About This Item

The Pleatco Advanced PWW50P3 is a precision-engineered replacement filter cartridge designed for the Waterway Front Access Skimmer. Built with Pleatco Point Bonded Pool Filtration Fabric, it delivers consistent pore structure throughout the cartridge's service life — resisting channeling and maintaining reliable filtration cycle after cycle. With a 6" outer diameter, open-top handle configuration, and 1½" SAE bottom opening, this cartridge fits the Waterway housing exactly as specified by the manufacturer.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Full Filter Service Requires 2 Cartridges
Your Waterway Front Access Skimmer requires 2 cartridges for a complete service. Replacing both cartridges at the same time ensures consistent flow, balanced filtration, and full filter efficiency. Add 2 units to your cart to complete your filter service.
