    Detailed instructions on programming Suntouch/Intelliflo

    I was hoping to have someone walk me though in detail how to properly program my Suntouch with my Intelliflo VS (011018) My current set up on the Suntouch is just basic "solar auto" which opens the valve to the roof panels whenever there is heat available. My pump does not recognize this and...

    tips for using speedstir?

    Hello again! Second time using my new speedstir and I wonder who's got the best way to get the pill thing out of the tube without pouring it in my hand. Doing that ends up with me getting the testing chemicals all over my hand. Are the reagents harmful to brief skin contact?

    Advise on pump replacment.

    I currently have a 3/4 HP Whisperflo pump powering the sand filter and a 1HP booster pump powering my sweeper. Last year I had solar installed on my tri-level home and went against the installers recommendation on upgrading my pump to the same pump I have chance to buy now for more than half...

    Cheap but lisenced pump install.

    Hey there TFP. I had solar installed last year and denied the company's recommendation to upgrade my pool pump. They didn't quote me full price on the pump which was nice, (Pentair intelliflo 3hp VS #011018) but not the cheapest either ($1000.) One of the issues is that they want the same amount...
