Whoever tests this out, let me know how it works. Haha

Mine runs over constantly. I don't think it affects ph/aeration much, which I think is most peoples concern.

Yes. I would guess that the main power line comes up from the ground into that box, then to the timer and light. I would bet there's a breaker inside that box.

The breaker for my pool is in the same box as the rest of the house.

I try to read or skim every post on TFP via the unread posts option. It takes a lot of work to keep up with. I was just curious of the average number of posts per day or month or whatever. Does the forum admin/mods have any stats on this? Thanks, Billy

Richard, Unless I'm missing something, did you post the wrong link?

I run normal filtration/swg at about 1100 RPMs. Would be fine lower, but that's what keeps the heater from low flow error. I ramp it up to 3000 to run the cleaner.

Tftestkits.net I believe it's made by Taylor.

Welcome. Start with pool school and ordering a good test kit.

I had to make sure I got all the sealant out from around the wire exiting the niche. There was lot that was holding it in place.

The last set I ordered before upgrading the whole filter, I ordered from http://www.poolfiltercartridges.biz (filters4less on amazon). I'm guessing they were generic, but they seemed to work fine.

I have the easy touch as well. Love it. I went with the ScreenLogic over the Autelis after a lot of research, but can't remember the deciding factors. I don't see how you could be disappointed in either setup. When I upgraded my equipment, Pentair had a deal for extended warranties for...

When I found this site, I immediately went and bought bleach, baking soda, and borax. I'm fairly certain I never used the baking soda or borax. I think that's the point jblizzle was making. I've found that bleach and muriatic acid are really the only items I need to keep on hand. Since the...

The last house I rented, the owner had a pool service that I was responsible for paying. After the first time they came out and I saw what little he did, I said no way I'm paying for that. That's when I joined TFP and fired the pool company!!!

I think Pentair sent me a check valve to install on the IntelliPh that's supposed to help. Also, it should be fairly easy to extend the tubing so that the connections aren't inside the housing. I'm just not there enough to deal with it. Pentair's support has been great though.

On my iOS, green button is on, grey is off. I can turn either off or on. I can also use the features page to turn on things such as high speed or waterfall without being in pool or spa mode. My understanding is that pool mode enables the programmed timing and SWG. If I turn in high speed...

I like 83 as well.

Too much suction can cause issues as well.

Our navigator would have spells where it didn't seem to work and just sit there. I have a VS pump and was running it at about 3000 RPMs. We bit the bullet and bought a new one. Tested the suction with the clear tester that came with it, and it wasn't close to the minimum needed. I ramped the...

My IntelliPh is nice to have once dialed in. The biggest/only real issue is the rollers in the peristalsis pump are a cheap plastic. The MA eats them up. They barely last a season without needing to be replaced (about $50).

67 this morning in North Las Vegas.

Did you use the clear pressure tester that came with the cleaner? You may not being getting enough suction. This could be caused by having the floor drains open too much. My main drains stay set, but my in wall suction shares the line with the skimmer. I had to divert a bit more suction to...

I run my cleaner every evening for about 2 hours, so it stays in the pool.

Correct. I don't have the Autelis system because they are in the process of updating/reengineering the outdoor wireless panel. So, I went with the ScreenLogic. The EasyTouch wireless controller now just sits on the bakers rack. Since I got the ScreenLogic after the install, I programmed...

My understanding is that the EasyTouch is different from the IntelliTouch in that you can actually control it from the load center without service. There is no need for additional controllers. I had the EasyTouch wireless controller installed but have recently upgraded to the ScreenLogic...

Using the EasyTouch, you can set a different circuit and activate it when not in pool mode. This will run the pump but not the SCG.

Re: Could this be right or did I do it wrong? My cartridge filter reads 0 on low as well, but 18-20 on high. My installer told me to look at it in terms of efficiency, not pressure.

I went ahead and picked up both pentair parts tonight. Done deal now. Thanks for the replies.

My main concern is that Autelis seems to be lost at the moment. Their reply seems as though they're not sure which direction they're going. Will there be support for their product in the future?

I did the same thing at night with mine just playing around. It is really cool. The 4S (and possibly others) will do it as well with the iOS 6 upgrade.
