intelliflo

Hi, I've seen this question asked several times here on TFP but was looking for more specific info. TFP suggested creating a new thread, so apologies in advance for asking a similar pool pump comparison question. I have a 2014 Pentair Whisperflo 2HP pump that works well in my 19K inground...

I already replaced it with the “better quality” Seal (Chemical/Salt Resistant, P/N: 071732S) from the Seal Quick Kit (P/N: 356198) together with the rest of the o-rings and gasket, but I am very surprised this already happened, since I bought the pump (P/N: 011056) brand new last September...

Hi, I had a power outage at my house and now my Pump is turning On and Off by itself. I already turned off the breaker for five minutes and reset the scheduling. The Pump is still turning On and Off by itself. I can’t identify the problem. Any suggestions?

Hello, I have a Pentair EasyTouch connected to a Intelliflo 2 VST. It has been installed and functioning normally for about 5 years. The pump is being called for by the EasyTouch system, but is not starting. In the iOS app, I have a system alert: Pump 1: Communication Lost I believe we...

I've had my pool-spa for 20+ years. I use the spa almost every night. I switched over to an intelliflo pump, controller 5 years ago. It's worked great except for the alexa function that disengages for some reason after it's added as a skill. In the last 6 months, the pump will sometimes...

Finally an opportunity for a little bit of give back on this forum. With some support and encouragement from my friend @Jimrahbe I purchased this new Intelliflo3 VSF pump mostly because the previous model was infinitely backordered. I am so glad I did, so far I love this pump! Here is my...

The pump had been leaking for a couple of years and I finally decided to replace it. I found the motor on amazon and so I ordered a new motor and seal plate. I kept the wet side and control panel from the original. After watching some videos I replaced the motor. Seemed like it went well...

I have an approx 8-year-old system consisting of a Pentair Easy Touch 8 controlling an Intelliflo VS pump. It's been running great until the pump filter breaker went out. I turned off the main breaker, installed the new breaker and everything appears to work (including manually running the...

Seems my intelliflo is dead (7 years). It happened while away. The control panel no longer works at all. I measured everything and electricity is being delivered. I had a VS 3hp. Have these pumps been discontinued? The prices seem very very high for a replacement. My pool is about 12k gallons...

Since I replaced my Pentair Intelliflo pump, the communication will cease between the pump and my easy touch panel. They will talk and work fine together for a few days and then all communication stops. After I cut the power to both the panel and pump, let sit for about 5 minutes and turn back...

My local Pentair authorized installer just installed my new Intellipro VSF in a way that seems contrary to the instructions in the manual. There are 2 issues: The suction inlet pipe is much shorter than recommended and there are elbows very close to although not directly connected to the...

Hi all! This is my first post, and I'm a complete newbie on pools, but I am enjoying reading these posts, and look forward to learning and helping more in the future. Today my pool installer and I encountered an interesting issue on my new pool/spa. He'll call Pentair on Monday, but I thought...

Just got our pool finished and everything has been working great for the past two weeks until today. I have a pool with connected spa that overflows into the pool. Equipment is an Easy Touch 8 and an Intelliflo VS pump system with one pump that services both the pool and the spa with automatic...

I am about to install the Pentair 521107 Easytouch upgrade for my current Compool LX3800 system. I was wondering if any of the experts or those experienced with this upgrade have come into this. Sigle Body System: First of all, when I reviewed the installation instructions, the first thing I...

We recently added an Intelliflo VSP with our aging Autopilot ST220 Salt Generator system. The system appears to be working well, however when programming or pausing manual mode the pump is NOT running and noticed the Autopilot control board is still lit up. I assume the ST220 is still sending...

Hi all, my pool build finished in June. Long time lurker of the forum, but first post (hopefully I've followed all the rules properly vis-a-vis profile, signature etc). I've since purchased and installed an IntelliConnect and I've upgraded my pump to an Intelliflo VSF so I can automate filter...

I'm a new pool owner and my pool builder has been a bit lacking on the education front. I feel like a bonehead, but I cannot figure out how to get schedules that use different pump speeds. I'm not sure where I will land speed/schedule wise, but those particulars aside I cannot figure out what...

Hey everyone, I spent my holiday weekend rebuilding my Pentair IntelliFlo pump (PN: 011018). I figured I'd share some takeaways as it was not hard to do and these pumps are not the cheapest, so I think repair should be the way to go (if possible). My pump was manufactured in 2014, I do not know...

Hello. We installed a new Intellicenter late last year and have been having a lot of issues. First of all, it seems somehow my pump is no longer communicating with the automation, as the screen on the pump itself is active and the Intellicenter is reporting "communication lost". Additionally, I...

Hi all, new to the forum, thanks in advance for any help you can offer. I have an EasyTouch4, Intelliflo VSF, iChlor, and Screenlogic2 connected to J20. It was all working fine until a bad storm rolled though. Because so many things were not working, I replaced the main board. Currently, I...

First time post, but have really appreciated all the advice in other forums in the first year I've owned my pool. Both my filter and pump have leaks and the valves also need to be replaced. The pool is about 15k gallons and the pump is 2in pipe 35ft to 1st skimmer, 65 ft to 2nd skimmer. No...

Hi, I've read around the forum, but I can't seem to find a similar post, so here we go... I came home to find that my pool pump was not running. Went down to check it out and found the the Pentair 220amp GFCI breaker was tripped in the control cabinet. I tried to reset it and it immediately...

Hello - I have the Intelliflo VSF with the control panel (which is remote), it is great to set the pump schedule, but I want to connect my MasterTemp heater to run (have power) only when the pump runs. I have an intelliChlor which came with a communication cable that I do not use because it is...

Greetings from the mountains in Colombia! entering 3 months of lockdown now, finally can get out of the house more than once a week. In the meantime, I've been developing an automation system for my rainwater system and pool chemistry. See pic I monitor pH, hardness, filter pressure (pool and...

I have gained some good advice combing through the equipment threads in my quest to purchase a new pump, but need some specific advice. My primary objectives are to significantly reduce noise and save energy costs. So ... I had every intention of replacing my existing 1.5HP single speed pump...

First, a quick word of thanks to all who participate here. I've learned a great deal over the years about chemistry, troubleshooting and equipment selection. == IntelliConnect Mini-Review I recently overhauled my outdoor pool and selected the IntelliConnect to control my new Pentair...

I recently had my main controller board fixed and I just reinstalled it. I can control the cleaner and I can hear the "clicks" when I activate the main filter pump. However, the pump is not recognizing the Intellitouch and is in manual mode (working just fine otherwise). I wonder if it could be...

I currently have an Pentair VS Intelliflo pump and I want to enjoy my pool more than worrying about the chemicals in this hot SoCal Inland Empire weather. So I have decided to install a SWG but have a few questions first because of the VS pump I have. Hopefully, some of our members can chime...

Hi. My Pentair Intelliflo XF was leaking at the base where the motor meets the pump a few weeks ago. I replaced the shaft seal, diffuser and main o-rings. After, no leaking, then about a week to 10 days goes by and the leak is back. When replacing the shaft seal, the old one did not look...

Hi all, I recently had an IntelliFlo installed. The installer set the pump to run at 2500 RPM when the system is in pool mode. In that mode, the spa's spillway is active and flows the water from the spa to the pool. However, I cannot feel any water flow coming from the pool returns. I can...
