Designed to fit the TURBRO FlowMind FM530 above-ground pool cartridge filter pump, this 5-1/4" x 4" replacement filter helps maintain cleaner, clearer pool water by filtering out sediment, rust, fine sand, and other suspended particles. For consistent filtration, we suggest replacing the filter every two weeks depending on usage, and the 9-pack provides a convenient supply for the recommended replacement schedule. Its tri-layer construction combines a non-woven fabric outer layer to capture debris and sand, a polypropylene inner backbone for added structural integrity, and an internal plastic mesh grid that helps prevent the filter from collapsing under heavy water pressure from the pool filter pump. When it’s time for a replacement, installation is quick and tool-free: simply turn the filter pump cover (not included) counterclockwise to open, remove the old filter, insert the new one, and tighten the cover clockwise to close.
