    Spa jets stop working for overflow into pool

    Thanks. I did mention in the initial post that I thought the timing of when the problem started aligned with the solar heat installation, but I couldn't say for sure (now I know). The lowest I can run the pump and the solar heat without getting bubbles in the return is 1600 RPM. I just don't run...

    Spa jets stop working for overflow into pool

    Thought I'd update on my findings. I cleaned my filter and that didn't solve the issue, but after some more troubleshooting and thinking things through it appears that even though 1100RPM used to be enough for the spa overflow to work in the past, this speed is now too low with the solar heating...

    Spa jets stop working for overflow into pool

    Thank you very much for your response. I am definitely due for my spring filter cleaning so hopefully that solves the issue. Have had a few other home projects the past 5-6 months and just haven't been able to get to the filter. The filter pressure still reads at a reasonable level, but I do...

    Spa jets stop working for overflow into pool

    Thanks! I am optimistic this is the issue, which now gives me even more incentive and motivation to clean the filters sooner rather than later.

    Spa jets stop working for overflow into pool

    Hello. I have a VSP running 24/7 at various speeds and at some point during the day overflow from spa into pool stops working. The filter pump is on, the pool returns are flowing water, but the spa returns have stopped flowing water. I don't believe that the stoppage occurs in alignment with a...

    Rust markings along pool bottom

    Thank you. I had the same thought regarding the lack of any direct pattern. The only other thing I can think of is that they are building a new ADU on our neighbor's property about 15 feet away from pool edge so it could be nails or screws. I haven't picked anything up in my robot, though. I...

    Rust markings along pool bottom

    Hello. These rust marks have started to appear along the bottom of my pool. Could these possibly be from the rebar given their shape/size? If so, is there any major concern? It's not ideal, but I can live with it from an aesthetic perspective. I am more concerned about whether it is something...

    New Pentair Intellibrite Lights Not Connecting to Alexa

    I didn't change Alexa. I just changed out the light fixtures and the connection through Alexa broke for whatever reason. I just reset my AquaLink transponder and also disabled/renabled iAqualink skill in Alexa and it picked up the new lights! All good now...catstrophe averted...ha. Thanks for...

    New Pentair Intellibrite Lights Not Connecting to Alexa

    I changed it because I wanted new lights. I recognize that it shouldn't matter...that's why I am asking the question because it isn't working the way it is supposed to.

    New Pentair Intellibrite Lights Not Connecting to Alexa

    Hello all. I have an iAqualink RS system and recently changed out my white lights for Pentair Intellibrite colored lights. The Pentair lights are controllable via the iAqualink app, but the voice control through Alexa is not working. I tried disabling the iAqualink skill in Alexa and...
