Hi, we just got our pool up and running and I am learning how to use the automation we have (first time pool owner so sorry for any newbie questions). It is basically just the spa and heater that we can control from our phone at this point. That being said we have four deck jets that have individual valves (blue valves below). Is there an easy way to add automation for those as well so that I could turn them on from my phone?99580
 
Unless I am looking at it wrong, no, that plumbing set up does not let you control anything other than directing the water to the spa or all the other stuff.

It could have been set up that way, but it would take a massive replumb to make it work.
 
05,

The easiest thing to do would be to add a Jandy valve right where it says "Fountain".. You would have to replumb the water going the 4 blue valves to a new manifold connected to the output of the new valve, but turning on the new valve would then supply water to all four deck jets.. The blue valves would be used to initially set the pressure going to each jet. Assuming you have an EasyTouch, you can't automate all 4 jets individually, but you can control at least one Jandy valve plus your Intake and Return valves that switch between the Pool and Spa.

You cannot automate the blue valves themselves...

Thanks,

Jim R.
