Nitrile rubber resists UV, ozone, and the chemical exposure typical of pond water, but it still hardens and loses compression over years of seasonal use. When the filter develops slow weeping at the housing joint, this OEM replacement O-ring typically resolves it.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003ctable\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e \u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eCompatible Models\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003eUltima II 1,000, 2,000, 4,000, 6,000, 10,000, 15,000, 20,000 gal\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eLocation\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003ePrimary housing-to-valve connection\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003ctr\u003e \u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e \u003ctd\u003ePremium nitrile rubber, UV and chemical resistant\u003c\/td\u003e \u003c\/tr\u003e \u003c\/table\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDiagnosis and Replacement\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eA slow drip at the housing joint during normal operation or after backwash points to a compressed or cracked O-ring. Shut down the filter and drain the tank. Remove the bolts securing the housing, lift the top away, and inspect the O-ring groove. A darkened, hard, or visibly cracked O-ring needs replacement. Before seating the new O-ring, inspect the mating surface for scratches or gouges and smooth any rough spots. Apply a light coat of silicone grease to the new O-ring before pressing it into the groove.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003ePreventive Maintenance\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eInspect this O-ring annually at spring startup and replace it every 5 to 8 years regardless of condition.
