FAQs
How often should I clean my FF-C-8475 filter?
It is recommended to rinse the filter every 2 to 4 weeks depending on spa usage, with a deeper chemical cleaning every 3 months.
Is this filter compatible with my current model?
The FF-C-8475 is a direct replacement for Unicel C-8475, Pleatco PCS75N, and Filbur FC-3320.
What are the physical dimensions of this filter?
The filter is 13 inches long, has an 8-inch outside diameter, and features a 2-1/16 inch open top.
Can I use a pressure washer to clean the filter?
No, high-pressure washers can damage the delicate trilobal fabric. A standard garden hose with a spray nozzle is recommended.
Does this filter contain BPA or lead?
No, the FF-C-8475 is constructed from materials that are entirely lead-free and BPA-free.
How long will this filter last?
With proper maintenance and cleaning, the filter is designed to last up to 12 months.
Troubleshooting
Water flow is significantly reduced.
Check the filter for heavy sediment buildup and perform a thorough rinse or chemical cleaning.
Cloudy water despite new filter.
Verify that water chemistry (pH and alkalinity) is balanced, as filtration alone cannot fix poor water chemistry.
Filter housing won't close.
Verify the filter length (13 inches) and confirm the 2-inch male slip bottom is correctly aligned with the housing port.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before installation, ensure your pump is turned off and the pressure is relieved from the system. Insert the cartridge into the filter housing, ensuring the 2-inch male slip bottom is securely seated. The FF-C-8475 is compatible with Unicel C-8475, Pleatco PCS75N, and Filbur FC-3320. To maintain the filter, remove it periodically and rinse it thoroughly with a garden hose, spraying between the pleats. Avoid using high-pressure power washers, as they can damage the trilobal fabric. For deep cleaning, soak the filter in an approved pool filter cleaning solution to dissolve accumulated oils and minerals.
