Solaxx Salt Pool Systems

Saltron Retro Chlorine Generator For Above Ground Pools

Looking to simplify pool care and enjoy softer, more luxurious water? The Solaxx Saltron Retro could be the perfect salt chlorinator for your above ground pool. Designed for quick, hassle-free setup — no plumbing or wiring required — this convenient “drape-over” system effortlessly converts ordinary salt into the steady stream of free chlorine your pool needs to stay sparkling clean.

Why Choose the Saltron Retro?

Adding a salt chlorine generator to an existing or brand-new aboveground pool couldn't be easier. Manufacturer rated for pools up to 20,000 gallons max, the Saltron Retro is perfectly sized for most typical aboveground pools. That means you can enjoy the salt pool benefits that most new in-ground pools enjoy, without the higher price or the work required to plumb it in and wire it!

Easy Installation, No Plumbing Required

The Saltron Retro’s unique “over-the-wall” design allows it to hang on the edge of your pool, eliminating any complex plumbing work. You simply place the cell in the water, connect the control box to a power source, and let it start producing chlorine.

Reliable, Automatic Sanitization

The integrated control box provides precise chlorine production so you can enjoy balanced, crystal-clear water without the guesswork. Set the output to your preferred level, and the system automatically generates a natural form of chlorine every day.

Softer, More Comfortable Water

Traditional chlorine can cause burning eyes, dry skin, and a strong chemical odor. With salt chlorination, you’ll notice the difference right away: smoother water feel, virtually no “pool smell,” and less irritation on skin and eyes.

Cost-Effective & DIY-Friendly

Over time, a saltwater system like the Saltron Retro can help you save significantly on chemical bills. The straightforward, do-it-yourself installation and minimal upkeep helps minimize the hassle & costs of pool maintenance.

Maintenance Made Simple

If you still have a traditional chlorine pool, you know how hard it can be to keep the pool right every day. When using a Solaxx salt chlorinator for your above-ground pool, its simple maintenance looks like this:

Check Levels

A quick regulary check of your pool chemical levels ensure things are staying in check. The salt chlorinator should be maintaining the free chlorine, and other supplementary chemistry which changes more slowly gets taken care of same way as usual.

Seasonal Adjustments

As weather gets warmer or cooler, or as the pool gets used more or less, Solaxx salt systems are easily adjustable to provide the precise amount of chlorination your pool needs every day. Typically, adjustments are only needed infrequently.

Check The Salt & Cell

Salt chlorinators continually recycle a very low level of natural salt in the pool - salt doesn't get used up! But with rain, you'll eventually add small amounts of salt to the pool. Check the cell seasonally; if present, mineral scaling is easily cleaned.

Conventional pools often demand constant checking and juggling of chlorine tablets, liquids, and shock treatments. With the Solaxx Saltron Retro, you’ll cut down on chemical handling and enjoy consistently balanced water—all while saving money in the long run. It’s a simple, modern way to keep your above ground pool at its best..

How Much Am I Really Saving?

We get asked this all the time, how much is a saltwater generator really saving? Hearing that you can save as much as 40% or more with a salt pool is great and all, but sometimes it helps to look at real numbers!

Let’s take a look at the RJ45 salt chlorinator. It has the potential to produce as much as 1200 pounds of chlorine over its lifespan. If you purchased the complete system for $1499, compare that to the equivalent 1200 pounds worth of chlorine tablets, it would be $3600 if you got them cheaply on sale! That's huge savings (about 60% in that case).

After a number of years go by, the salt cell in your system does get used up while producing chlorine. At full price, a replacement salt cell for the RJ45 is $694, which typically means another 1200 pounds of chlorine at even greater savings.
