Pros & Cons
Pros
Install is simple (under 5 minutes) works perfectly except for one issue. It should be included with the install instructions. If it fails, they'll give you a new one right off the shelf.
Chlorine test levels are off the charts every day, even in the middle of our az summer. Good to have for these days of costly & inconsistent stocks of chlorine supplies. For older aqua logic systems that only allow you to enable / disable the chlo... Read More
Cons
It's only 3 years old. Hayward says this has a 3 year warranty. This is a very expensive item so i recommend anyone needing one to look for another company that will honor the three-year warranty.
Store says the same thing, cant replace a cell thats passed the tes. I order a knockoff to replace this one, so i’ll see how it does. Will buy a circupool® cir-gen15 or optimum pool technologies simple cell replacement salt cell up to 40,000 gallon.
Highlights
Quality
Easy to install and works well chlorinating salt in the pool.
Since installing it, i’ve had no issues, and it has consistently kept my pool’s chlorine levels perfectly balanced.
I purchased a “compatible” cell with a 2 year warranty, and it stopped working after four months.
It simply screws off and on (make sure you turn off the water flow!
Price
Yes the hayward costs more but its worth every penny.
)the only reason i give a 4 star is the price.
Not worth the trouble buying cheap and having to do the work twice.
No complaints but the price $$$$ holy cow
Shipping
Independent pool store sent it out quickly.
Competitiveness
Comparing that to the previous hayward cell i had that lasted greater than 7 years under the same usage and environmental condi... Read More
I tried less expensive brands at half the cost and got less than half the life.
If i don't get at least 4 years, i will unfortunately have to get another brand.
In this case, it is better to go with the name brand.
