Thanks for the review. After 15 years my Intelliflo is not working anymore. I can opt to replace the driver but might go with a new pump Pentair IntelliFlo3 VSF . I will order the one with the optional touchscreen. I wonder if I can use both? The touchscreen and my phone as well. Does...

Update: measured at the four pin hole points where the SWG connects to the Power Center and it reads 27.8 Pentair telling me that I need to pay for a professional electrician to verify the IChlor is defective. Is this normal?

Hello, I replaced my IC40 after 9 years with the IChlor 30 from Pentair. I bought it on Ebay but after 1 week there is no power. I have done the following: 1. Checked the connections from the IChlor to the Power Center to ensure they are snug and secure. 2. I have checked the breaker box...

Hello, Just wanted to share found Pool Salt for $2.10 at Lowes in Fresno CA. http://http://www.lowes.com/pd_15203-62226-N/A_0__?productId=3158693 I had to do a partial drain on my pool due to high CH levels :cool:

Update: I did clean filter and checked skimmer basket but the problem continues. It is an intermittent issue. My pump is scheduled to come on at 6:30 am, pump humming away, return jets working, but Pool Cleaner sitting still. When I manually move the valve around I can hear a swoosh of water...

I will clean filter its been two months since cleaning. Skimmer basket not dirty. I will keep monitoring it. Thanks

I have The Pool Cleaner and I notice that every once in a while its not moving at all. The pump is on, return jets are working, but the pool cleaner is still. The only way to get it to move without turning off my pump is to manually move the Jandy valve (I am guessing the one that controls the...

Wow! That is some good savings. I have the Pool Cleaner and it does not run too well at those low speeds. I guess I could vacuum the pool manually and reap the power savings. Here in California or in my area its at .32 kWh on the Tier 4 range. I average about .19 kWh. Thanks for sharing...

Update to issue: I ordered new replacement cartridge filters and installed them and it appears the problem is solved. I still have same set up as previous but now I am showing 500 watts instead of 725. Start time 6:30 am End time 1:50 pm Gpm is 45 Wattage 500 Rpm 1850 Pressure is way down...

Hi, I hope this is not a dumb question but here goes. I have noticed that my pump appears to have gotten less efficient in its ability to pump water. I was told by the manufacturer that this variable speed pump calculates the rpm on the following: Gallons per minute, How many turnovers of...

Thank you for your response. I will keep an eye out for the increased pressure. Good to know it is normal for them to last a long time if handled carefully.

Hello, I have a Pentair Clean and Clear Plus 420 with 4 Cartridges. I had the pool built in 2008 and have had the same cartridges since. I have cleaned them often and once with TFP. At what point should I replace them? There are no tears but they look discolored (yellowish). I recently...

Just quick update: When I inspect the cell the plates inside look the same with some buildup but it is working. Now that the water temp is at 70 all the green lights are on and it is producing chlorine. I have tested the chlorine levels and it is maintaining. Thanks for your help.

Thanks for your suggestions. The salt is at 3800. I will try the automatic dish soap. Dave
