Why it matters

The Intex Krystal Clear QS200 Salt Water System is a salt chlorine generator rated for pools up to 2,200 gallons. With the usual headroom it suits pools of about 1,800 gallons in normal use, or 1,500 gallons in a hot climate or with heavy use.

A cell must match its control board's model; salt cells typically last about 3 to 7 years and wear faster when run at high output.

The listing gives a weight of 2.81 kg and saltwater system in the box.
