Planning to do a Salt System. Local Pool store has sales planned for April on Hayward, was also looking at the much more cost effective Crystal Pure Sale System from Inyo Pools (they were great when I bought a replacement motor).
I have an 11,000 gallon pool. If I get a Hayward, they make a 15K or 40K rated one. The 15K would mean running high capacity, 40K would be just right around 30%.
Inyo Offers a 60K rated one as well. That one would run around 15% (give or take) and should last a LONG time. They now sell a "Heavy Duty" -- shipping March 25th -- supposed to offer 10,000 hrs of Salt (instead of 7,000).
On the one hand, price wise, the 60K Heavy Duty at 20% whould last 17 years... which seems like overkill given a 3 year warranty. Even the 40K regular should last 7 years.
Am I overthinking this? Does the Heavy Duty make any sense? Should I fork over the money for the name brand?
Thanks everyone! Been saving up a few months, was about to pull the trigger when local store mentioned April sales (I was picking up Chlorine/Acid), and then saw the Heavy Duty option on Inyo.
