Jandy® Pool Filter Cartridge Buying Guide

Identify your CL, CV, CS, or Pro Series cartridge and match the right replacement.

This guide helps you identify which cartridge your Jandy® filter takes and when it is due for replacement. The filter model on the tank label tells you the cartridge family; the part number on the end cap confirms the exact size.

How to identify your Jandy® filter cartridge

  1. Check the end cap and tank label. Jandy® housings print the filter model (CL, CV, CS, or Pro Series) on the tank label, and the cartridge part number is printed on an end cap; either one pins down the replacement size.
  2. Match the number. Every Excel Filters product page lists the OEM part numbers and housings it replaces, plus the matching Pleatco, Unicel, and Filbur cross-reference numbers. You can also look up any part number on our cross-reference chart.
  3. No legible number? Measure outer diameter, length, and both end caps — our how to measure your filter cartridge guide walks through each dimension.

Have your number? to jump straight to the matching replacement.

Cleaning and replacing your Jandy® cartridge

Rinse the cartridge with a garden hose every few weeks during swim season, spraying at an angle to flush debris from between the pleats. Deep-clean with a cartridge cleaning solution at least once a season to remove the oils and scale rinsing leaves behind — our care and maintenance guide covers the full routine. Most cartridges last 12 to 24 months: replace yours when cleaning no longer restores water flow, the pleats fray or stay discolored, or an end cap cracks.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I find the right Jandy® replacement filter cartridge?
