I know this is an old thread and probably most in this forum has some form of Pentair Automation. Moved into the house in July 2020 and the system was a Intermatic 240v timer for the whisper flow pump and the lights and blower were all controlled with the X-10 automation devices. So since July...

Moved from here. I saw this post as I was looking through the forum. I currently have a whisper flow (what came with the system) but was wondering if you had any Comments on a pentair VS (011028) vs VSF (011056)? The the VSF is less expensive

Thanks
