Product details

The Pentair Clean & Clear Plus 320 is a four cartridge filter for inground pools, model EC-160340. Its 320 sq ft of filter area comes from four elements rather than one, which means more surface to trap dirt and longer stretches between cleanings.

Fine filtration

The cartridge elements strip particles down to about 20 microns. An average grain of beach sand is around 1,000 microns, so the filter is catching debris far below what the eye can pick out in the water.

Cleaning

There is no backwash. Open the top, lift the cartridges out, hose them down and put them back. No water goes to waste and no backwash line is needed at the pad.

In the box

The filter ships complete with its cartridges, a pressure gauge, a union kit and an air relief valve, so it is ready to plumb in.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

What comes with the filter?
The tank with its four cartridges, a pressure gauge, a union kit and an air relief valve.
How do I clean it?
Open the top, remove the cartridges, hose them off and put them back. There is no backwash cycle and no water sent to waste.
How fine does it filter?
Down to about 20 microns. For scale, an average grain of beach sand is about 1,000 microns.
Why four cartridges?
Four elements give 320 sq ft of surface area, so the filter captures more dirt and runs longer between cleanings than a smaller single element filter.
