To tell if your Pentair salt cell is bad, check for warning lights or error codes on your control panel, such as "Low Salt," "Check Cell," or "Cell Fault." Additionally, inspect the cell for excessive scale buildup or damage, and test the water for low chlorine levels despite proper system settings and adequate salt. If these signs are present, your salt cell may need cleaning, repair, or replacement.
