Salt Cell For ACE Sanitizing System (Solid Plate)

Stop Playing Backyard Chemist — Let Your Salt Cell Do the Work

You bought your hot tub or pool to relax — not to measure chemicals, haul heavy chlorine jugs, or deal with dry skin and red eyes after every soak.

The Salt Cell for ACE Sanitizing System (Solid Plate) is the upgrade that changes everything. It automatically generates pure, clean chlorine from lightly salted water — keeping your water crystal-clear, silky-smooth, and perfectly balanced without the constant chemical guesswork.

How Does It Work?

Here's the secret: salt systems still use chlorine — you just never have to buy it again.

Using a safe process called electrolysis, the ACE salt cell takes lightly salted water and converts it into pure, active chlorine on the spot. Once that chlorine sanitizes your water, it naturally converts back into salt — and the cycle starts all over again. It's a self-sustaining loop of perfectly clean water, running automatically in the background while you enjoy your spa.

Why Hot Tub Owners Love Salt Cell Systems

• 💧 Silky, Spa-Quality Water — Salt is a natural water softener. Step out of your hot tub with skin that feels moisturized and refreshed, not dry and tight.
• 🚫 No More Chemical Smell or Red Eyes — That harsh smell and eye sting come from chloramines, not chlorine itself. The ACE salt cell continuously eliminates chloramines, leaving your water fresh and gentle on sensitive skin and eyes.
• ⏱️ Automatic, Consistent Sanitization — No more chemical yo-yo. Your water stays balanced whether you're hosting a crowd or away on vacation. Just set it and forget it.
• 💰 Save Money Every Season — Once installed, you dramatically reduce the amount of chlorine you need to buy, haul, and store. Most hot tub owners find it pays for itself over time.

Is It Really Saltwater? Will It Feel Like the Ocean?

Not at all! The salt level in an ACE-sanitized hot tub is incredibly low — about the same as a human teardrop. You won't taste it or smell it. You'll just notice that the water feels noticeably softer, cleaner, and more comfortable than traditional chlorine.

Designed Specifically for Hot Tubs

Unlike pool salt systems, the ACE Sanitizing System is engineered specifically for the higher temperatures of hot tubs. It's built to handle the demands of spa water, keeping your tub pristine and ready the moment you lift the cover — even in the middle of an Alberta winter.
