Good news: problem solved! Bad news: problem self-inflicted (guessing not so uncommon) As I mentioned in an earlier post about my unnecessary Aux-4 blower, I wound up cutting it out for the time being to re-position my new vs pump and my old booster. While doing that i thought it would be a...

Yes, the 2" plumbing was rebuilt, but the design remains the same. I added a straight pipe to feed the intake (per pentair's priming requirements) as my old design was basically feeding the intake with a 45 degree elbow. I had to add a new 3-way jandy never lube valve in front of the pump for...

Interesting about the blower...I have one hooked up to my Aux-4 but never used it on the old single-speed pump because the spa action with the pump alone was quite enough. when I did run the blower it was way, way too much to the point of ridiculous...so we never used it (even my teenage kids...

Yes, the gauge is odd, measured in kg/cm squared, must be replacement from previous owner. Never gave it much attention as the old single-speed pump always was pegged at the 1 mark and ran great (just expensive) Its a good gauge for "spinal tap" references (this one goes to 4.2). Truth in...

"Pool with spillover" for me implies that I'm getting a water feature with my elevated spa + normal pool circulation. How can that be done without a spa make-up valve? Don't think that can be done with just one return valve, something to consider. I recommend the "classic way" as described...

First post, thanks in advance for any help you can provide on this issue. I replaced my 9 yr old single-speed 2HP pump with a new Pentair VS 3HP pump (11018). I've got it hooked up to a Zodiac (Jandy) iAqualink kit and everything is working great. That is everything except when I run the spa...

This is an outstanding post and saved me hours from troubleshooting a setup/integration process that is just not well documented or communicated by the suppliers. Thank you JSTEXASPOOL! I probably would not have attempted this without this post. For my situation, I had an existing iaqualink...
