Cryspool 19" Spa Filter 08017 – 125 sq ft Trilobal Fiber Cartridge, Replaces 6540-488

The Cryspool 08017 is a 19-inch replacement spa filter that restores clear, debris-free water by using advanced trilobal fiber pleats for improved filtration and easier cleaning.

Whether you’re maintaining a Sundance, Capri, Palermo, or other compatible hot tub, the Cryspool 08017 spa filter is engineered to fit common OEM bays while offering upgraded materials and a long service life. Built with a 125 sq. ft. effective filtration area and a robust trilobal fiber structure, this cartridge replaces part numbers such as 6540-488, PSD125-2000, and C-8326. It’s intended as a direct, independent-brand replacement to improve particle capture and simplify routine maintenance.

How does the Cryspool 08017 improve water clarity?

The filter’s trilobal fiber pleats increase surface area and trap finer particles compared with conventional point-bond fabrics. Water passes through multiple pleat layers, capturing debris while allowing steady flow.

• 125 sq. ft. filtration area for extended capture capacity
• Trilobal fibers designed for deeper particle entrapment
• Pleated construction that balances flow with filtration

Will this fit my spa model and plumbing fittings?

The Cryspool 08017 is sized to match many popular replacement part numbers and models, and includes common slip-fitting dimensions to match OEM housings. Verify your existing filter’s length and top/bottom connector sizes before ordering.

• Length: 19" and outer diameter: 8-7/16"
• Top: 1-1/2" male slip fitting, Bottom: 2-1/2" open with beveled edge
• Compatible references: 6540-488, PSD125-2000, C-8326 and similar units

How do I clean and maintain this cartridge to extend its life?

The improved trilobal fabric allows debris to penetrate into pleats, and rinsing restores much of its filtration performance. Regular cleaning when your pressure gauge reaches the recommended level preserves efficiency and reduces replacement frequency.

• Rinse with a high-pressure hose to remove embedded particles
• Use filter-cleaning solution periodically for deeper cleaning
• Inspect pleats and end caps; replace when material shows wear or damage

What makes Cryspool’s materials and construction different from cheaper cartridges?

Cryspool uses a trilobal fiber that increases dirt-holding capacity and resists rapid breakdown compared with basic point-bond fabrics. Stiffer pleats and secure end caps help the cartridge keep shape and stay seated during pump cycles.

• Advanced trilobal fiber for higher capacity and longer life
• Durable end caps and pleat formation to maintain sealing and shape
• Engineered for repeated cleaning without rapid degradation

Who this is for: The Cryspool 08017 is for hot tub owners, service technicians, and property managers who need an OEM-compatible replacement filter with improved longevity and particle capture. If you run a Sundance, Capri, Palermo, Bahia, Cayman, Lagunas model (or any spa referencing replacement numbers like 6540-488, PSD125-2000, or C-8326) and want easier maintenance with better filtration performance, this cartridge is a practical upgrade. Measure your existing filter to confirm the 19" length and the top/bottom fitting dimensions before purchasing to ensure correct fit and reliable operation.
