Hi there! Just officially joined the forums, but have to admit - I've been lurking and reading and have appreciated the incredible knowledge and advice that everyone is sharing!
We've had some major back yard remodeling which has resulted in pretty much a complete replacement of all pool equipment and renovating the pool itself. It's just about a week into being filled back up and getting restarted - and I'm trying to get familiar with all the new toys.
I have an EasyTouch load center panel - and have also added in an UltraTemp heat pump. I'm trying to figure out how to get the setup to maintain a consistent temperature for the pool (no spa, just pool). I've scheduled the pump to run for about 9 hours at 1500 RPM (its an IntelliFlo VS). When the pump kicks on, the UltraTemp kicks in too and starts to work to bring the pool up to temp. But... when the schedule is complete, the pump and UltraTemp turn off - even though the temp hasn't been reached.
How should I have things configured so that the UltraTemp can keep the pool at a consistent temp? I hate the idea of running the IntelliFlo all day if I don't have to (or am I nuts to not want to do that?).
Apologies in advance if it's been answered - I tried some searching and didn't find a situation that seemed to deal with this. Thanks for your help!
