How long does a T 15 salt cell last?
3-5 years
It’s important to note, properly maintained salt cell will last 3-5 years; an improperly maintained cell can fail in a year. Considering that salt cells are relatively expensive, we want to make sure you know the basics about prolonging their lifespan so you’ll get the most value for your dollar.
What to do if your salt level is above 3200ppm?
If salt level is above the range, partially drain the pool and/or spa and refill with fresh water to achieve a salt level of 3200ppm, refer to page 9, Step D. If the salt level is not high, verify the correct cell is being used then reset (follow steps for How to Reset Average Salt Levels above)
What should the temperature be on a salt cell?
Once the temperature reading on the screen you should unplug the cell. The temperature should then drop to 77 degrees. If it does then the problem is with your salt cell and it will be time to replace. If the temperature does not drop then the problem is with your circuit board.
What causes instant salt reading to be zero?
There are two cases where the instant salt reading will be zero. The first is if the cell is not currently active it will show an instant salt reading of zero. You appear to have done the correct things to check for that, turning up to 100% and insuring that the water is above 60 degrees should allow the cell to always be on.
What should instant salt reading be on Hayward Omnilogic?
I have Hayward omnilogic which doesn’t have low salt light, However in diagnostics the instant salt reading is 0. My guess is the actual number is prob around 2000ppm based on last year’s number and what I drained and refilled. Will get it checked by the pool store too but having a reading of 0 concerns me.
How to fix high salt reading on Hayward T-15 cell?
Take pictures of the wiring connections (label if necessary), disconnect all the wiring from the PCB. Carefully inspect/fix the PCB in a controlled environment for your own comfort. Having to flip the PCB over and over with all the wires tied up can often lead to another potential issue.
