I just noticed this salt cell (CaliMar) to replace the FSOFT1400 (r0503000) cell for way cheap. Anyone have experience with it? CaliMar® Replacement Salt Cell Compatible with Zodiac® Nature2® Fusion Soft 1400 System Model R0503000 | 40,000 Gallons | CMARCFS40-1Y It sells from...

Holy moly, i just searched again on amazon today and found the R0503000 for $529! That's the cheapest I've seen it in a couple months. This is the one I just saw for $529:

I can't even find the OEM FSOFT1400....only the generic r0503000. Unless you are saying the ro503000 is considered OEM. thank you!

I noticed there are salt cells that are WAY cheaper than the $750 fusionsoft 1400 (40k gallon version). Bottom line, are there cheaper cells that will work with this unit? Was this a bad purchase for the fusionsoft 1400 system with Jandy? Thank you.

Thank you Leebo. I follow the Taylor instructions to the letter....first test I did was the 0 to 1000 ppb test.....solid dark blue. Did it again, same thing. THEN, did the 0 - 6000 ppb test. Same result. For the 0-1000 test: 1. rinse/fill to 5ml (and I'm OCD so I get it almost...

Thanks, will see if there's a connection with salt & phosphates.

Ohhh. But that said. I just looked up a Leslie’s test they did very soon after the pool was opened shows phosphate at 1,148.

I don’t know about the sequestrates. Don’t have phosphate remover bought…yet

Retest is definitely 6000+.

ok. I’m gonna give it another try for sanity check.

Since it’s not the fill water. I do have an aqua pure system which has that swcg + minerals cartridge. Ps — don’t plan to ever replace the minerals one since it adds metals…just let it sit there. Not sure if that factors into this conversation.

…**drum roll** Fill water is ~150 ppb

Great idea. Have had to fill it a lot recently.

Oh wait. Toads LOVE to jump in at night. Most of them get out by morning but an occasional one is found in the strainer basket.

Thanks. But is 6000+ even normal? Only thing I can think got in is leaves, dust and occasional grass clippings.
