Product details

The Hayward GLX-SALTMETER is a digital handheld salt meter for pool water. It is battery operated, completely waterproof, has an auto shut off feature and comes in a case for storage.

Why a separate meter is worth having

A salt chlorinator reports a salt level, but that number comes from the cell and the board, not from a direct measurement of the water. A dirty cell or a circuit board error can push the reading off. Owners who trust it add salt that was never needed, and a pool that ends up well over target usually has to be partly drained to bring it back. A handheld meter gives an independent reading before any salt goes in the water.

Using it

There is nothing to install. Switch it on, take the reading, and the auto shut off saves the battery afterwards. The case keeps it dry and in one place between tests.

Two versions in circulation

Hayward changed the design of this tester. The green style and the newer blue style are both in supply and share the exact same part number, so either may arrive depending on stock.

Questions and answers

What people ask about this product, answered by our pool techs.

Why not just read the salt level off my chlorinator?
A salt chlorinator can report an incorrect salt reading because of a circuit board error or a dirty cell. Owners then add salt they did not need, and an over salted pool can end up needing a partial drain to correct.
Is it waterproof?
Yes. Hayward lists the meter as completely waterproof, and it comes in a case for storage.
Mine came in blue, not green. Is it the right one?
Yes. Hayward changed the design of the digital salt tester, and both the existing green version and the newer blue version carry the exact same part number.
Does it need calibrating or setting up?
It is a battery operated handheld with an auto shut off feature, listed as easy to use and set up. Follow the instructions supplied with the meter.
