    Solar actuator opens but doesn't close

    Hoping someone can help solve our issue with our solar system. We have Helicol solar panels (7), with a 3 way actuator. It's been working fine for about 6 years, but now on both heating and nocturnal cooling, the valve opens and the pump speed raises just fine. However, when the temp reaches...

    Replacing SWG with Intellichlor IC40

    We currently have a Breeze 540 SWG, Intellicenter 8, and Intelliflo VSF pump for an 11,000g pool. We are looking to replace the SWG with the intellichlor IC40. My question is: Since we have the Intellicenter, do we need the Power Center for the IC40, or will the Intellicenter provide the...

    Pentair High Power Wireless Link

    We just upgraded our Engenius to the Pentair High Power Wifi link kit (Part# 523434). Now we can connect "remote", but not "local". Our installer said the new system will not be able to use "local" anymore. Has anyone found a way to use it? Doesn't sound right to us. Using "remote"...

    IntelliCenter and Pump issue

    In the last several days we have noticed that our pump turns off, while running the schedule via IntelliCenter. It stays off for about 5 minutes and then turns back on. Today it turned off and then back on, multiple times within an hour period, without the 5 minute delay. We have checked that...

    Alexa and Pentair Automation

    Has anyone else noticed that the Alexa app and Apple watch for the Pentair Automated systems registers 2º lower temperatures for the pool than what the Pentair system registers? We have been in close communication with Pentair regarding this issue, but got thinking "could this just be us somehow?"

    Moved from here. Ron, Saw that you suggested the Maytronics cleaner. Our Pentair Rebel (came with the pool build), is dying and we are looking at robotics. Which model do you recommend, and does it work with Intellicenter? If so, how? Thanks, Gary and Peg

    Paraglo light and Intellicenter

    We just installed Intellicenter and found out that our older 12v 6" Concrete Paraglo multi-color light in our pool is not compatible with the Intellicenter system. Does anyone have suggestions for a Intellicenter compatible replacement model that will simply replace the bulb without having to...

    Pentair Servers down again

    Is it my imagination, or have the Pentair user portal servers crashed for the 3rd time in two days? After having the system for less than a week, I find this very troubling, as their product is advertised as the latest in technology. Unfortunately, with their servers down, that is a thought...

    Amazon Alexa and Intellicenter

    Just installed Intellicenter. We want to connect it to Amazon Alexa. Does it work with Amazon Echo and Echo Dot? If so, where can I find the "skill"? (Can only find "Hayward" and "iAqualink" skills). Do either of those work with Pentair Intellicenter?
