Mknauss, understood regarding adherence to PA law. Based upon my initial review seems like their requirements are pretty basic, minimum FC, pH ranges, CYa seems to be a question, maybe more constraints based upon chlorine/cya probe challenges signature updated Thank you

Hello TFP It’s been awhile since I last posted, lots of changes and I need help. I’ve moved from Tennessee to Pennsylvania, now living in a 55+ community with a community pool and we need lots of help. Pennsylvania requirements are new to me, and the team (combination of community volunteers...

Interesting observations, I’ve used HP since year one, but once I adopted TFP recommendations for water balance the white scaling has not advanced.

Interesting!!! Thank you! helps to understand.

Thanks for all the great input and suggestion. Pentair identified a local service provider that came out and replaced the capacitor today. what Contributes to the capacitor failing? how long should this capacitor last?

Curious question: why did you not open a support ticket with Pentair to get warranty service on the unit? I ask as mine has also stopped heating/chilling and I’m trying to get Pentair to service/ replace under warranty.

Hey everyone, appreciate the suggestions. I was not clear in my first posting: 1. the unit is under warranty. 2. my basic question why would I attempt to repair and void the warranty? 3. why would I not request Pentair to replace the unit? i had assumed based upon the postings here, this seems...

Picture attached, I did check it appears to be ok, I see no melted wire, no burning, no smell of burnt wires, etc.

Hello all, Hope everyone has enjoyed their summer. My Pentair Ultratemp heatpump (heat and chill) has stopped working. Unit cycles thru water temp testing, initiates heat/cool cycle but compressor never engages, no heating/cooling. My issue is as follow - this is a replacement unit that is...

Dustin, I’m not the expert you need, but the first questions will be: 1. what test kit are you using? 2. how old are the regents ?

Zimdogg, I have SWG so don’t have to measure out liquids very often. MA to manage pH and liquid chlorine early spring and fall when water temps don’t support FC generation via the SWG. What I did is get a small inexpensive electronic scale with stainless steel bowel and a set of plastic...

Zimdogg, I’m not the expert that many of the others are but, if you get lots of rain like we do here in middle Tennesse, draining after rain storms will decrease CYA over time. we recently had three storms (in 5 days) that averaged between .8” to 1.5 inch, I had to drain after each of those...
