Unicel C-4607 Cartridge Filter – Type A & C Replacement
Reliable, High-Performance Filtration for Crystal-Clear Pool Water
Keeping your above-ground pool water clean is important for more than just looks. It helps create a safe, healthy, and fun swimming environment. The Unicel C-4607 Cartridge Filter is designed to provide excellent filtration for pools. It works with Type A & Type C filter cartridges. This includes many popular Intex and Summer Waves systems.
This replacement filter is known for its strong build, great dirt-trapping ability, and long-lasting use. It helps you spend more time swimming and less time cleaning. If you are tired of cloudy water or cheap filters that break quickly, the C-4607 is the upgrade for you.
Why Choose the Unicel C-4607 Cartridge Filter?
1. Premium Construction for Maximum Filtration
The C-4607 is made from strong spunbond polyester. This material is chosen for its strength, durability, and good filtration. Its uniform pleat structure maximizes surface area, allowing it to trap a wide range of contaminants including:
-
Fine dirt and dust particles
-
Leaves, bugs, and organic debris
-
Sunscreen oils and lotions
-
Algae spores and pollen
This level of filtration means your pool water will not only look cleaner but also feel more refreshing, while reducing strain on your pump and filtration system.
2. Perfect Replacement for Type A & Type C Filters
If your above-ground pool system uses Type A or Type C cartridges, the Unicel C-4607 is a drop-in replacement that installs in seconds. No modifications or special tools are required — simply remove your old filter, slide in the new one, and you’re ready to go.
Compatible with:
-
Intex pools using Type A/C filter cartridges
-
Summer Waves pools using Type A/C filter cartridges
-
Other above-ground systems designed for A/C filter sizes

3. Reusable and Easy to Maintain
Unlike disposable cartridges that need to be replaced frequently, the Unicel C-4607 is designed for multiple cleanings. Simply rinse it with a garden hose to remove debris, and it’s ready for another cycle. This reduces waste, saves money, and keeps your pool running efficiently.
Cleaning tip: For best results, rinse the cartridge every 1–2 weeks during peak season, and soak in a filter cleaning solution once per month to remove oils and fine particles.
4. Cost-Effective Pool Care
Investing in a high-quality filter like the Unicel C-4607 can actually save you money in the long run. Its extended lifespan means fewer replacements over the course of the summer, while its efficiency helps your pump run more effectively — potentially lowering energy costs.

Expert Tips for Getting the Most from Your Unicel C-4607
-
Rotate Cartridges – Keep two cartridges on hand and rotate them. This allows one to dry completely after cleaning, which can extend its life.
-
Avoid High-Pressure Sprayers – While rinsing is important, using too much pressure can damage the pleats. Stick to a garden hose spray nozzle.
-
Schedule Regular Cleaning – Even if water looks clear, clean your cartridge regularly to prevent unseen buildup.
-
Use a Skimmer Sock – This extra layer of filtration in your skimmer basket can catch large debris before it reaches your cartridge.
