    Aqua Rite Pro and T15 cell. Salt 0

    After fixing the board the system is working now. I did get the cell tested yesterday and it was good. I've seen those bad solder joints in other threads over the years for the standard Aqua Rite so I wasn't surprised. Those two are indeed the two relays that go to the cell. I've had this unit...

    Aqua Rite Pro and T15 cell. Salt 0

    I had to repair the board in 2018 so I pulled it off to have a look. I had two bad solder joints on the power relays to the cell. I fixed those and it would work for a few minutes then the chlorine would drop from 3400 to 2500, then 1500 and it would shut off. I pulled the board back off and...

    Aqua Rite Pro and T15 cell. Salt 0

    I only used acid to clean it if the water pressure isn't enough. I cleaned it the other day with acid as it had a few spots of build up. I had my previous cell tested at the store and it was bad.

    Aqua Rite Pro and T15 cell. Salt 0

    This is my 3rd cell over the lifetime of having swg. Every other one did the same 0 salt reading. I called Hayward and they said that is standard for a bad cell so I have not taken it for testing. I have the PRO which is completely different then the standard Aqua Rite. It does not have a switch...

    Aqua Rite Pro and T15 cell. Salt 0

    I've had this Aqua rite pro for a lot of years. Every cell I have bought seems to last less then the previous one. The last one I bought only lasted 1 yr 10 months. Every time I have bought a new one the price has increased 50%+and although it says 3 year warranty on Haywards site this model...

    We have a fiberglass pool and the old tile is starting to fall off. I looked at tile and talked to my local pool place but after 3x they don't seem to show up. I am confused about the tile, one guy said they just use regular tile installation method and the last guy said it comes in a roll for...
