Frequently Asked Questions
What filter cartridge does the Waterway Pro Clean 150 use?
The Waterway Pro Clean 150 uses the PJANCS150 (also sold as C-8414, all the same physical cartridge). Confirm the quantity in your owner's manual or by counting the cartridges in the housing when you open it up. Some Waterway models in the same series use a different number of cartridges than others.
How often should I replace the cartridge in my Waterway Pro Clean 150?
150 sq ft is plenty of media. With balanced water chemistry, the cartridge in a Waterway Pro Clean 150 should run 18 to 24 months before it needs replacing. Watch the pressure gauge: an 8 to 10 psi rise above the clean starting pressure is the practical "time to clean or replace" threshold. If a soak in cleaner won't bring the pressure back down anymore, the media is gone.
How do I clean the filter cartridge in a Waterway Pro Clean 150?
Turn the pump off and bleed the pressure from the filter tank (open the air relief valve at the top). Then open the housing and pull the cartridge. Hose them down at a 45-degree angle between the pleats, working top to bottom. For a deeper clean every few months, soak in a pool filter cleaner solution per the product's dwell instructions, then rinse before reinstalling. Don't use a pressure washer. The high pressure tears pleats permanently.
