IntelliChlor generators take electrolytic chlorine generation to a higher level of convenience, reliability, and safety. But to understand why the IntelliChlor generator is better, it helps to first understand how it works. Table salt (sodium chloride) is added to the pool water less than a teaspoon of salt per gallon of pool water is all that’s required. As the dissolved salt flows through the generator cell, it is electrolytically converted to pure chlorine, which is then distributed throughout the pool, sanitizing the water, keeping it fresh, clear, and safer for swimmers.

I have not received the piece I ordered (Pentair Salt Chlorine Generator IC 40) and was sent another one instead (IC 15). Since I called customer service on Monday, I have been asked for pictures of the item received, which were sent right away. I was told I was sent someone else’s order and that the warehouse would contact me. I checked with customer service 2 days ago. Nothing. Sent another email yesterday. Still no response.
