About This Item

The Hayward Cartridge Element (CX2020RE) is the OEM replacement filter cartridge element for the StarClear 200 sq ft cartridge filter, designed to restore your filter to its original factory-specified performance.

What It Does

The CX2020RE seats directly inside the StarClear C2002 filter tank, capturing debris, oils, and fine particulates as pool water passes through the pleated filter media. Replacing a worn or clogged element with the genuine Hayward part ensures the filter operates at its rated 200 sq ft filtration area, maintaining proper flow rates and water clarity without compromising the integrity of the filter housing.

Compatibility is based on Hayward parts documentation and available OEM records. This is not an exhaustive list. For certainty, verify the part number in your filter's manual or on the original cartridge before ordering.

Poolaroo Pro Tip

Before ordering, measure your existing element's length and outer diameter and compare against your filter's spec sheet — a worn cartridge can compress slightly over time and appear shorter than a new one. When it's time to clean, rinse the pleats with a garden hose working top to bottom (never a pressure washer, which damages the media). For embedded sunscreen and body oils, soak the element overnight in a dedicated cartridge filter cleaner before rinsing. Replacing the element at the first sign of reduced pressure improvement after cleaning — rather than running it until it fails — keeps your StarClear performing at its full 200 sq ft rated capacity.
