How do I get a ballpark figure of how much it would cost to raise the temp of a 22,000 gal pool 10 degrees. We are located in Palm Springs so it is warm during day now in October but cool at night 50-60F. Heater is pentair Mastertemp 400. Cost of natural gas is ?? $2/therm ??? Do you lose all...

My relatively new Pentair Herater was working fine with the old Intellicenter 2 App, then I switched over to the Pentair Home app. I never tried to use heater until now a month later for the Spa. It does not show up on the DASHBOARD when using the Spa. Now it seems to work when using the pool...

On the pool we just finished the pool builder skimped on the pool filler. It actually looks exactly like a very old style toilet filler: platsic ball on a rod that is bent to turn water on/off, but in reality if always ALMOST off, but does not shut off totally, just hisses and dribbles water...

Can you manually force the upgrade or do you have to wait for an invite?

On our new pool build I keep on getting notifications from the house water leak detector that there is a slow leak we checked all over and found no leaks Then I heard the autofill for the pool making a Ouse as if it was about to shut off but was filling just a tiny bit. I pushed down the ball...

I just plastered our new 18'x38' pool 2 1/2 weeks ago. Last week there was a powerful windstorm here in Palm Desert area., so of course it was on the night after the poolam was there, and not due back for 3 days. The pool was full of leaves from the older mature trees (Eucalypus and Ficus) in...

Before our build, I purchased 8 Jandy Watercolors LED lights, since my supplier had told me that delivery times were crazy (3 years ago). We are now completing the pool, and set up the Intellicenter lighting, and I was aware that it might be troublesome, but now as much as installer tried, he...

My pool is now completed, except for the pebbletec, which the pool builder is anxious to finish (to receive final payment) We have been held up by City regs, asking to finish all new items in home prior, but those have been completed. My question is this: Since this is a desert property (palm...

I am ready to put the the finish on our pool, and just was told that Pebbletec just came out with a new Quartz finish. Is anyone familiar with this new product or have just put it in? Wondering if this will work out better than Pebblefina

Before I put in the pool coping, I am trying to decide what to do with the skimmer lids? 1. Can use a “Hide” lid, which is s/s pan that accepts the same material as the coping (porcelain) to make a seamless cover. Pros: looks very nice and can be almost invisible. Cons: the lid will be heavy to...

Does anyone have any recent experience with remote water chemistry monitoring? Something like the Sutro but that is more accurate. I would like to monitor water chemistry on a vacation home pool, to both check up on pool guy and any unforeseen events. In a very hot environment the chemistry can...

I have had my pool construction stop at the plumbing stage waiting for inspection for 3 weeks. Everytime I visit job site start wondering if one skimmer is enough? Pool is 18x38, and I have asked several people and it’s a 50/50 split between those that say one is fine or those that say 2. the...

If you do, can you please tell me what color you chose, and how you like it? My PB and local Applicator does not have ANYTHING to show me, and they don't even install BREEZE, since they tell me it takes a crew of 3 , 1 1/2-2 days to polish the finish Thanks

Does anyone have any experience with either of these two finishes? trying to decide between these two smooth finishes and just regular white plaster

i Would like to remotely check on the status of the pool, so most of the equipment will be tied to the internet. I thought it may be advantageous to remotely check chem levels, with something like a Sutro. Is it worth it
