I understand that this thread has been quiet for a while, but I wanted to close the loop with what I have done. I tried the e-Tape but found trying to put the whole package together was a stretch for me... I found a place in Canada that sells a wireless or wired water level sensor that uses...

I think it is working... but don't want to jinx it! I ended up with a new circuit board and the problems have gone away... When nothing else makes sense I guess you have to look at the thing that is supposed to be smart... Many thanks @ajw22 for your time and comments - without you and this...

But in these broken supply chains not quite as fast! I actually have a few, but my son was working on a project... and took all of them. Some days...

In this new era, it was easier to get a new thermister than a resistor - no more Radio Shacks on the corners. I got a "generic" and put it in - first time it heated up accurately and didn't stumble on the 97 degree barrier. I know that this isn't a permanent solution but I am going to give it...

It is the heater that is off... I used a laser thermometer and a "cooking" one to verify. I set it to 104 to get it past the 98 sticking point. I bought Pentair - through an on-line pool equipment dealer, so it probably is. The other things that I replaced were also Pentair but through a...

Exhaust stack flue temp got to 326 before shutting off. The temp on the heater panel was 4 degrees higher (at 104 the spa was 100).

I did not put that comment in... apologies. I tested the exhaust temp (using the 10 sec "ON" button) earlier in the week and it was at about 280 - 300. On getting your response (thanks again!) I ran the heater and the water temp went to 102 without coaxing... and the heater exhaust was at 200...

Update... unfortunately. The new thermistor apparently wasn't the problem - or the full problem - as I once again have a discrepancy between the reported temp on the heater and the AquaLink. @ajw22 mentioned next the thermal regulator. Being the weekend and no local pool supply houses having...

@ajw22 - You were right - thermistor was the problem. Replaced old and the heater worked! Interestingly, the old thermistor had been replaced (5+ years ago) and visually was in good shape. Learned my lesson (again) - don't rely on how old something is or how it looks!:rolleyes: Thanks again! -J

I am at a loss... I am fairly handy but pool equipment is certainly not a strength. My pool repair company is not responding and I use the spa daily - so I am trying to get the heater to run in their absence. Parts may be an adventure this close to year-end but I have to get thru the first...

Oh my!!! This is going to be interesting! If I can get it to work it will be fun... otherwise, to quote the great philosopher, "Here's another nice mess you've gotten me into!" - Oliver Hardy of Laurel and Hardy. I read the Hackster post that was part of @jonpcar 's response to My New...

I invited him to the conversation. I have searched IOT devices but not found anything after a quick dive... looks like it is time to go deeper.

JJ Tex - yes I tried putting an Arlo out there, but when well watched the pool does not mis-behave. It gains my trust and I slack off my supervision and it turns and bites me. It is a very vindictive pool! When I bought the house the pool had been neglected by absentee snowbirds - no...

I got to believe that this is possible, but figuring out the best path is becoming a head scratcher. My pool has a negative edge with a seven-foot drop. The pool has a fill valve at the bottom of the trough with the simple float to turn the water on/off. When the float valve broke water went...

Glad the info helped... my iAqualink connection has been pretty consistent since September - minor "Offline" issues but nothing severe enough to plow more time into the connection - too many other things demanding attention!

Learned a lot - probably more than I thought possible - from this site. Up until now have been reading and listening to others - nothing to contribute. I read a number of posts about problems connecting the eero mesh router because I had been having intermittent connection problems. Before...
