How many amps does a salt water pool use?
Most units use between 6.2 Volts dc and 9.2 Volts ac and operate between 10 and 30 Amps.
Can salt generators be repaired?
Salt Chlorine Generators do require some maintenance and repair. Chances are, at some point you will face an expensive repair to your salt system, I’m talking about either a new salt cell, or a new control board. Both of these repairs can approach half the cost of a new system.
What should the salt level be on my chlorine generator?
Your chlorine generator is still producing chlorine at the moment, which is a good thing. This is more of an indicator light than anything else. The salt level is 2300 ppm or less and no chlorine is generating. Step 1: Check your system to confirm that you have programmed the correct cell size.
How are the amps of a generator calculated?

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 I do if my pool salt level is too high?
If so, the only alternative is to replace water until the salt level comes down to something more reasonable. Pool store salt tests are very unreliable. While almost anything is possible, it is more likely that the pool store salt test is wrong than that a new cell salt reading will be wrong.

How can I tell if my salt level is too high?
But if it goes down as you would expect, then the salt level probably really is too high. Check under the diagnostics menu for the correct cell size. If you select the cell size to t-3, t-5 or t-9 instead of the correct t-15 then the salt readout from the controller will be high salt. Hello!
