I would suggest for anything not working, try deleting and recreating your pumps, and also circuits. Seems to be unable to recognize a previous pump if any changes were inadvertently made.

Ok finally figured it out after multiple attempts. For whatever reason I had to delete the 2nd pump and add it anew. Then recreated the associated circuits just to be sure. Stuff was mostly working but spillway didn’t switch off despite turning it off in the app/panel so I rolled back to the...

Ok never mind, circuit randomly had the type changed to generic instead of spillway. Got that working at least. Feature pump still goofy though.

Yea it is, still nothing. Pretty annoying you can’t roll back.

They bricked my spillover and my feature pump somehow. Weirdly, the 2nd pump that runs the bubblers and cleaners won’t turn on if I activate either of those features individually, but it will turn on if I activate both of them at the same time, which makes no sense. Spillover runs, but it...

I would: 1. Lose the infloor system unless they can show you a couple customers who are happy with what it does. 2. Drop the chlorinator, go salt. Drop whatever control system they have proposed and get an IntelliCenter. 3. Make sure your spa is 2.5 or 3” pvc. Pool returns and skimmers 1.5 or...

That's an intriguing idea. What kind of line do you attach it to?

What we need to make is the equivalent of a biliary sweep device. In the medical world, you can stick a thin tube up the common bile duct, past a bunch of debris or stones, inflate a balloon at the tip of said tube, then pull the tube backwards, sweeping all of the debris in the duct out into...

Don't have to run your pool much in the winter. I run it 6-8 hours a day at low rpm. If you have a variable speed, the cost is minimal. If you don't, you should get one.

It’s a lot less effort to just not close/open your pool. I am in Tulsa and it’s not difficult to leave it open year round. Might have to run 24/7 a bit during the cold snaps but that’s what freeze protect us for. Takes minimal chlorine and you don’t deal with an unbalanced mess when you open.

Sorry, that was kind of a wall of number filled text. Makes a lot more sense in my head as I've been thinking about it forever. Here are more pics. To clarify yes, I have spa/pool wall returns on the main circuit, and separate in floor returns on the 2nd pump, on the right. I guess what I...

Here I am again to pick the brains of those smarter than me in figuring out what to do here. I have attached my plumbing setup, which has unfortunately not changed since my previous post and remains, I think, definitely not the best. But that is a story for another time. I would like to focus on...
