Thank you for the response. Nothing in those threads provided an actual name of an installer and your reply may discourage others who think I’ve actually received closure. If anyone could reply or private message me, it would be greatly appreciated to understand any Florida installers, even if...

Hi All, Does anyone know a hotspot AC installer they can recommend anywhere in the state of Florida? Hoping to have someone that has installed more than one before. Thanks!!

It’s hard to believe I’ll be the first person to ask or that Pentair is not aware, but it’s reasonable to ask and try. I’ll report back if I hear anything.

Pentair please update your ScreenLogic connect app, needed to connect to your Easytouch load center to control your pool equipment. It has not been updated in 3 years. It would be great to have Alexa and Siri capability. However the one thing that must be fixed is a connectivity status...

Thank you all for the replies. I don’t believe that’s what they did. Let me see if anyone has a photo before the concrete was done.

Thanks for the quick reply! This is a PB, but has not been helpful with questions on this… I don’t have a final photo… I have a few just prior and a drawing of how I think it was plumbed.

Hi All, Could use some advice on our new pool construction. We have 3 "Spa" returns on a 2" pipe with its own valve plumbed all the way back to the pump for our bench seats. It also has a 2" air pipe plumbed all the way back to the pool equipment. Air and water pipes both about 80' from the...

Thank you both! I’ll insist on the valves. l’m going to buy some extras too. My pipes look bigger than most (3” vs 1” wide). Any suggestions on ones that may be better made?

PB says while I do have a high water line (bottom 2 feet will always have water), hydrostatic valve not needed and pool water will hold it down. He has concerns valve springs will rust out quickly and cause more trouble than help. Also, he says because I have drainage (culvert that flows to...

Thank you!

Adding a Hydrostatic relief valve to the bottom of the pool.

Thank you! Would adding a valve anyway be ill advised?

Hello community! Well point with sump pump vs Hydrostatic valve vs hydrostatic cap question/advice. I'm having a pool installed in southwest Florida. The PB put gravel underneath the entire bottom of the pool shell, put a 2" well point tube at the deep end that ran until the Gunite was shot...

@MyAZPool, @tagyoureit, @rstrouse, @cmc0619, @Katodude thank you so much for this great resource!! My pool build is in progress and a few months before my equipment pad is deployed. I've been purchasing everything needed to implement the Pentair IntelliCenter Pool Control Dashboard. To try...

Thank you!

@MyAZPool I’m replicating your bypass down to the tee (pun intended). Your photo above has my curiosity in the bottom right hand corner what are those devices with the red, blue, and yellow rewind symbols? My pool build is in progress sorry if it’s a basic question.

Thank you so much @caroexx @cmc0619 !! A lot to think about. Perhaps I’ll let my contractor put in the pentair load center and then do option 3. Sorry if I didn’t follow proper forum etiquette with not starting a new thread. Merry Christmas!

@caroexx @cmc0619 I'm actively buying and mirroring your configuration closely. It seems the GFI breakers being used here are available at a max of 40A. The heat pump I'm considering requires a 50 amp breaker (Pentair UltraTemp 140 H/C) thoughts on a GFI breaker that fits this modular design...

Thanks for confirming! My pool build just stared and is set to complete in February. I’m slated to have a Pentair box, but trying to build my own and save a few $$$ with more flexibly.

Love your setup! I’m getting ready to do my own and hoping you can answer a few questions to help. You mention having a similar setup to @cmc0619 , but I don’t see any relays to turn on and off your pump, chlorinator or lights. Are you accomplishing this some other way? Are you using the...

Thank you. It looks like it’s 10’ and this is it here: Searchable platform for building codes 4203.6 Overhead Conductor Clearances Except where installed with the clearances specified in Table E4203.6, the following parts of pools and outdoor spas and hot tubs shall not be placed under...

Hi All, Does anyone know the code for Fort Myers Florida and the distance from the overhead high power utility power lines and the pool? I’ve received several pool quotes and some have a said 6’ and others said 10‘. The power lines are at least 25’ high, which I’m sure is fine. My question is...

Understood, I think this is that thread. Totally agreed the FHP is the complete package option. I just was not sure if FHP vs Doucette was similar to brand name automation for $$$$ vs DIY raspberry pi automation for $. I’m a DIY kind of guy and the titanium heat exchanger seems to be the most...
