Description

The Polaris R0898000 is the general purpose canister for the cleaner, the genuine Fluidra made OEM part.

General purpose versus fine filter

Polaris offers two canisters. This one is the general purpose version, the one most owners run day to day, sized for leaves and the ordinary mix of debris that lands in a pool. A separate fine filter canister is available for pools where the problem is silt, dust or plaster fines rather than leaves.

When to replace it

Canisters take a beating. Once one cracks, splits or stops sealing properly, whatever the cleaner picks up simply washes back out, and the cleaner looks like it has stopped working when the canister is the real fault.
