    New salt cell needed. Generic? Brand recommendations?

    I had this same question last month and ended up going with a replacement Hayward T15 versus the generic options. I bought off Amazon (I confirmed with Hayward that Amazon was an authorized seller and the three year warranty would be honored if I had an issue) because the price was only $100 or...

    Hayward T-15

    I bought a T15 and installed it yesterday. Came from Amazon for $520 plus tax. I do believe I saw that the 940 is only sold by pool stores and not places like Amazon.

    New Hayward cell is installed and generating. I did have to recalibrate the controller but other than that it was easy peasy. Thanks for all your help.

    New Hayward cell is on order from Amazon and will be here tomorrow. As far as the dial...the numbers move smoothly as I rotate it so it appears to be working correctly. I guess I'll just need to remember I'm 10-15 percentage points off when I set it. I assume the diagnostic screen is what I...

    Need Hayward T-cell-15 replacement...

    It stabilized at around 800-900 before going to zero. Another weird thing I noticed now that I’m learning more about these diagnostics is that the % output diagnostic level is reading 65% even though the dial is set on 50%. Is that normal?

    Everything is identical expect the salt is now reading 1600. Nine years sounds like a good life for one of the cells based on what I’ve read on here so time to replace?

    Need Hayward T-cell-15 replacement...

    And this is a new fill up because we had the liner replaced so the salt cell hasn’t worked since last fall. Not sure how it just fails over the winter but it appears it may have. I was stupid and left it out (I am pretty confident previous homeowners did too) over the winter so that could be the...

    Need Hayward T-cell-15 replacement...

    Salinity is right around 3200-3400 tested with my Taylor kit and from my local pool store. The Aquarite controller will only read 1500-1700 no matter if I reset or recalibrate so the check cell/low salt light is always on and thus won’t generate. I’m on vacation right now so don’t have access to...

    Need Hayward T-cell-15 replacement...

    So turns out I need a new salt cell. I inherited a Hayward T-cell-15 when we bought the house last fall and evidently it went bad over the winter. Should I just replace with the same cell and spend about $600 or go with the Inyo Pools “generic” Pureline cell for $400? Did a quick search and...
