  • How long should a Pentair pool filter last?

    Pool Filter Life Pool filter cartridges can run for about 2,000 hours in a filter pump and should be replaced every 1-2 years. Note that the filter cartridge will not last as long due to sunscreen, deodorants, hair care products, and other chemicals that come into contact with your pool water.

    How often should I clean my Pentair cartridge filter?

    How To Guides - Pools. A commonly asked question amongst our customers is, “when should we clean our pool's filter cartridge?” Typically, we recommend that your cartridges inside your filter be cleaned every 3 months for longevity of your cartridges, as well as for better pool filtration and water flow.

    What size filter do I need for my pool?

    With pool filters, it's best to err on the larger size so it can handle the power of your pump. A helpful rule of thumb is to choose a filter with at least 1 square foot per 10,000 gallons pool capacity.

    Where is the model number on my pool filter?

    Every pool filter comes with a spec and model information sticker on its tank. This sticker lists the make and model, the list of sizes for that particular model, and their specs. The model number of your specific unit should be marked. The label should also list a serial number.
