In the description, it says cell not included, but then, right under that it says that the cell IS included. So, is it or not? Thank you!

I apologize, that is not worded very good. It comes with the cell, I think what they wanted to say there is that there is a replacement cell sold separately, but the complete system comes with the cell. That system will need to be special ordered from Hayward though, we do not have it in stock.

I am not particularly happy with my Jandy Aquapure system. Does anyone make a system that is compatible with their control system?
Reply
Hi, Bill. You can use any chlorine generator if you have a Jandy Pool Automation controller. The controller will only be able to send power to the chlorine generator telling it when to turn on/off.

I have an inground pool with vinyl liner and a Hayward pump and filter system that uses de. Can I use the existing pump and filter system and convert it to a salt system? Do you still use the de? Also, what model would I need for a 21,000 gal pool? Thank you for your help.

Hi, Mike. This system will work with a 16'x32' in-ground pool as long as it does not exceed 30,000 gallons of water.

I have a newly installed 28' round above ground Doughboy that I bought used. I have the original Doughboy pump and sand filter system and want to use a salt system instead of chlorine. It's about 18,000 gals. What salt system would you recommend? Can I use the Hayward system you have on sale ? Thanks

Tom, Unfortunately, this system can not be used on above ground pools. I would recommend the Hayward Aquatrol system. Please keep in mind that adding a salt system to your pool will corrode any metal/steel components over time.

How easy is this to install?

Does it come with a check valve so the water does not flow back to the heater?
Reply
This unit does not come with a check valve. That would be something that would need to be purchased separately. Check Valves

Does this need to be wired directly into the breaker box, or does it just plug in?
Also, does it adjust for pH as well or is another system needed for that?
Thanks

The Control Box must be mounted a minimum of 10 ft. (4 meters) horizontal distance (or more, if local codes require) from the pool, within 3ft from a GFCI outlet, and within 15ft from where the Cell is installed. This unit does not control or monitor PH. You would need Aqua Rite Pro Power Supply & Salt Cell (40,000 Gallons) (AQR15PRO) with Chemistry Kit 1, pH and ORP Sense, ORP Dispense - AQLCHEM and Chemistry Kit 2, CO2 pH Dispense - AQLCHEM2.

The instructions say SAS cell sold separately. Is that true that it is not included?
Reply
Hi, Richard. The Cell is included with this Hayward Salt & Swim Chlorine Generator Complete System - SALTSWIM-PRO.

Hello:
do I need to empty my pool before doing this, chemicals won't conflict?
Thank you very much.

Hi, Dario. If you're currently using chlorine tabs, you do not have to drain the pool to make the conversion. However, you will if you're using bromine or biguanide sanitizers.

Can i use a sand filter in a salt water pool. We are looking to buy a home in Arizona and have questions. Existing cell appears to be non functional. Display does not light and we see a chlorine float in the pool. We have not talked to the current owner but assume it has been converted to chlorine. evidence of DE usage around skimmer basket.

Hi, Robert. Yes, you can use a sand filter in a saltwater pool.

Hello I am trying to decide between this model and the Hayward Aqua Rite Chlorine Generator 25K-AQR9. What are the benefits or pros and cons between the these two models? I have a 20,000 gallon in ground pool, heavy use, much thanks!
Reply
I would suggest the SAS pro as it will handle heavier use
