IntelliChlor Salt Chlorinator Sanitizer

On a dû remplacer notre cellule d'origine, exactement du même modèle, après 9 ans d'usage. Le prix d'achat sur Amazon était plusieurs centaines de dollars en bas de celui demandé en magasin. On nous offrait une livraison en 48 heures avec un léger supplément : l'article est arrivé dès le lendemain de la commande, malgré la distance (de Phoenix, AZ à Montréal, QC). L'installation se fait en quelques minutes et il fonctionne parfaitement. Satisfaction totale.

I have owned several chlorine generators Hayward/goldline, jandy, Pentair is by far the best design. Flow detection built into the device, all electronics built into the device, self cleaning very nice easy to use controls. That being said. I always shelter this product from the sun with a shade or in a shed. If having problems with chlorine generators you are not monitoring your acid levels properly. These generate a base condition while operating naturally causing scale on the parts and on your tile. This must be offset with constant addition of acid to balance. Personally I have found the Pentair acid injection system to be simple and it integrates with this cell perfectly giving you more control over the cell. Fill it with 4 gallons of acid set it and forget it. Fairly cheap and it really makes the pool nearly maintenence free. Bonus is that if installed right it injects the acid right infront of the chlorine cell giving the cell a little help.

Very happy with my Pentair IntelliChlor! If this one lasts as long as our last one did, I will be ecstatic! After our original Pentair unit slowly faded beginning mid-summer 2014 (cell indicator light continuously flashing), it was still able to maintain chlorine at proper levels for the remainder of the season and even limped along over the subsequent winter (we live in the sunny south and don't winterize our pool). However, at start-up this year it was finally done--even blew the fuse in the Power Center. After replacing the fuse and ensuring I couldn't squeeze any more life out of our original unit, it was a no-brainer deciding to buy another IntelliChlor: 1) E-Z repair--remove and replace (using existing Power Center); 2) cheaper than changing systems (again, same Power Center); and 3) was very pleased with original unit that kept our pool beautiful for nine seasons (Did I mention we don't winterize? Pump runs year-round, less operating hours and reduced chlorine output selected on unit, but runs all winter) The only slightly picky technical thing I would mention is that the Control Panel (where indicator lights are located) will be "upside down" when installed in correct flow direction due to a Pentair redesign to support vertical mounting of the unit. Read online elsewhere that it is possible to "flip" the control panel but chose not to because I didn't want to risk damaging the housing; and besides with our pump configuration it's still easy to read. Also have to mention the quality construction of this unit matched the quality of original installed with our pool (pleasant surprise when replacing an expensive equipment item). And the streamlined functionality of this unit, evidently part of the redesign, would seem to indicate Pentair invests in and strives to improve their product line. Unless something unforeseen happens--I'm a dedicated Pentair customer!

Works great! Don't forget to get the Pentair 520556. Plumbing note: the connectors for this unit are 2" so you'll need to get reducers if you have 1.5" plumbing.

Works great!
