Yep, that is very similar to what I have. There is a s a port right under my skimmer. Thanks!

Thanks Jim. Sounds like my set up is not common. Must be why. Couldn’t find any info on it.

Hi All, I’ve searched, but I can’t seem to find any info for the proper setting of the skimmer valve on the return side. I have a 12,000 gallon pool with a spa and one skimmer. I understand the valve settings on the suction side and I have both the main drain and skimmer valve set to full open...

Spillover mode is just what I named the function. My pool pump normally runs at 1750 rpms in "pool" mode, just as your set up is (most water going to pool returns with some going to the spa). When I turn on my "spillover" mode the pump simply runs at 3450 rpms which makes the water coming over...

You can definitely program a schedule for your spillover, that's what I did for my spa (don't ask me how I did it, because I can't remember). You can also adjust the valves to get the spill over cascading water as opposed to dribbling it down the stone face, but you have to be careful to not...

We are near Denton and we paid right at $55k for the pool pictured in my avatar. The pool dimensions are similar, but we also added a spa and heater. Our equipment is Jandy (all remote controlled via app/computer), but we don't have a sanitizer. We also only did about 70 ft of flagstone decking...

Thanks for the replies!

Hi All! I'm a new pool owner in North Texas with a question about pump run times in warm climates during the off season. Here in the Dallas area we don't get a ton of below freezing days during the off season. Most pool owners that I've talked to in my area say that they don't "close" their...

When building our pool my brother, who has had 3 different pools over the years, warned me that the PBs would try and sway me to a chlorine pool. His feeling was that they did so in hopes that with a chlorine pool you would be more likely to use the PBs maintenance services instead of DIY if you...

Good to know, thanks.

T Thanks! Yeah, during the after plaster care stage they had it rolling full blast 24/7 to where it was a nice sheet of water going into the pool water. I turned the rpms down to 2200 and it flows into my into the pool, but it dribbles down the wall of the spa then into the pool. I also...

Thanks for the help guys. I have looked through the settings and am still having a tough time understanding. I downloaded the owners manual from Zodiac, but the terminology in the steps they list doesn't exactly match up with the terms in the settings, so I'm still confused? I think my best bet...
