What salt cell service includes
- Inspect the cell plates for scale and wear
- Descale with a proper diluted acid solution when needed
- Check salt level, flow and cell readings on the control panel
- Balance pH and alkalinity, which salt pools tend to push upward
- Advise when the cell is near end-of-life
Signs your cell needs attention
- Chlorine stays low even with output turned up
- "Check cell," "low salt" or "no flow" warnings
- White crusty scale visible inside the cell
- The cell is several years old and output keeps dropping

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a salt cell be cleaned?
Check it every few months; clean only when scale is visible, since over-cleaning with acid shortens cell life.
How long do salt cells last?
Lifespan varies by brand, run time and water chemistry; many last several years.
Is my salt reading accurate?
Not always. A scaled cell or faulty sensor can misread, so we confirm with a separate test.
Do salt pools still need other chemicals?
Yes. pH, alkalinity, stabilizer and calcium still need balancing.
