Mounting The Salt & Swim 3C Control Box; Plumbing - Hayward Salt & Swim® 3C Owner's Manual

Mounting the Salt & Swim 3C Control Box
The Salt & Swim 3C is contained in a raintight enclosure that is suitable for outdoor mounting. The
Control Box must be mounted a minimum of 10 ft. (4 meters) horizontal distance (or more, if local codes
require) from the pool, within 3ft from a GFCI outlet, and within 15ft from where the Cell is installed.
The Control Box is designed to mount vertically on a flat surface with the cables facing downward.
Because the enclosure also acts as a heat sink (disperses heat from inside the box), it is important
not to block the four sides of the Control Box. Do not mount Salt & Swim 3C inside a panel or tightly
enclosed area.
Before securing the Control Box to the intended location, make sure that the power cord will reach the
GFCI outlet and that the Cell cable will reach the location where the Cell Vessel will be installed. Use the
included Mounting Template to position the fasteners to the mounting surface. Refer to the diagram below.

Plumbing

The Cell Vessel is designed to install in either 1½" or 2" PVC pool plumbing. For pools using 1½"
polypipe, you must use a Hayward DIY-POLYPIPE adapter kit. The Cell Vessel must be installed on a
10" run of straight pipe at the end of the return piping just before the water returns to the pool. All
pool equipment should be upstream from the Cell Vessel. It must be located within 15 feet of where
the Control Box is mounted. Also, there must be enough clearance to insert and remove the Cell from
the Vessel after the Vessel is installed.
