My old single speed pump finally died, so I had to buy a new VS pump. My question is how to wire it and program it to work with the SWG and the Barracuda G3 suction cleaner. The old pump was controlled by a simple Intermatic timer and the SWG is wired to the same times so that if the pump runs, the SWG runs.
Now how do I wire and control the SWG to work at the right time? Does it just always have power and only generate when it senses flow? What kind of pump program/schedule works best for a suction cleaner like the Barracuda? Also, none of the stuff I've read online has talked at all about different pump programs/schedules for different seasons, but here in Phoenix I've always run my pump much less in the cool months and more in the swimming months.
About my system:
Thanks,
John
