Zodiac – CS 250 Replacement Filter Cartridge Element 250 sq ft

This is the genuine Zodiac replacement filter cartridge element for the Jandy CS 250 pool cartridge filter. Manufactured to original Fluidra specifications, it restores your CS 250 filter to full performance and delivers fine filtration down to 10–20 microns — finer than a standard sand filter. It is an essential service part to maintain clean, clear pool water and extend the life of your filtration system.

Compatibility

This cartridge element is designed specifically for the Zodiac Jandy CS 250 single-element cartridge filter (CS250). It is a direct, drop-in replacement requiring no modification. Always verify your filter model before ordering, as the CS series is available in multiple sizes (100, 150, 200 and 250 sq ft) and cartridge elements are not interchangeable between sizes.

Why genuine matters

Genuine Zodiac cartridge elements are made from high-quality reinforced Remay polyester material, internationally recognised for superior filtration efficiency and long service life. The precise pleat geometry and end-cap dimensions ensure a perfect seal inside the CS 250 filter body, preventing bypass of unfiltered water. Third-party alternatives may not match these tolerances, risking reduced filtration quality and potential filter damage.

Cleaning & maintenance

Unlike sand filters, the CS 250 cartridge system requires no backwashing, saving thousands of litres of water per year. To clean, simply remove the cartridge element from the filter body and hose it down thoroughly. Periodic use of a dedicated cartridge filter cleaner helps dissolve oils and mineral deposits, extending the life of the element between replacements.
