Pentair PENTAIR 160318 Pentair 160318 Pool Filter (Open Box)

I recently had a pool service out to do some work and the technician mentioned that I should consider replacing my filter because my previous one looked like it was at the end of its lifespan. I am not the most handy person in the world but the technician gave me valuable advice and told me to save money on having a new one professionally installed because the newer models used the same hookups. He also suggested upgrading to the CC200 model (I previously had the CC150 model). I purchased this and it arrived next day and in great shape. I was able to disconnect and reconnect this one in less than an hour. I ran into a slight issue, that was my own doing, in that the O ring was not set properly in one of the pipe hookups, which led to initial leaking, but after disconnecting and reconnecting after adjusting the O ring then no more issue. Filter is running great and I'm glad I took the technician's advise and saved a few hundred dollars by buying and hooking this up myself, was very easy and has been running great.
