I installed a Pentair Intelliflo 011018 VS pump in 2013 and have loved every minute of the ease of use. I have an intermatic timer that operates the pump and SWG from 08.00-20.00 with three periods of higher RPM to skim the surface. A couple of weeks ago, the water temp rose above 60 and I started the SWG again. I noticed that the RPMs were not correct (low flow on SWG due to time of pump being overnight which is set to 450 RPM) and discovered that the internal clock on the pump is reverting back to midnight when it turns off. I have used the work around of keeping the pump running 24/7 and all seems to be working. Is there a fix for the clock issues (I found a couple of old threads from '19 and before with no solution)? Are there any other issues I should be on the look out for? I am going away for a long weekend in a couple of weeks and want to be sure I can leave with peace of mind that all will be well when I return. To be clear, I will buy another Pentair VS pump in a heartbeat when this one completely fails.
Thank you in advance.
