I am all for challenges but if you use a SuperFlo instead Intelliflo you could buy a Sonoff 4 Ch Pro v3 (27.00)and be able to control the pump over Wifi and use Alexa to turn on, off and change speeds. There is documentation in the SuperFlo on how to setup external relays to control the pump. I...

Stenner pumps are what your looking for. There are a few threads over in the SWG section. I have had mine going for 3 years now and besides the tube and a small battery it has been trouble free. If I where to do it all over again I would get one that just comes on with power and use a smart plug...

I think you could but the power wire would be coming out of the top of the pump and the motor may come in contact with the PCB.

Here is the link to Amazon for the exact one I purchased. Has been holding up great with no problems to speak of. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005T94MQU/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Steve they lasted about a year in direct sunlight. The clear tube only lasted a year too but it was covered by some white split loom to match the exterior. Just installed black tubing and new nuts with PVC cover. I will snap a photo when it stops raining.

Until the scale starts to build up :)

If you have Wifi within range of your Stenner Pump you could install a Smart Plug and ask Alexa or Siri to run your schedule. Change the chlorine or about to have a party it is a simple as talking to the the phone to run extra schedules or changing times. (Just make sure its rated 15 amps and is...

Use a stop watch and note the time it takes to fill a five gallon bucket. Note the time it takes to fill the pool. Pool Time \ Bucket Time x 5 = Pool Gallons

I have had my Stenner Pump for almost a year and wouldn't hesitate for a second to order a new one. I use to test every day but it gets boring seeing the same number over and over again. Now I am down to every 3 days when I am home. When I left for 3 weeks for work I filled the jug up and came...

I also ran into the same annoyance. I even called Taylor to see how much just ordering the case would cost and if I remember correctly it was over 50.00 plus shipping. Kind of a good thing because I would be even more annoyed. I ended up making my own out of a plastic ammo box. It allows me to...

If you don’t care who makes the tank I would try a car wash as they usually have barrels all the time for usually free. eBay and Craigslist are other options. At first I wanted a barrel that I could remove the lid and pour the Chlorine in. That was a mistake and now I use a jiggle syphon to...

I do have the check valve and it has not filled my tank. I believe most check valves require flow to operate and

The pumps that don't have a check valve are rated for 25PSI. But to be honest with you my tube sprung a leak most likely due to the sun deterring the material ( Purchased wrong tube) I had a small drip that had almost no pressure behind it.

In the Clearwater area. Raised to Slam levels. Lower to just below skimmer and threw in the navigator. Gonna secure the power to the pump tomorrow in case of flooding.

Are you sure you a 30k pool. You look about my size which is 13k. Maybe you are deeper than me but usually 30k pools are huge.
