The Hayward TurboCell S318 18,000 Gallon Clear Salt Cell forms the core of Hayward’s salt chlorine generating systems, converting dissolved salt into a continuous supply of chlorine for consistent, automatic sanitization. It delivers naturally soft water that helps reduce eye irritation, skin dryness, and fabric fading while maintaining steady chlorine output.

Its clear housing allows quick inspection and promotes lower scaling with reduced headloss compared to traditional TurboCell models. NSF certified for chlorine output, it integrates with AquaRite, AquaTrol, AquaRite S3, OmniPL, and Omni systems and is part of a lineup sized for 40,000, 25,000, and 15,000 gallons. Larger or multiple cells can support arid, tropical, or commercial applications where higher chlorine demand or local codes require increased capacity.

The Hayward Expert Line logo shown on a transparent background, featuring the words “EXPERT LINE” in bold, uppercase, sans serif lettering rendered entirely in solid black. The word “EXPERT” appears on the left, followed by a visually distinctive stylised “X” that is wider and more angular than the surrounding letterforms, acting as a central visual anchor within the logo. This stylised X is formed using sharp, intersecting diagonal strokes that create a strong, geometric appearance, subtly separating “EXPERT” from “LINE” while drawing emphasis to the centre of the logo. The word “LINE” appears to the right in matching black uppercase lettering, aligned on the same baseline with consistent stroke weight and spacing. There is no mention of the Hayward name within the logo, no colour accents, no gradients, no outlines, no shadows, no icons, and no additional graphic elements. The minimalist black typography relies on high contrast against the transparent background, ensuring clarity and legibility when overlaid on any surface while conveying a premium, professional, trade focused brand identity.
