Fluidra - Filter Base for Artic Plus Sand Filter Ø950 mm

Fluidra – Filter Base for Artic Plus Sand Filter Ø950 mm

This is the genuine Fluidra replacement filter base designed specifically for the Artic Plus laminated sand filter in the 950 mm diameter variant. The base forms the structural lower section of the filter tank, supporting the internal pipework and collector arm assembly while providing a stable, leak-free platform for the entire filtration unit. It is an essential structural spare for restoring a damaged or worn filter to full working order.

Compatibility

This filter base is engineered exclusively for the Fluidra Artic Plus sand filter range in the Ø950 mm diameter configuration (product references 36055 and 36056). It is not interchangeable with the smaller Ø650 mm or Ø800 mm variants or with other filter ranges. Always verify your filter’s diameter and model reference before ordering.

Why Genuine Matters

Manufactured from reinforced polypropylene (PP), this OEM base meets Fluidra’s original material and dimensional specifications, ensuring a precise fit with ACME-threaded connections and compatibility with the internal PVC pipework and fittings. The Artic Plus operates at up to 2.5 bar working pressure, making an accurately rated, properly sealed base critical for safe and reliable long-term operation. Generic alternatives may not meet these pressure or dimensional tolerances.

Installation

Replacement of the filter base requires draining the filter tank, disconnecting all pipework, and reassembling the internal collector arm system before refitting the tank. Due to the size and weight of the Ø950 mm vessel and the pressure-rated connections involved, this work is best carried out by a qualified pool technician. Ensure all EPDM gaskets and seals are inspected and replaced as required during the repair.
