Intellichlor IC40 Chlorine Salt Cell

[ScottGett]

Afternoon,
Question about, Intellichlor IC40 Chlorine Salt Cell. Switched from salt cell to chlorine tabs (via Pentair Model 300 Chlorine feeder) a few years ago after we changed our vinyl liner. Salt cell was never removed. Was told by team that opens our pool that removing would be difficult considering where it sits in tubing and recommend just leaving it as is which we have done the last couple of years. My primary concern with leaving cell there unused is possibility of corrosion/ metals leaking into pool water (and flow/ pressure of water through system). Is this ok to leave as is?
Thanks

They make dummy cells to replace it. If you are not going to use the SWCG (not sure why) then remove it. Might be able to sell at least the power center.

Scott,

Why did you switch???

My guess is that 90% of the pool owners that switch from tablets over to saltwater, would rather fill their pools in with dirt vs. going back to tablets..

Just curious..

I doubt you would see any difference at all leaving the cell in place, or removing it..

Thanks,

Jim R.
