7" Diameter 81 SqFt Swimclear C3025/C3030 Cartridge Element
Product Overview
A precision-engineered 81 sq. ft. replacement element that reliably restores flow and clarity in Hayward SwimClear systems.
The Super-Pro FC-1225 is the standard specification cartridge element engineered for Hayward SwimClear C3025 and C3030 filter housings. Delivering 81 sq. ft. of dense filtration area per element, this 7-inch diameter cartridge uses reinforced spunbond polyester media to trap fine particulate without collapsing under pressure. When running a four-cartridge system, swapping in fresh Super-Pro FC-1225 elements immediately relieves system backpressure and restores water turnover.

When To Use This
Pro Tip
Always replace all four cartridges in your C3025 or C3030 cluster at the same time; mixing old, clogged elements with new ones causes uneven flow distribution and accelerates wear on the fresh cartridges.
Common Questions & Instructions
How many FC-1225 cartridges are needed for a SwimClear C3025 or C3030 filter?
Hayward SwimClear C3025 and C3030 filter housings use a cluster of four 81 sq. ft. cartridges, such as the Super-Pro FC-1225, to provide a combined 325 sq. ft. of total filtration surface.
When should I replace the Super-Pro FC-1225 cartridge element?
Replace your cartridges when system pressure remains 8-10 PSI above clean baseline after washing, or if you observe frayed fabric, broken bands, or cracked end caps.
How often should these filter cartridges be cleaned during the season?
In our experience, rinse your elements every 4 to 8 weeks, or whenever the tank pressure gauge rises 8-10 PSI over your initial clean operating pressure.
