4 years old. Shows 60% life used. Reading 9,900 PPM. (when it's really 3,000). I read the flow switch is where the salt reading comes from and I might be able to just replace that? Am I reading this correctly?

So today - my spa was 1/2 filled. Seems like when it kicked to the 30 min spa mode - the return stayed on pool.... The return is an intellivalve. I turned system power off - and on. Tried to turn on bubblers - intellivavle rotated to SPA return... Tried to turn on spillway - intellivavle...

Noticed my Polaris not cleaning the pool well. All wheels spin - but if I put ANY resistance on the front right brush - the wheels stop. If I do that on the left - they keep spinning - although click and don't like it. So obviously something is not right about it... Found a breakdown video...

I see their site is down - my app has not been able to connect since last Wednesday - I thought even if their system was down you could still locally login/control the system? I have to say - if I did this pool again today - I would not use Pentair....

So I guess I never had the 'alerts' turned to on in my intellicenter. I did that last week. Now every day when the system kicks on I get an email - below salt level (its not - I have 3,300). and Cold water shut off (the water is 84). I'm assuming this happens because the sale system is...

Hope a post like this is allowed - I ordered a wholesale Polaris Quattro and booster - but they were back ordered... So I ended up just buying them retail (and cancelling the wholesale order - or so I thought). So now I have a new Polaris Quattro floor cleaner and booster pump... If...

Running my filter at 2,000 rpms. The polaris is running right about 27-28 rpms - so the bottom of the 28-32 range. I do not have any restrictor plate (blue or red) currently installed - just free flow water through a 2" pipe There is a lot of water being expelled through the relief valve -...

New pool - was going off the spec chart for the plans that shows 54gpm at 1,500 RPM for the Pentair Intelliflow VS. Noticed my Jandy JXI heater says 'check flow' when I activate the bypass valve and send water through the heater. I have to increase the speed to about 2,000 rpm to get the...

Got my 400k Jandy heater hooked up today. Everything runs as expected minus one possible issue? I installed a 3 way valve - and an Intermatic actuator. On the Intellicenter it's Valve B and I used circuit "Heater" as the option. Everything works just fine - I turn on the Heat mode - the...

I am installing a propane JXI. I am trying to figure out how to wire the low voltage part to the Pentair Intellicenter. I am reading the Pentair manual about that - it says remove the heaters fireman jumper - which is that on the Jandy? I'd like to just run a 2 wire from the Jandy to the...

A picture of my current plumbing setup is below. For starters - this is a new pool and I WILL be adding a check valve in location #3 near the salt system when I turn the salt feature on. When the system is shut off - the intake valve position is 100% pool. The return valve position is 90%...

I am going to add a 400k btu propane heater. It's between the Raypak and a Jandy Jxi. I searched the forms and from what I can tell the Raypak is the preferred heater? I see the Jandy as a smaller footprint - but more parts to possibly break down the line? They're very close in price. If...

So my new pool build is almost complete (here is a pic of the spa just because). My equipment is roughly 50 feet from the spa - the plumbing for the air blower line is probably 70 feet. I bought a 2hp blower - my deck goes down this week - I'd rather NOT install a hartford loop if I don't...

I am going to start setting my equipment today. The 3" lines are drain/return for pool/spa. I was going to 3" 90 up (and reduce the pipe to 2" below the dirt) which is probably about 4 feet from the top of the pad. Figured this way all my pipes coming from the ground are 1.5" and 2" - gives...

I have searched and can't figure this one out... New pool build - I would like to have an autofill for the pool. From what I have found - I have a 1.5inch equalizer line from the pool that connects to the 'bucket' of the autofill? and then the bucket has the float and connection for the house...

Building a new pool (owner/builder). I did this today - friend said he thinks I'll need a normal junction box for inspection and this won't fly? I figured those normal junction boxes were for 110v - and not the low voltage lights.... Maybe I'm wrong. My idea was to leave a few extra feet of...

Building a new pool/spa. Going with Pentair products. I've been reading a lot about the easy touch and inteliitouch. I don't need a hardwired or wireless controller. I just want to control everything with the app so will get the Screenlogic 522104. Basic specs: - 3 pool lights - 1 spa...

First post... I installed a Hayward Salt System today. The intermatic pool timer was beat and part of it snapped while I was pulling the wires. It's a 220 volt. I have been thinking of getting a variable speed pump. My little 1hp for my 13,000 gallon pool has a hard time moving the vacuum...
