Product Overview

The Pentair 170026 top manifold is a critical internal component used in Clean & Clear Plus 240 cartridge filters and compatible Quad D.E. filter systems. Installed above the cartridge elements, the manifold directs incoming water evenly through each filter cartridge, allowing debris and contaminants to be captured efficiently before the water returns to the pool circulation system.

Proper water distribution is essential for maintaining filtration efficiency and preventing uneven loading of the filter cartridges. The manifold also connects to the standpipe assembly, which routes filtered water back to the outlet plumbing. Replacing a worn or damaged top manifold helps restore balanced filtration flow and ensures reliable operation of the Pentair Clean & Clear Plus 240 filtration system.
