    Flakey Pentair WiFi control

    Hi all, I have the newer Pentair system and controls that allows control via wifi on phone or tablet. Long story short, the system seems to always work as programmed but sometimes I can not manually operate the system. And it requires unplugging the inside equipment to reset. And that...
