These are the most common wear points on a pressure filter, since they are handled every time the system is connected or disconnected for seasonal maintenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMatched Sizing for a Tight Seal\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PF4800 and PF7200 use multiple fitting sizes depending on the plumbing configuration of your system, and using the correct size is essential for a leak-free connection. Repeated seasonal disconnection, combined with UV exposure and freeze-thaw cycling, gradually cracks the threads or hose barbs on the original fittings. A worn fitting typically shows up as a slow weep or spray at the connection point even when the hose clamp or union nut is fully tightened.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompatible With\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePondMax PF4800 and PF7200 Pressure Filters\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSizes Available\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 1\/4\", 1 1\/2\", 2\" (32 mm, 38 mm, 50 mm)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePVC fitting body\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDrain the filter and disconnect the plumbing before removing the worn fitting from the filter port.
