If you like seeing what the chlorinator is doing and want to change settings from a menu, it is worth the small step up. If you want it to control pumps and lights, look at the Electrochlor ECO instead. As with all salt chlorinators, check the pool volume limits against your climate and go up a size if you are close.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cell plumbs into the pool return line and the power pack mounts on a wall near the pump, with the supplied cabling between them. Fit it yourself, or use a pool installer or plumber. The power pack needs a licensed electrician to connect to a fixed supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWarranty \u0026amp; Support\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e3 year warranty on the power pack and 3 years on the salt cell, conditional on the install and use following Waterco's terms. Commercial installations are covered for 1 year. Waterco lists its premium salt cells at 4 years against 3 for a standard cell. DIY installing?
