    New Pentair Salt Cell IC40 Checklist

    No, I don't think so. I actually have no idea. The history on this cell can be seen here, here and here (my previous post in this thread). To summarize... Cable failure cause a short in an old cell. Replacement from Pentair was installed. New cell worked for 8 months until cell light started...

    New Pentair Salt Cell IC40 Checklist

    Perfect. Thank you. It worked for 8 months, then the cell light started flashing. I posted about it here. It was a replacement from Pentair for a safety issue.

    New Pentair Salt Cell IC40 Checklist

    I have a new IC40 salt cell that I just bought to replace a failed cell. I have replaced my salt cell in the past and didn't check much of anything then.

    Looks like I have a 073129. So according to your details above, I need a 2.2HP motor. Why would you suggest a 073127? Keep the impellor undersized for the motor?

    I bought a vacuum when we first moved in. Used it 2-3 times. So for the past 6 or so years, I have not used a vacuum at all. I simply brush the pool.

    ok, Pentair said that I need a 355024S 1.5HP (SF2.2). Does that equate to a total of 2.2HP?
