    Spa draining water into pool

    You might have an obstruction/ crack in those two jets producing little flow. To resolve a clogged line, you can get a drain king which attaches to a water hose and you put it directly into the jet it will then decompress itself to secure itself to the pipe and then creates water pressure until...

    Can't get cc down

    Cc (trichloramines) elimination requires daily supershocking(twice as much as you would put in normally to raise FC from a zero ppm to 3 ppm) and running the system continuously until the cc disappears. It usually takes 3-4 days for a standard 15-20k pool to eliminate the trichloramines using...

    Time for a new pump? But which one?

    The prices are fairly similar across the board, and is based largely on what festures are built in. The unique differences are in the features each pump provides. The comparison charts are fairly self explanatory in what each pump provides. A TriStar VS pump would be the ideal choice to suit...

    Inspect Cell... But Cell is 9 weeks old

    The acid process is to remove calcium buildups, as this would be a brand new cell. There should be no need to do the acid wash process. You should be able to just rinse the cell completely then look at the sensor rods, situated between the flow switch and the anode rods and ensure there is no...

    Inspect Cell... But Cell is 9 weeks old

    You may need to reset the cell by unplugging it then waiting a moment before plugging it back in. Also sometimes the filter might be having issues and passing debris through and that gets stuck in the salt cell. So you might want to check that while you wait for the power cycle to complete...

    Leaky Pump? Any Guesses?

    Having a swg has no impact, and that pump will have the option to adjust speeds from low to high, low to maintain circulation while keeping energy costs down, high for a few hours to help with turnover rate and catch debris. As far as the original pump picture shows, you will have room for the...

    Pentair Intelliflo VS - Frozen screen and no Comm? is the drive unit dead?

    Yes per your automation, an Intellicomm is needed to adapt the intelliflo pump to your Jandy automation. In this case, relay switches are used in conjunction with the com wire in order to operate the pump at 4 available preset speeds. It is a workaround to make both brands compatible. I would...

    Pentair Intelliflo VF Clock Backup Battery?

    The only way pentair will "provide" a new drive unit replacement is via warranty. There's really no user serviceable parts inside the drive unit as it is supposed to be hermetically sealed from factory to end of life. You could though find replacements via resellers, the model numbers would need...
