Can I use this in a Salt Water hot tub system with a Chlorine Generator?

I can't see why not because it's meant for things like that. However when you say chlorine generator. Idk if it should be mixed with chlorine but I could be wrong.

Works great in chlorine pool, not sure about salt water, when actually working.

I think it would be okay with the chlorinated water, but the volume is low, I don't think it would help for heating the water. It is not meant for high volume. I would suggest a sump pump type pump instead. Hope this helps.

Hello,You can use this unit for any size pool and adjust the flow of chlorine from the basket. please contact us at pxh@game-group.com for any other questions or concerns. Thank you

None of the literature mentions anything about not using with a salt water pool. I actually converted my pool to salt water when I installed the heat pump.

Mine is an in-ground pool. This Hayward cell is specific for my Hayward electrolytic chlorine system. I would doubt if it can be used in your situation. Call the Hayward help line on their website for an answer from a knowledgeable professional.

I am sorry to say, I do not know as I do not have a spa bath but only a simple bathtub. However I would pt this question to a plumbing supply store that sells the newer spa baths. I do not see why the salts would cause a problem.

Probably... If you connect them inline (dirty water &gt; sand filter/pump &gt; cartridge filter/pump/chlorine generator &gt; pool) it should work fine. You could remove the paper filter from the cartridge filter/pump to reduce flow restriction, and add a paper filter only if you get a lot of fine particulate suspended matter that the sand filter is missing. Alternately, return the paper filter/generator and get the generator-only unit. My only problem with Intex chlorine generator in the past has been when the flow dropped below the minimum required by the generator -- usually caused by a weak pump or a clogged paper filter. Paper filters with a chlorine generator resolved half of the problem -- fluxuating chlorine levels -- but not the issue of clogging filters. I successfully ran the Intex 12" sand filter/pump with the stand-alone chlorine generator with great results, and no flow problems -- great solution for a 15'x42" round. (This, of course, did not include the additional pump on your chlorine generator...) My current solution is the 14" Intex pump/sand filter/generator.

I believe you can as lng as you use chlorine and not bromine in the tub. These cartridges are for chlorine not bromine.

These systems are chlorine compatible. But while you will need to add an oxidizer or shock weekly we suggest using a granular form such as a Sodium DiChlor.

Yes, you absolutely can and should be doing so. If you look at the specifications, the pool filtration process is longer than the chlorination process. On a daily basis the pool filter pump should be running longer than the salt water chlorinator. The water passes through the salt water chlorinator but without the electric charge it is just doing that, passing through.

Yes. I alternate this product with chlorine. Bromine doesn't seem to work as effectively in my hot tub. As a long time hot tub owner, I have noticed the actual tub accepting or rejecting certain chemical combinations at different times during ownership. I use an oxy product like this (I bought this specific brand because it was easy through Amazon), the Nature 2 cartridge, and occasional chlorine in my 2001 Vanguard Hot Springs tub. I do have an ozonator and I installed a UV in-line sterilization system using a standard Pondmaster UV filtration light. If you have any other question just ask. - Kris Yes.

it is a sand filter pool BUT I feel it is worth the investment to buy the salt water chlorine generator. I put it in line with the sand filter and I had a clear pool all summer. All I had to do was vacuum it and test the water to see if I had to run the chlorinator longer that night or not.

Yes you can use this unit. This offline chlorinator includes everything you need. Tubing, fittings, seals and the chlorinator.

I think you would be fine using this product with salt water pools that use the salt for chlorine generation. The product is mostly baking soda with water clarifier added in. The product does 3 things: increases pH, increases Alkalinity and adds clarifier to your pool water. I use this product with my outdoor pool which holds about 28,000 gallon and have been very happy with it. I add about 1 tablet of this per 4 tablets of 3 inch chlorine tablets that I put into my chlorinator. If you monitor your pool chemistry you could also periodically just add a tablet(s) when your pH and Alkalinity levels get low in your pool. You could also buy Arm & Hammer baking soda for Alkalinity adjustment with a separate pool water clarifier product and use them as directed to achieve the same end result.

You can get a filter that is specifically set up for salt and not chlorine like the standard option. I personally have the standard chlorine option, but supposedly the salt water system saves money in chemicals and does not burn the eyes like chlorine can. Also, if you purchase this pool with the standard filter pump, you can buy a saltwater system at a later date. I believe that they generally run about $200 when purchased separately.
