Pros
- Right-sized for a typical ~20,000-gal pool (rated to 25,000), with the same 7-year warranty as the RJ-45 Plus
- No DIY-install penalty — buy online and self-install without voiding the warranty
- 3.7★ across 47 Amazon ratings, and buyable today
- The cheapest replacement cell on the page at $494 — about $99 a year on the same five-year basis we use for every cell
Cons
- Sized for pools up to 25,000 gal — a big pool wants the RJ-45 Plus (45,000) instead
- A quarter of its Amazon ratings (26%) are one star, the heaviest one-star share of the CircuPool systems here — the critical reviews describe units failing early and a warranty with fine print
- Direct-to-consumer brand with a smaller dealer/installer footprint than Pentair or Hayward
- Lower output (1.2 lb/day) than the bigger units — right for a typical pool, not a large one
