Salt Cell Replacement?

[rthompson869]

I recently opened the pool. Chemicals are fine, but noticed the Chlorine from the Salt Cell was not being generated, so I kicked it up and sure enough my Chlorine levels are going down. I changed the mineral cartridge and did another test.. no change. No error codes or anything from the monitor. So I am assuming its the cell. It was last replaced in 2021. Was just looking for some guidance on the correct one to buy or if there are any recommendations.

Is this the correct one? I should have taken a picture of the unit, but it has three prongs for the power.

Four years of life isn’t very much. Have you done an overnight chlorine loss test to rule out algae first

For the salt cell,
700 cell Part# R0502800
1400 cell Part#R0503000

How big is your pool, you likely want the 1400...

I would not use the mineral cartridge, or remove the minerals, it will cause staining.
Here is how to remove the minerals:
