Ft.","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"pz-pdp\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOverview\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Unicel C-8600 is a pleated polyester cartridge filter element engineered for medium-capacity residential and light commercial single-cartridge filter systems, delivering 80 sq ft of effective filtration area through a Reemay nonwoven polyester media pack on a rigid central core configuration. The element features injection-molded ABS end caps — closed bottom, open-flow top — bonded with chemically resistant adhesive for sustained service under standard pool water chemistry. Media specification is nominal 20-micron filtration efficiency under standard test conditions. Construction is rated for continuous service up to 104°F and standard residential operating pressures, with end cap geometry held to OEM dimensional tolerances for confirmed bypass-free seating in compatible housings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eService interval recommendation for residential applications: pressure-differential-based replacement triggered at ΔP ≥ 8–10 PSI above clean-filter operating baseline, or on an annual calendar cycle, whichever occurs first. Interim maintenance protocol: rinse every 4–6 weeks; chemical soak with TSP or enzyme cleaner every 3–6 months to remove oils, surfactants, and biofilm that resist water rinsing. For calcium scale accumulation, the ABS end cap construction is compatible with muriatic acid soak at 1:20 dilution (20 minutes maximum exposure); rinse thoroughly with fresh water before reinstallation and verify operating pressure post-installation. Polyester media tolerates continuous operation at ≤ 10 ppm free available chlorine; enzyme cleaners compatible without restriction. Standard Unicel 90-day manufacturing defect warranty applies through authorized distribution.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour order includes the selected quantity of replacement pool filter cartridges.
