I have not explored creating a circuit but need to figure that out. I agree with you. I’m in GA and the number of days we have hard freeze is few and far between
I thought I would game the system by setting my pump to include spillway when pool was running and to schedule the pumps to run during night when it is coldest with the thought that the spa will be drawing from pool to support spillway feature and each night this set up would re-fill the spa...
I have owned inground pools for 20 years and have generally done my own maintenance. I have been in the home building business for 30 years. I like figuring things out and teach/helping others.
I am having the exact same problem. My pool is new so this is first year I am dealing with it. I spoke with Pentair rep and he said the spa typically loses some water whenever it goes from on to off and the constant cycling to protect the pump in cold weather results in a water level drop that...
