Hi all - my pool strangely does not have an overflow port. This is super annoying because hopefully I just happen to be home when we get 3" of rain in 1 day in Houston, and...I have to go out in the rain, turn the spigot on, set a timer on my iphone so I don't forget about it, then go back out in the pouring rain to shut it off. My main concern with current method is, aside from the annoyance and lack of remotely operating, is that I have to remember to go outside and turn it off. If I don't remember, I'm burning up a pump...
Anyone ever automate this by installing a valve actuator before the spigot? Any reason not to, or any tips? Anything that could go wrong here with this solution?
