Q: I just had this filter installed and was given cs100e cartridge ever since installation I’m struggling with a green pool that can’t be fixed and low water flow. I saw that the correct cartridge is cx100xre could that be the reason for these issue?

A:
Hi, the CX100XRE is the correct REPLACEMENT cartridge. The CS100E is the correct cartridge for a new filter. Try cleaning the cartridge. If that does not work, consider contacting the installer for help with the issues you are having.
