Pentair Sta-Rite S8M150 System 3 Modular Media Pool Filter 450 Sq Ft
Pentair Sta-Rite S8M150 System 3 Modular Media Pool Filter 450 Sq Ft
Tired of constantly dealing with reduced flow as debris builds up? The Sta-Rite S8M150 System 3 Modular Media Pool Filter delivers powerful filtration and less maintenance. The 450 square feet of filtration area captures more dirt and debris. Additionally, this high-capacity cartridge filter maintains strong water flow for large residential pools. Its modular media design extends the time between cleanings and helps your pool stay clearer with less effort.
Why is the Sta-Rite S8M150 System 3 filter better than standard cartridge or sand filters?
The Sta-Rite S8M150 provides exceptional filtration capacity and less maintenance than standard cartridge, sand, or DE filters. Its oversized 450 sq ft modular media design allows more debris to be captured before pressure rises. Therefore, the pool filter extends longer run times between cleanings and more consistent water flow for large residential pools.

I ran a search using bing to try and find someone that carried this pool filter and at a better price than what I had seen in other searches. This particular filter was hard to find. This was the most reasonable price though, so I purchased it. The purchase was trouble-free and the product was delivered quickly.

FAQ
Our expert staff answers customer's most asked questions.
What are Trade Grade products and how does their warranty differ?
Trade Grade products are Pentair items that must be purchased from a retail store, pool builder, or pool service company to receive extended warranty coverage. These products can receive a one-year, two-year, or three-year warranty. If purchased online, they only receive a sixty-day limited warranty.
How does the warranty differ for products purchased online?
Products purchased from an Authorized Pentair Online Reseller (with product codes beginning with EC-) receive a one-year parts-only warranty from the purchase date. Exceptions include IntelliChlor cells and IntelliFlo SVRS pumps, which receive a two-year parts-only warranty. These products are not eligible for the bundled three-year extended warranty.
How often should I drain my pool?
It is recommended to drain your pool every three years to eliminate accumulated chemicals and dust. This varies depending on many environmental conditions like fill water and the type of chlorination you are using. Our advice is to have your water tested before and after by a local pool professional.
