Hayward AquaRite Salt System AQR3 - 3 Year Warranty

Automatic Salt Chlorination System for Pools up to 15,000 Gallons

Ditch the bleach jugs and test strips—AquaRite AQR3 is your “set-and-forget” pool chemist. Pop it in, set your salt level, and let it handle the heavy lifting so you can get back to cannonballs. 🏊‍♂️

How It Works

  • Salt → Sanitizer: Dissolve ordinary pool salt to 2,700–3,400 ppm. Water flows across ruthenium-coated titanium plates, where low-voltage electrolysis produces pure hypochlorous acid on demand.
  • Auto-Reversal Self-Clean: Every ~2 hrs the cell flips polarity—knocking scale off the blades so you spend less time scrubbing and more time swimming.
  • Built-In Salt Sensor: No more guesswork: an internal probe monitors salt concentration and keeps your chemistry locked in.

Key features and operational notes for the Hayward® AquaRite® Salt System (AQR3):

  • Right-Sized Capacity: Treats pools up to 15,000 gal—no overkill, no wasted power.
  • Consistent Output: Produces ~0.75 lb/day of chlorine for crystal-clear water.
  • LED Status Panel: Quick-glance lights for Power, Salt OK, Self-Clean, and Service Alert.
  • Universal 2″ Unions: Snap-on fittings for tool-free plumbing—DIY-friendly fit (though professional installation is required for warranty).
  • Smart-Ready: Integrates with Hayward OmniLogic® or ProLogic® automation for remote control and monitoring.
  • Compact & Durable: UV-stabilized housing built to brave sun, rain, and pool-party chaos.

Installation Warning: Must be installed by a qualified pool professional—improper wiring or plumbing can void warranty (and your weekend fun) and create safety hazards.
