Pentair Posi-Clear RP Filters - 1 Year Warranty

Single Cartridge Filter System with Radial Pleat and Side-Entry Design

The Pentair Posi-Clear™ RP Filter delivers top-of-the-line single-cartridge filter performance to keep your pool water sparkling clear. Its innovative side-entry design optimizes flow for nearly 50% greater efficiency than many other single-cartridge filters. The Posi-Clear RP traps particles as small as 20 microns, ensuring pristine water quality with minimal maintenance and enhanced energy efficiency, making it an Eco Select® brand choice for its environmentally responsible design.

  • Superior Water Clarity: Traps fine debris and particles down to 20 microns for exceptionally clear water.
  • Highly Efficient Design: Side-entry port and radial pleat cartridge maximize filtration area and flow efficiency, reducing energy costs.
  • Easy Maintenance: Features a quick-connect lock ring with safety latches for easy, tool-free access to the single cartridge for simple rinsing with a garden hose. No backwashing is needed.
  • Durable Construction: Single-piece, fiberglass-reinforced polypropylene tank ensures strength, durability, and corrosion resistance.
  • User-Friendly: Includes a High-Flow™ manual air relief valve and an easy-to-use 1-1/2" drain for quick maintenance and winterization.

Key features and operational notes for Pentair Posi-Clear™ RP Filters:

  • Radial Pleat Cartridge: The single, large-diameter cartridge with radial pleats provides a large surface area for effective dirt capture and long filter cycles.
  • No-Tool Servicing: The innovative lock-ring design allows for quick and safe access to the cartridge without the need for tools.
  • Coreless Cartridge: Simplifies the cleaning process; simply remove and rinse with a garden hose.
  • Integrated Air Relief: Continuous internal air relief works with the manual High-Flow™ air relief valve to maintain optimum filtration efficiency by eliminating trapped air.
  • Raised Inlet Port (on some designs): Can enhance hydraulic efficiency and utilize the entire height of the cartridge for filtration, contributing to its high efficiency.
  • Plumbing: Typically equipped with 2" x 2-1/2" plumbing or easy spin-on unions for straightforward installation and maximum flow.

⚠️ Safety & Compliance Notes

Filter Operates Under High Pressure:

  • **CRITICAL:** Before performing any service (opening the filter, cleaning the cartridge, adjusting the clamp), ALWAYS turn OFF the pool pump and relieve ALL pressure from the system by opening the filter's manual air relief valve. Wait until the pressure gauge reads zero. Failure to do so can result in the filter lid separating with violent force, causing severe injury, death, or property damage.
  • Never attempt to assemble, disassemble, or adjust the filter clamp or lid while the pump is running or the system is pressurized.
  • Stand clear of the filter during system start-up and shut-down.

Proper Installation and Maintenance:

  • Installation and significant maintenance should be performed by a qualified pool service professional in accordance with all applicable local codes and Pentair's instructions.
  • Ensure the filter clamp ring is properly seated and secured according to the owner's manual before operating.

Electrical Safety (Related to Pool System):

  • Always disconnect electrical power to the pool pump at the main circuit breaker before servicing the filter or any connected pool equipment. Ensure the circuit is locked out or tagged to prevent accidental startup.

California Proposition 65 Warning:

  • This product, and components used in pool systems, may expose you to chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information, visit www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Pentair Posi-Clear™ RP Filter

This cartridge filter unit was way cheaper here than anywhere else I looked. Delivered the next day to my home in Temple Terrace. I know they don't install, but I was replacing the exact same model so it was an easy swap for me.
