Frequently Asked Questions

Can I clean the old cell instead of replacing it?
No. Error 15 specifically indicates the cell has reached the end of its service life (typically 3-5 years). Cleaning will not resolve it.
How much does a replacement Jandy AquaPure cell cost?
Prices vary by model, typically between $300 and $600. Check your cell model for exact pricing.
Will the pool still filter water with error code 15?
Yes, the pump and filter will still run, but the chlorinator will stop producing chlorine, leading to algae and bacteria growth. Replace promptly.
What tools do I need to replace the cell?
You'll need a Phillips screwdriver and Teflon tape for the threads. No special tools are required.
Can I bypass error code 15 temporarily?
No, the system will not allow bypass. You must replace the cell to clear the error.
