Salt pools are popular across Central Florida for a reason — softer water, no chlorine odor, no jugs to lug, and fewer skin and eye irritations. But salt systems aren't maintenance-free. The cell needs cleaning every 3-6 months, salt levels need monitoring, and stabilizer (CYA) drift will silently destroy your sanitizer efficiency.
Sunny Clean Pool services and installs every major salt system on the market: Pentair IntelliChlor, Hayward AquaRite and TurboCell, Jandy TruClear and AquaPure, CircuPool, and more. Whether you need a cell deep clean, a new control board, or a full salt-system install on a chlorine pool, we handle it.

How It Works
- 1
System health check
We pull the cell, inspect for scale, and test cell amperage and salt level.
- 2
Service or replace recommendation
Clean a healthy cell, replace one that's past its useful life — we tell you honestly which it is.
- 3
Tested and reset
After service, we recalibrate the system and verify proper chlorine output.
Why It Matters
Salt cells lose efficiency every year. A cell making half its rated chlorine forces your control board to run longer hours, wears it out faster, and lets chlorine drop low enough for algae to take hold.
Catching cell decline early — cleaning at the right interval, replacing before failure — keeps the rest of the system happy and your water consistently clear.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often does a salt cell need cleaning?+
Typically every 3-6 months in Central Florida, depending on water hardness and stabilizer levels. We check at every weekly visit.
How long do salt cells last?+
Most cells last 4-7 years with proper care. Hard water and high CYA shorten lifespan.
How much does a new salt system install cost?+
Full salt-system conversion typically runs $2,200-$3,200 in the Orlando area depending on pool size and electrical setup.
Can I convert my chlorine pool to salt?+
Yes — most chlorine pools convert easily. We size the system to your pool, install, and stay through the first weeks to dial it in.
