Please disregard previous question. This is the correct cartridge for Filter model # C12002. Just looked smaller in box. 23 in is replacing 23in. Old ones are not 28 in. Thank you

Hi Paula, yes this is the correct replacement cartridge filter element for the Hayward Star-Clear model C12002 which is approximately 23 inches in length.

Our Hayward star clear plus filter Model#C12002 came with 28 in cartridge. Is this 23 in cartridge the correct replacement for it? We are confused because of the 5 in differences.
Reply
Hi Paula, If you do have the C12002 Hayward Filter then this will indeed be the proper replacement cartridge. This is what you will need.

Hi Rob, Does your current cartridge measure 23-3/8" in length, 4" inside hole diameter and 9" outside diameter? If so than this is the correct replacement cartridge. If not then could you send us a few photos of your filter? A close of the label on the filter tank, and a wide shot of the complete filter.

My filter cartridge says it is a Hayward C1200e. All the replacements say they replace an "re" filter. Companies don't print different letters on filters for no reason, (as the kid at my local pool place suggests.) What is the difference between an "e" and an "re" cartridge filter?
Reply
Hi, Ron. The "re" is replacement the original that came with the unit "e".

Will this filter work on model C12002 Hayward? thank you.

How do you identify the top from the bottom of this filter. Will it fit in my c1200 with either end down

Hi, JC. This cartridge will fit your C1200 canister. This cartridge does not have a distinctive top or bottom.

My filter is a c1200e, is it different than a c1200?

Hi John, Yes this cartridge will be the correct replacement for a C1200E filter, there is no difference between the C1200E and C1200 filter.

I have a Hayward C1200E cartridge. I see replacement cartridges for C1200RE but not for C1200E. What is the replacement cartridge for the C1200E? What is the difference between the E and the RE?
Reply
Hi Laura, This cartridge would be the correct replacement cartridge for your Hayward C1200E cartridge, the C1200E and C1200RE are the same cartridges.

What is the reason for 15-20 micron in a pool application? Would 120 micron be detrimental? Currently using the CX1200RE
Reply
Hi, Patrick. The ability to filter the water in your pool keeping it cleaned. A 120 Micron can be detrimental if the pool is not effectively sanitized. A filter is one of the most important pieces of equipment needed for a healthy, clean pool.

Can this be uses with a filter for 200sq ft cartridge ( same dimensions )
Reply
Hello Rob, in theory, yes you could used it in a larger filter; but we suggest that you do not. The main concern is that the smaller cartridge has a lower flowrate than the 200 sq ft cartridge which may restrict water flow or damage the cartridge. Also, the cartridge is smaller you will need to cleaner the cartridge more often.

When the filter gets old, the pressure increases more quickly and therefore the cartridge needs cleaning more frequently. Living in south Florida, things are blooming all of the time. The pollen from certain palm trees really clogs up the cartridge. Easy fix is to replace the cartridge.

I have a need to replace my filter cartridge and in need of getting one at the local pool store. I was browsing on line and came across INYOPools.com and found a compatible filter (Hayward C-1200 (PA120)(C-8412) for my Hayward filter. Ordered it online with a competitive price and the cartridge was shipped in less time than expected. Replaced my old filter cartridge (no tool needed) and has been cleaning it every week or two. The filter picked up a lot of inserts that were captured. I was happy with the purchase and I end up ordering another one for spare. They had sent me a $10 discount coupon for my purchase.

MEASURE the filter in your tank - refer to that when ordering. My old Hayward had C 1750 on it HOWEVER that was too tall for my filter tank. Fortunately I ordered this one that is shorter and it fit just fine. I will say that INYO Pools did refund my money for the cartridge that was too tall, minus the $ 24.00 I spent shipping the wrong filter back - THANK YOU.

It is so much cheaper to order your pool filter through INYOpools. Your current filter has a part number on it. Simply enter that into the search and order the filter you need. It only takes a few days for it to arrive. From there you simply swap it out with your existing pool filter and you're all set. When I went to my local pool store, it was $27 more to buy the filter there. I would imagine having your pool cleaning company replace the filter would cost even more. Why pay that extra money and drive all the way to the pool store, when they can just show up on your front porch.

Called INYO pools, which put me in touch with tech support. Diagnosed the UV Rays of the Sun had degraded the base area where the bleeder valve screws down to make cartridge filter top cap water tight. Cheaply designed, Hayward did not beef up the base thick enough to prevent failure by cracking. Ordered new cartridge filter from INYO, along with an exorbitantly expensive star clear model housing cap. Put in the filter, which was INYO brand and worked great after installing the completely new housing cap. Job done in less than an hour!

Pros: Just as described.
Cons: There is one pool filter with two different cartridges. Not the fault of cartridge company though.
This cartridge worked perfect for our pool filter. I had a hard time finding a cartridge to fit the pool filter and then when I ordered it, it turned out that my pool filter had two different cartridges for that model. Needless to say I ended up getting the wrong one, had to send them back and contact customer support to get the correct one sent.

Great cartridge. It does just as good, if not a better job, than those super expensive brands at the local pool shops. I always buy my pool supplies from InyoPools, their prices and service are by far the best in the industry!
