Not initially, will use the Intelliflo3 relays to control the valves to change from pool mode to SPA mode by using a Manual Program.

Great approach! If an IC30 is used at 50%, it will take about 7 hours to get from normal to SLAM levels considering the SPA volume of 700gal. It seems it shouldn't be an issue then.

Thanks all for the feedback! Running in SPA mode with the SWG with this configuration wouldn't the FC levels to rise too much? Would this require lowering the SWG output while in SPA mode? Below updated diagram.

I'm planning on starting the construction of a pool with flush spa during the upcoming weeks. The current plan is to use a single Intellifo3 pump and Intellichlor SWG for the water circulation/chlorination. The attached diagram shows the planned pool/spa piping and valve diagram. One of the...

Jim, Thanks for such quick reply. Attached a photo of the pump.

Hi All, A friend of mine just had their pool built. The builder told them an automation system was not compatible with their equipment. Unfortunately, they were not aware of his lack of knowledge on pool automation. They got a Pentair Superflow VST and a Hayward 50K Heat Pump. Now the question...

I currently have a 12.3GPD stenner pump with a rated 1.09 oz per minute. The measured flow rate was 0.99 oz per minute, slightly lower rate as specified. Because of the way a peristaltic pump operates I would not expect a flow increase when the injector is disconnected.

Today I found a leakage on the return fitting. A drop can be seen coming from the fitting outside thread. Attached a picture showing where the drop is forming. This is a 3 months old pool, so I think it might be too early for a bad inner gasket. The nut also seems to be properly tightened...

Hi Olga, Does your acid pump have a built-in timer?

It is indeed a dangerous bug. I’m planning to install a secondary timer connected to the filter pump timer. With this configuration I will energize the Stenner pump only during the first minutes of operation of the filter. This approach will require to synchronize the filter timer with the...

Hi, I’m currently using a Stenner Econ T pump to dispense liquid chlorine. During startup testing I found a situation that can potentially cause the pump to continue running and not stopping at the programmed time. Since I saw some users are also using this pump I just wanted to share the...
