The Hayward Aqua Rite Chlorine Generator is a professional quality pool sanitation device that does all the work of chlorinating your pool. This first rate salt chlorine generator integrates pH and ORP sensors with chlorine distribution so your pool is always balanced and clear. Using a Hayward Aquarite salt chlorine generator ensures consistently pure water so you can get the most enjoyment possible from your pool.

Troubleshooting:

Why is my “power” LED not lit?
– Check to make sure 120V AC or 240V AC input power is connected to the Aqua Rite control. Verify input voltage with a voltmeter. If there is input power, the fuse may have blown. The unit is protected by a 20 amp mini ATO fuse located on the circuit board above the cell connector.

Why is my “generating” LED flashing?
– The temperature of the pool water is too high or low to operate. You can override this by switching the main switch to “Super Chlorinate.” The Aqua Rite will run at maximum output for the remainder of the current pump cycle or 24 hours, whichever comes first.

Why is the “No Flow” LED lit?
– The Aqua Rite has sensed a no flow condition and has stopped generating chlorine. Check that the flow switch is plugged into the connector on the bottom of the control unit and that the wire is not cut or damaged. Make sure you have at least 12” of straight pipe before the flow switch. If there is adequate flow and the LED is still on, check that the arrows on the flow switch (on top of hex) are pointing in the direction of flow.

Why is the “Check Salt” LED lit or flashing?
– Take a sample of your pool water to your local pool store and have the salt level tested. No salt test is completely accurate and the test results may vary from the salt level on the Aqua Rite display. If salt level is low, add salt according to the chart in the owner’s manual.

Why is the “High Salt” LED lit?
– Check the salt level in the pool. If it is too high, lower the salt level by draining some of the pool water out of the pool and replace with fresh water.

Why is the “Inspect Cell” LED flashing?
– Inspect and clean the cell according to manufacturer directions. When done, press the “diagnostic” button for 3 seconds to stop the flashing.

Why am I getting little or no free chlorine residual?
– Aqua Rite switch in the “off” position.
– The desired level % adjustment setting is too low.
– Low stabilizer level.
– Filter pump switched off or filter pump time too short (8 hours for average size pools, more for large pools).
– Salt level too low (below 2500 ppm)
– Salt level too high (High Salt LED lit).
– Pool water warmer than usual, increase “desired level %” or run filter longer.
– If water temperature falls below 50 degrees F, the Aqua Trol stops generating.
– Excessive scaling on the cell.
– High level of Nitrogen in pool water.
– Yellow algae treatments (Yellow Out) use chlorine at a high rate and deplete the residual free chlorine.

Why is “-Pcb-” displayed and all 4 red/yellow LEDs lit?
– There is a possible Printed Circuit Board fault. Call the manufacturer for service (888-921-POOL).

DO NOT USE Rusts,

Date:May 7, 2011

By taxit

from Virginia

Pros: Keeps water clear and less work to keep up with chemicals

Cons: Rust sides of aluminum and metal sided above ground pools

"We got the salt water generator b/c our pool place recommended it 3 yrs ago. I agree it keeps your pool really clear. BUT, it is not a good mix with metal or aluminum sided above ground pools. We just had to replace our pool b/c it had rusted through to the outside of the walls. Saltwater eats the sides!"

Love the ease,

Date:August 19, 2009

By Anonymous

from So Calif.

Pros: Keeps the water sparkling

Cons: Have to replace the cell every 2 years

"I absolutly love the ease of this product. The only and major draw back is the cell goes out every couple of years. Now that Hayward bought them out, hayward never honors any warrenty unless you jump through a lot of hoops. Some that cann't be jumped. I will never buy Hayward anything. I wish they could figure out the problem or make the cells cheaper because the water quality is amazing, no green hair, the water is soft. I love it."

Best thing that's happened to my pool!,

Date:July 11, 2009

By jpalliser

from TX

Pros: Just hook it up and walk away...worry free operation

Cons: None so far

"This salt system is absolutely the best thing I've purchased for my pool. I've tried for ten years to maintain a clear, clean chlorine pool with little success. Since installing the salt system, the only thing I do is check the filter and levels weekly and add acid if needed. The water has never been clearer.
I had talked with some pool pro's prior to getting this and got mixed info from them. Some said there were no advantages to the salt system and others said they were great. It definitely cut out the need for a weekly visit from the pool service. In my opinion, there have been no disadvantages. I have an inground plaster pool that holds about 25,000 gallons, and it's been amazingly sparkling clean ever since I got this salt system."

Great System Thus Far,

Date:November 26, 2008

By DrTravel

from Central Florida

Pros: No Chlorine, works well, pool looks great, Parts availability

Cons: Cost for cells, Initial cost

"I damaged every thing all over the house with chlorine. Tablets stored inside corroded pipes, ruined lathes and machinery, etc..and even went in through air-conditioner.

A friend had this system. They were happy. We bought this, installed our self, and I could not believe how much clearer the water looked. it was clear before, but wow.
We did plumb it with a by-pass so we can do either chlorine or salt.

Salt is a little more maintenance if you check the chemicals the way you are supposed to...and it does require acid bi-weekly.

There is no way you can convince me it is cheaper than chlorine. But the water is clear, pool salt is easy to get, and it is easy to convert.

And the most important thing...no more chlorine tablets.
Although super shock is recommended if you are out of balance...instead of super chlorinating via the system.
