1st one lasted perhaps 5 or 6 months. 2d perhaps 4 or 5, a warrantee replacement. Gotta check the cell at Leslie's (not lots hope) and see if they will send a third. If not, I'm going for a Hayward.

It is a rebuilt unit from salt solutions. They have a pretty good reputation. There are many trouble-free pool users who've had great success with them.

It is about a year old. And yes it is the same cell I've been discussing here. Keep in mind that the cell doesn't operate when the water is cold so it's had perhaps 6 months of active operation.

ajw22 - thanks for the information. It turns out that's exactly what I was doing. When I turn on the pump and the delay is satisfied, the SWG will start at between 3200 and 3600 ppm (correct range) @~25 volts and 7 amps then quickly drop in several steps to 2200 PPM @~25 volts and 5 amps...

Thanks. I posted this and forgot. I'll report back tomorrow. ~~~~~ In the interim, the SWG keeps shutting down. I can restart it, but it shuts down again. My salt level is between 3300 (Leslie's) and 3600 (my Tailor kit.) Cell was cleaned three or four weeks ago.

I'm sure you can find a 24 volt transformer that will deliver the power you want. One can often find an exact replacement if you can read manufacturer's info on xformer.

Bump. Nobody home? This is a good question, my friends?

I am having great difficulty getting parts for my aquanaut-200, specifically the "Find 3, PVXS01SA-237-01 Upper Body, Blue Logo" I order and wait, and in a month they tell me they are out of stock. Is THAT customer service? Over and over again. Perhaps Hayward won't ever make the part again...

That was not the question, was it, sir? ~~~~~ I am trying to understand what problems 1/4 teaspoon of copper sulfate in the water fill well in an 18.5K gallon pool might cause. I find it hard to imagine that the pool will notice that amount of copper, especially as my pebble surface is...

At least I think it is a 4.45. I had a fouled SWG. Cleaned it. Plugged it in. "SALT LEVEL LOW" or something like that message. My salt level is higher than 3200 ppm. Tried to reset salt level, but the instructions in the PDF noted below don't seem to work...

There was a very small Palo Verde I thought was just a weed about four feet from the fill valve pit. That HAD to be the culprit. I burned it down at the base with a repurposed ice melting 40K BTU torch, along with any other weed anywhere near the valve. I cannot imagine that 1/4 to 1/2...

It DOES look like ROOTS! I can't imagine what, though, unless it is some pesky weed I neglected to pull. There are no trees nor landscaping anyplace around. As I mentioned before, this is the desert! How to get rid? I haven't looked at the results of the chlorine, but I would want to put...

I get about the same results with my Taylor kit.

Thanks, but I live in the desert. We don't have grass! The stuff is tubular, not flat. Never seen anything link it.

Went down to the pool and see minor water rising from my auto fill valve port in the deck. I open it up and it is filled with these stringy weeds. I grappled as many as I could with my hands and poured some chlorine into the port. What is this stuff and how can I get rid of / prevent it...

I've found the reported salt levels from these controllers to be useless. TRULY AND UDDERLY USELESS. JUST IGNORE THEM AS LONG AS THE SWG IS OPERATING. Even when the SWG is happy and operating, the salt levels the computer reports are just not reliable. For example, when the SWG is mineral...

Rancho: You are my hero! I knew there must be a product like this. tanks abunch mac

I just got my SWG cleaned up. I go to install it and the threaded collar at the bottom is cracked, won't snug up. Since it is captive on the return pipe, how the what do you fix this? Does somebody make a collar that will separate and screw together? Or is this a major plumbing job? help!

I've an aquanaut 200 sweep that my pool guy says is worn out. It's five or six years old. I had a Kreepy for 25 years in my California pool, and it worked rather well. Each lasted around 12 years. I had to replace parts but it was pretty simple stuff. Should I be looking at anything else?

Poolbreh: I agree. Thanks to the both of you.

Just hired a pool guy who claims the missing handle (find 2, p/n PVXS0002-234-01) is affecting the ability of my cleaner to get around the pool. When this thing broke I didn't worry about it as it seems to be a fairly useless part. Thoughts? tanks mac

Well, thanks for all of your inputs. For some reason this sucker has decided that we have 2700 PPM salt and has started working. Go figure?

Thank you for your replies. Understand that this is a newly re-filled pool. --->>> I do not at all understand your conclusion that the SWG is deficient? Can you please explain? --->>> How am I to explain to the persons who sold me this rebuilt cell that it needs to be replaced? This issue...

As I have not gotten around to identifying the exact Hayward controller I have, but from my records it seems to be a ProLogic pl-p-4 can you please shed some light on what the polarity reversals accomplished? some sort of magic happened, and all is now well??? I'd like to understand it. thanks

Thank you. My controller is noted in my tag line. My rebuilt T15 has no information except for "Salt Water Solutions" and a phone number. SWG is 10 months old, and it din't run much over the cold weather. I'll have to supply the controller information later. ~~~~~ Did the +/- thing on the...

Ah. I meant to mention that it is refurbT15 with a replacement cell. The rebuilding firm claims they use the same core as Hayward; it appears to be so. I'll try the polarity thing. By "box" you mean controller?

In May 2021 I replaced my six or so year old Hayward T15 with a rebuilt unit which was allegedly provided with the same cell that Hayward uses. I recently replaced the water in my pool. It is betwixt 18K- 19K gallons. they charge me for differing amounts ever time they fill it! Do you...

Poured several five gallon buckets of water down the pump. Turned off main drain and pool sweep leaving just skimmer on. Ba-da-bing.

still no joy - new o ring and lube
