    Pentair Freeze Protection

    Does anyone have any advice on freeze protection? When my temp senses the “activation temp 36°) on my unit, it will cycle on/off like mad if the ambient just hovers there. Once it get colder (34,33,32 etc) it stay running like a champ. Only when everything is stable right at that 36° threshold...

    Sorry just seeing this. I do not have a SWG. My pool is just a standard chlorine. My pump has black/white. The black is the ground.

    Thanks for the reply. My goal was to mimic the IntelliPh operation the best I could…short doses throughout the day. I have a home on the coast with a SW pool that I also run an IntelliPh on that’s hooked up the way it’s supposed to be, with the salt cell in line. So far it works flawlessly and...

    Looked everywhere for a reason why and intelliPh wouldn’t work without a salt cell. Spoke to Pentair tech line. Guy said no way. I asked if proper voltage was applied to the pump would it run? He agreed it would. I told him that’s good enough for me so I ordered to $400 tank/pump combo (522472)...

    I’m breaking barriers tomorrow. Will be hooking up an intelliPh using a series of power supplies, relay, and digital timer. I’ll update if anyone’s interested. I need 2 power supplies due to my timer being 12v
