Freeze Mode

[ajcoxfamily]

I live in the Houston area and we don’t get many freezes but we have four days next week bringing freezing temps. Our freeze mode will keep the pumps on and water circulating from spa to pool but it doesn’t kick on the water feature and I’m wondering if it should. Do you also run the water feature pump continuously? How about the pump for the vacuum?

It depends!! What automation system do you use? It may be able to activate Freeze Protection for all the pumps - not just the main filter pump.
I have Jandy AquaLink and this is its setup screen for Freeze Protection which allows me to select all 3 pumps - the main filter pump, the waterfall pump and the cleaner pump.
