D.E. filter element kits are model-specific — an incorrect kit will not seat properly in the tank. When servicing the element assembly, inspect the manifold and any associated O-rings at the same time; replacing worn seals during the same service interval prevents a second teardown.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- wft:processed:manual:2026-04-04 --\u003e","brand":"Pentair","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53960096284947,"sku":"196090","price":202.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0920\/0687\/5411\/files\/pentair-element-retro-kit-for-easyclean-ec90-d-e-filter-196090-6.webp?v=1789755751","url":"https:\/\/poolaroo.com\/products\/pentairwaterpoolandspainc_196090","provider":"Poolaroo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
