Questionable longevity
on June 14, 2026

Verified Purchase:Yes
The system itself is great. Just hope this pump last longer than the original that came with the pool. That one only lasted two seasons. (12 hrs. A day 5 months per year.) stored in heated garage in the off season. Bearing on the fan side locked up. Buddies same system is 4 years old still going strong, hopefully this one lasts longer than the original. I will say this sand/salt system is far superior to the cartridge filter systems I’ve had in the past. Longevity experience is the reason for three stars.
I would recommend this to a friend!

"LOW SALT" ALERT COMING ON IN ERROR
on May 24, 2026
Posted by: Unhappy Jack
from Saint Helena Island, S.C.
Gender:Male
The "low salt" alert keeps coming on even though the salt is at the recommended level of 3500ppm. And when this happens it stops making chlorine, so now I have to buy chlorine and add it by hand.
MAYBE they will reach out to me with a solution?
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Garbage

It died after 3 years just before the winter. To replace the motor it's almost as expensive as buying a new combo. As usual with Intex quality is very poor.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

2 years and it's failing?
on June 22, 2025
Posted by: Adam
from TN
Gender:Male
Got 2 years use and now the pump shuts off and resets every 10 seconds. Of course this happens a couple months after my warranty is up. What a rip off. I kept it stored in my climate controlled garage during winter. Never really over used it with free pump mode or boost mode. And still just get 2 years. Some terrible manufacturing just to rip off customers and get more money.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Terrible product, do not buy! Run the other way!!!
on July 19, 2024
Posted by: Unsatisfied customer
Bought the sand filter and saltwater system 14 months ago and used for 4 months when the electrode failed. Conveniently, this single part only has a 1 year warranty, and is 2/3 the cost of the whole system. Certainly will be the last piece of Intex equipment I buy. If you’re thinking about an Intex saltwater system, don’t. Run the other way!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Only lasts one year
on July 6, 2022
Posted by: Anonymous
Quality is terrible. I've had to replace the control module/motor twice after one year each. the motor works fine, but the module that controls the salt processing fails far too quickly. My pump is in a pump house and out of the weather, but that doesn't seem to matter. When it works -its great, but doesn't last
