Title: Pool Equipment
Post by: Travis on December 18, 2013, 04:54:58 PM
So, I just got all of the furniture that I bought posted on Craigslist and I had a few items that I needed to research because I had no idea what they were worth. I was really surprised when I saw the value of this:

Turns out, it's some type of chlorine / salt regulator for pools. I wasn't able to find a complete system anywhere but the main controller is going for about $1500 on pool parts websites. The original 2 port cell (which is next to the controller) is apparently the rare piece. Replacements are selling in the $700 range so I can only image what an original would run.

I posted the image on a pool forum and I'm hoping someone can educate me on it's value as a complete system. I might wait until after Christmas and just let it ride on eBay.

Anyone know about this product? It's the Clormatic III (CM301)

My family is in the swimming pool business. That is an older system and I'm pretty sure the company that made it is out of business. You may find a buyer who needs it for parts though.

Yep, your right. The company got bought out and the new company is producing newer versions. I was able to locate an even older version, the Clormatic 2 that sold for about $280 on eBay. Hope it doesn't sell for that little, but if it does, I really can't complain since it was just another find in an already profitable unit.
