        1. Measure the outside diameter of the end cap. Be sure to use exact measurement (+ or – 1\/32″).<\/li>\n
        2. Measure the existing cartridge length. The length is calculated from end cap to end cap and should be exact (+ or – 1\/16″). Be sure to exclude any handles or extensions from this measurement.<\/li>\n
        3. Measure the top inside diameter. Again, be sure to use exact measurements (+ or – 1\/32″).<\/li>\n
        4. Do the same with the bottom inside diameter.<\/li>\n
        5. Note the name and model of the filter that the cartridge came out of.<\/li>\n
        6. Next, you will have to identify the correct top and bottom type. These are the types that you will see. Note the one that most closely matches your filter cartridge.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n\n\n
