    Need help with Pentair Easytouch

    I noticed there seems to be a SLAM versus a SHOCK. I just put in chlorine/bleach and then shock and run pump high for three hours, but I watched the SLAM video, and it is more like running for 24 hours and checking for high chlorine levels. Is that the difference?

    Good news. Running at 1500rpm, my system seems to work fine now! I am hoping this tames my algae problem. Will keep reporting.

    Okay, so I will plan to run my pool at 1500rpm continuously! Let's see if that gets rid of the cycling on and off. It is disappointing that the SVRS which is designed to protect the pump makes it too sensitive to faults

    What RPM would you run? It was not doing well at 1000rpm, so maybe 1250? 1500 draws 200 watts, so I just want to think about energy usage also

    Now I understand a little more about the SVRS Intelliflo. I have always had problems with the Darn thing just shutting off on me. For example, I would go on vacation, and when I come back, there is an algae bloom, and the pump was off -- Blockage. I am really happy that I installed this...

    I believe I have an antenna for the REMOTE and not for Screenlogic, as there is not a protocol adapter at the router. The Cycling up and down has been going on for a while, and I could not figure it out. But, I think I am making progress with your help. I will have to get pictures later, as...

    I have a DE filter, and I backwashed and then added another eight pound bag of DE to the skimmer basket Water level is a little low, but I added some so that the water goes into the skimmer basket, and the leaves and debris don't backwash out the weir door When the pump is on, there is...

    Yes. You are right about the pressure side cleaner. I have a separate pump, and I have to empty the bag for debris. I increased the rpm just now, but I still don't know why it cycles up and down like that, unless that is normal behavior for the Intelliflo pump. I just looked up the app, and...

    I don't have screen logic, but it sure sounds like a next "logical" purchase I do have a ?infloor? Polaris pump that does turn on appropriately. I just did some more youtube learning, and I did find that my "Pool" intelliflow variable speed pump was set to 1000 rpm, and I saw that there was 0...

    I have owned my pool for eight years. Increasingly, I am finding problems with it. I just increased solar, and so I am trying to maximize solar energy use. I programmed the schedule to run the pool pump from 10am to 4pm. However, the pump comes on really strong and then after five minutes shuts...
