This is by far the best purchase I have made for the pool. Soft water no harsh chemicals. It operates like a dream. Would buy it again and again. The last smaller model I had for more than 10 years . Well built products.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The Saltwater system is really nice to have, i have used Intex saltwater systems for years because i liked this option instead of using chemicals in my pool. The units work well except for the low salt warnings that you get over time. I am actually on my 3rd unit over the past 5 or 6 years (and just ordered another one as a backup in the event the one I have been using this year has the 'Low Salt Issue' occur again. Even cleaning the cells per the online instructions from Intex does not fix the issue. I know it actually is NOT a low salt situation because the water has been professionally tested and the pool water tests 'good' for the amount of salt in the pool AND putting a brand new electrode in the Saltwater system ended up working fine.

Thank you for your honest feedback and for being a loyal user of our saltwater systems. We understand how frustrating those low salt warnings can be, especially when you’ve already tested the water and followed the cleaning steps. Your experience helps us better understand where improvements are needed. Please know we’re here to support you anytime—don’t hesitate to reach out if you need assistance.
If I could give negative stars I would. These last about 1 season, I’d that. And then either the control panel goes bed, you get the dreaded code 91 Low Salt. And INTEX claims it has a 1 year warranty. Hmm, wonder why.

Dont spend the money. I bought 1 which lasted 3 months. Got a brand new warranty replacement. It lasted 1 month. The control board and power supply are faulty. I was told by CS THEY KNOW THEY ARE! Needless to say, I am back to Chlorine Tabs which sucks. But at least my pool is clear and clean.

This rating is for the 26669EG model I purchased in 2020. Overall, I am a satisfied customer. I use this unit in combination with a Hayward Powerflo Matrix Pump and Hayward sand filter for my 10,400 gallon Yardmore Saltwater LX above ground pool
I have had to replace parts. I purchased a new 12659EG control module because I flooded and completely submerged the original purchased, so it understandably stopped working. Also had to replace the titanium electrode twice, failed once in the middle of summer 2022, then again in fall 2024 (was covering my pool for the winter a couple of weeks after that, anyway). So, figure on having to purchase new electrodes to make the chlorine production work every two years. I keep salt at about 3200 ppm. Other than that, the only things I do to treat pool is broadcast several pounds of baking soda a couple of times through the summer and add algaecide every couple of weeks starting usually in mid-July, water stays completely transparent. Friend who lives across town is constantly fighting to adjust her chemicals and keep above ground pool from turning green while I frankly do very, very little for weekly (or even monthly) pool maintenance during swim season. Is this a perfect product that's going to give you years of worry-free operation? No. However, the alternative of dealing with (and the constant cost of) adding chlorine is frankly worth it for me.

good morning it's another beautiful day in paradise. i was finally able to get my intex unit up and running on auto. the reason it took so long was because my old intex unit went down and told me that i had low salt. i put in a 40lb. bag and it still read low salt, this went on for a total of 4 bags, then i realized my unit was sending me faulty readings. it took a couple of weeks of draining about 1 inch oer day and then refilling the pool. it's up and running great now thanks terry
