A salt chlorinator failure is sneaky: the pump runs, the water looks fine, and the system may even claim it’s working — while producing no chlorine at all. By the time algae confirms it, you’re treating two problems. We diagnose salt systems properly: cell, board, sensors, and the water chemistry that drives them. Call (407) 555-0144.
Take warning lights seriously — “check cell” and “low salt” lights that persist after cleaning and testing usually mean a cell nearing the end of its life or a sensor lying about the water. Chlorine readings near zero with the system at full output, inspection lights that never come on, or a cell with heavy scale that returns right after cleaning all point to hardware. Cells are consumables — three to seven years is typical — so age is diagnostic information; know roughly when yours was installed.
We test the water first — true salinity, stabilizer, and pH — because bad chemistry mimics dead hardware and ruins new cells fast. Then we test the cell’s actual output and the board’s behavior driving it. Failed sensors and connections get repaired; a dying cell gets replaced with the right model, not a generic; a dead board gets priced against the age of the whole system so you don’t over-invest in old equipment. We finish by setting output for the season and showing you the readings that prove it’s making chlorine again.
Sensor and connection repairs are modest; cells are the common big-ticket item, and we quote them with the model options side by side. Most salt system problems are quoted free from photos of the unit and its display. Onsite diagnosis is a flat $95 when live testing is needed, with every price approved before work begins.
We install, service, and maintain salt systems across our weekly routes, so we know how each brand fails and which “dead” cells are actually chemistry problems. Our own certified techs — never subcontractors — 20+ years in the trade, FL #C-40218, insured, 5.0 on Google.
