Spa return jets work in spa and spillway modes, but not in pool/auto mode. Valves in pool/auto mode are set to return water to the pool and the spa. I have to run my pump at 2100 rpms to get even a slight return to the spa in pool/auto mode.

There is no water returning to the spa when in solar and pool/modes; but there is water returning to the spa when the spillway is on. In pool mode, the diverter valve is set to return water to the pool and the spa. The diverter and check valves seem to be ok. Not sure where to go with this...

In pool mode, my valves are set to return water to the pool and the spa. Typically, this results in a small stream of water coming over the spillway. Today I noticed that there is no water coming over the spillway. Any advice is appreciated.

With solar on, is the three-way solar diverter valve in this picture in the correct position or should it be rotated 180 degrees so that the closed arrow is pointing towards the heater? Thanks for your help.

When in pool mode and with solar off, the solar diverter valve moves to the open position. Until I figure this out, I have unplugged the valve actuator from the controller board and put it in the off position. I need help to figure out why this is happening and how to correct it. I have a...

Can the toggle switch on an actuator be replaced or do I need to purchase a new actuator?

I used my spa last night and turned it off when finished. I woke up this morning to find that my spa was completely empty and my pump won't prime (basket won't fill with water). The level of my pool water did not change. My spa is connected to my pool. My VS pump sounds louder than normal...

All of a sudden my filter pressure is low (5 psi) and no water coming out of return jets.

I am unable to remove Waterway Poly Storm spa jet/diffuser (tab model) from my gunite spa. I can't turn it counterclockwise beyond the stop point or pull it out. I am afraid to turn/pull too hard for fear of damaging jet housing. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

I have a Pentair ET 4 controller and the previous owner set the spillway up as Aux 3. Can I change it to a Feature circuit to free up Aux #? How to I reprogram the spillway so that it does not run continuously when the pool pump is on? I would like it to run a couple of times a day for about...

I have a Sta Rite System 3 Filter that leaks when the solar comes on (and does not leak when the solar is off). The leak comes from under two adjacent clamps that hold the top and bottom of the housing. It seems to be seated correctly and the O ring is in good shape and is lubricated. Not...

I have a 10,000 gallon chlorine pool and my house is next to open space. My TDS is high (3100), but all other chemicals are within range. What would cause this and do I need to be concerned? We have had a lot of smoke in the air recently due to wildfires. Thanks, John

I have a 10,000 gallon pool/spa combination with solar heating and a Sta Rite System 3 filter. I had it cleaned last November and it has stayed at 8-10 psi since then, except when I run the spa or solar. Do I need to have the filter cleaned again this spring or can I wait until the fall?

I have a 10,000 gallon pool and a 700 gallon connected spa, and an Intellipro VS-3050 pump. At what speeds should I run my pump in pool and spa modes? During the winter, it's currently set to run at 2100 for four hours/day in pool mode and during the summer at 2100 for eight hours/day. The spa...

I have a Pentair Easy Touch Pool and Spa Control System. How do I run my pump/filter outside of scheduled hours? My filter/pump runs daily from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the summer. On nights when I shock the pool, I need it to run overnight? How do I do this?

My spa is attached to the pool. Do I need to test the water in each separately or can I just test the pool water?
