Tier1 Pool Filter Cartridge Replacement for Hayward CC1750 — 23-5/16" x 8-15/16", high-flow trilobal media for longer run times

The Tier1 Replacement for Hayward CC1750 is a direct-fit pool filter cartridge engineered to restore clear water by trapping fine debris while maintaining steady flow and pump protection.

This Tier1 cartridge is built as an affordable, high-performance substitute for Hayward CC1750-compatible filters. Precision dimensions and a robust internal core ensure it seats securely in compatible housings, while advanced trilobal filter fibers pick up more dirt and hair than conventional round-fiber cartridges. It’s independently tested to recognized industry protocols for filtration reliability and is designed to work with a wide range of Hayward-style systems.

How does this cartridge improve pool clarity without restricting flow?

The cartridge uses a high‑flow internal core and layered trilobal media to balance filtration efficiency with unrestricted water circulation. The media traps finer particles, and the core maintains a steady passage for water so pumps aren’t overworked.

• Trilobal fibers capture up to 40% more debris compared to round fibers.
• Internal high‑flow core preserves pump performance and consistent pressure.
• Layered pleats increase surface area for longer run times between cleanings.

Will this fit my Hayward X-Stream or similar system?

Yes — the cartridge is sized and shaped to replace Hayward CC1750-style cartridges and a range of equivalent aftermarket models. Verify measurements against your existing cartridge before ordering to ensure compatibility.

• Overall dimensions: 23-5/16" tall by 8-15/16" diameter for a secure fit.
• Direct replacements include CCX1750-RE, X-Stream CC1750, and similar part numbers.
• Cross-references: Pleatco PXST175, Filbur FC-1287, Unicel C-8317, Waterway 817-0150N.

How durable is the cartridge and what testing supports it?

This Tier1 replacement is manufactured for repeated wet/dry cycles and structural stability under normal pool operating pressures. Independent testing to NSF 50–style standards validates its filtration performance and longevity benchmarks.

• Engineered pleat spacing resists collapse and maintains flow paths.
• Materials selected for chlorine tolerance and dimensional stability.
• Independently tested protocols confirm consistent particle capture and durability.

How should I maintain and replace this filter cartridge?

Routine rinsing with a hose and periodic deep cleaning will extend life; replace when pleats show permanent staining, tears, or a sustained rise in system pressure. Proper maintenance keeps filtration efficient and reduces strain on pumps and heaters.

• Rinse weekly to remove surface debris; deep-clean with compatible cartridge cleaner monthly or as needed.
• Inspect pleats and core for damage whenever you service the filter housing.
• Replace immediately if you notice reduced flow, excessive dirt retention, or physical damage.

Who is this for: Pool owners and service professionals running Hayward-style cartridge systems who want an economical, high‑flow replacement that captures more fine debris without compromising pump performance. It’s particularly suitable for residential pools, spas, and commercial systems using compatible cartridge sizes that require NSF‑tested reliability and straightforward maintenance.
