CircuPool SJ55
#12 in Large PoolsFull review
A basic, budget-minded salt system for large pools whose owners want to avoid acid cell cleaning; the short warranty and high salt level are the trade-offs.

CircuPool RJ45+
#14 in Large PoolsFull review
A straightforward DIY salt system for pools up to about 45,000 gallons that shows the salt level on its screen; the warranty is shorter than the 7-year headline suggests.
