The Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL is a replacement pleated pool and spa filter cartridge sold in a convenient 2-pack. It is engineered as a direct replacement for Pentair Clean & Clear Plus 420 systems and is cross-compatible with Pentair R173578, Unicel C-7470, Filbur FC-1978, and Pleatco PCC105-PAK4. Each cartridge measures approximately 25-5/16" in length with a 7" outer diameter, providing 105 sq. ft. of filtration area per cartridge (420 sq. ft. total in a 4-cartridge system).
What micron rating does the Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL offer and what does it filter out?This Tier1 pleated cartridge features a 20-micron filtration rating, which effectively captures fine debris such as dirt, dust, pollen, algae particles, body oils, sunscreen residue, and other contaminants that cloud pool and spa water. The reinforced Reemay pleated polyester media provides deep-dirt holding capacity while maintaining strong water flow, keeping your Clean & Clear Plus 420 system running efficiently.
How long does the Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL filter last before replacement?With proper maintenance, the Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL typically lasts 12 to 15 months in residential pool applications. To maximize filter life, rinse the cartridges every 2–4 weeks with a garden hose and perform a deep chemical soak every 3–6 months to dissolve oils, scale, and mineral buildup. Heavy bather loads, high pollen seasons, or poor water chemistry may shorten the cartridge lifespan.
Is the Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL NSF certified?The Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL is manufactured in an ISO 9001 certified facility using premium-grade Reemay pleated media and durable polypropylene end caps. While pool and spa cartridges are not typically NSF/ANSI 42 or 53 certified (those standards apply to drinking water), this Tier1 cartridge is built to meet or exceed OEM performance specifications for Pentair Clean & Clear Plus 420 filter housings.
Why should I replace all four cartridges at once in my Clean & Clear Plus 420 system?The Pentair Clean & Clear Plus 420 uses a 4-cartridge configuration, and all four filters should be replaced at the same time to ensure balanced flow, even pressure distribution, and consistent filtration performance. Since the Tier1 DPFPCC0021M13DTL is sold as a 2-pack, you'll need two 2-packs (or a 4-pack) to fully replace your system. Mixing old and new cartridges can cause premature clogging of the new filters and uneven wear.
