    Sta-Rite Max-E 400 Display

    Thanks for the info. Just had a chance to try out some of the suggestions. The stack temp is what is displaying. If I hit the on button, it will change to water temp. But after a bit always goes back to stack temp. Initial startup shows water temp, once heating kicks on it goes to stack temp...

    Sta-Rite Max-E 400 Display

    Hello, Have the above heater which controlled by Screen Logic. Noticed on the last few spa heatings, the heater just shuts off before reaching set temp. Noticed it kicks off around 85F. It never kicks back on. I have to toggle the spa on and off using the Screenlogic app, then it fires back up...

    Time for a New Polaris - Help Deciding

    Robots are great, but can tell you that Polaris has a real issue with quality on their robots. My 9550 Sport model needs repair in under 4 years. From what I hear, not uncommon. I took great care of it too. Repairs are expensive, almost price of a new robot. It is a real shame as it was a very...

    Advice on Repair or just replace Polaris 9550 Robot

    Wanted to see if anyone had advice on whether to repair or just replace my Polaris 9550 Sport. It is almost 5-years old, and looks to have a bad cord. From what I see, you can replace yourself for about $200-300. The pool store place I use said it will cost almost $400 from him to replace. The...

    Possible Pentiar Globrite Failed

    Hello, Looking for some help on Globrite light. Noticed that the light in my Spa started acting funny. Didn't go out completely, just cycled to a low dim blue. Tried resynching, changing schemes, turning off and on. Each time it would come back on like normal, then cycle back to the low dim blue...

    IntelliChem System

    Hello All, Do you know if you can use the Pentair IntelliChem controller for just monitoring your pool levels, but not hooked up to external pumps for adding chems? I am ok with adding chems myself, just looking for a lazy way to know my levels. Not quite sold yet on adding the Acid and Chlorine...

    Pentair Screenlogic app on Android....too many AUX and Features buttons

    HI, do you have the software loaded on your computer too? If so, go into the screenlogic program. When you are at the screen asking for system info, bottom right is a tab for "Configure Screen Logic". A new screen will load and you will have to click another button configure screen logic. A new...

    Help with Scum Line

    Hi, First year owner. Managing my own chems. I thought I was keeping up on everything over the winter. Recently, as I let the water evaporate down to fix some grout cracks noticed a pretty significant scum line at where the water level normally sits. I used the magic eraser pads and they seem to...

    What should I do during and after a storm?

    Not to crash your thread, but I do love the stone/rock you used to face the wall. That was the look I was going for but we ended up selecting a cheaper stone tile. Looks okay but if you don't seal with a wet look seal the tile looks very drab. One of these days I will post the question in a...

    New to Automation - Screen Logic Vs Autelis. Aqua Link vs Pentair? Works with Alexa?

    I can confirm that Alexa works with Pentair. You can use to turn on/off circuits mostly. Doesn't change Spa Temps or anything very specific, but typically you set your preferred spa temp in the Pentair App and don't change much. It will tunr on Spa to most recent temp setting. You can also ask...

    Newbe Needs Robot

    That is a large pool. I think at worst you will have to put your controller closer to the pool. If you can put your controller closer to the pool, and in the middle, according to my geometry you will only need 37' to each corner. Note I did not factor depth and it is probably not recommended to...

    Does anyone have anything bad to say about saltwater pools?????

    My opinion, you can always add a Salt generator later right? Run a season without and see how bad it is adding liquid. I found that I do not have to add the amount of liquid chlorine as was quoted in this thread, "1/3 bottle per day". Rarely did I go over a bottle a week. We live in a very hot...

    Can't make final decision on pool builder-please help!

    I have a Polaris 9550 Sport. It works great. I did opt for the one with remote control just to see what it is like, but its not really worth it. I choose this model based on its ability to do the climb the walls and scrub the water line. It does this perfectly with no issue. I have a lot of...

    Can't make final decision on pool builder-please help!

    I just finished a build earlier this year. Not knowing much about pools a pressure side pool cleaner was included. Hated it from the beginning. Never covered the whole pool, was always trying to adjust just to get it to the shallow end. I bought a robo cleaner and have not been unhappy. Greatest...
