@Jimrahbe I saw your comment on a thread about Intelliflo "I have three 3 HP IntelliFlo pumps and they have been running 24/7, mostly at 1200 RPM. One is over 10 years old, one over 8 years old, one right at 7 years old. They are all powered by Pentair GFCI breakers and they have never, not...

A question for those EasyTouch programming gurus out there: I have an EasyTouch 8, driving an Intelliflo VS for pool and spa, an Intelliflo VS for the spa jets, and a single speed Superflo for the infloor cleaner. Freeze mode is enabled for all three circuits, and works swimmingly, so to...

So it’s going to be a chilly night tonight (low 30’s F which is cold here in the desert southwest) and I have this great idea to heat up the hot tub, turn off the lights, and watch the Geminids meteor shower from the cozy warmth of the hot tub. But its likely that the EasyTouch’s freeze mode...

This morning, under a clear blue sky and dead calm winds, I saw the shadows of many ring-shaped ripples on the floor of the pool. They looked much like those ripples formed by rain drops, however there was not a cloud in the sky. I also looked for bubbles coming from the returns, which sometimes...

I've been following a very interesting thread on Intellicenter Programming and have a quite similar question, but specific to Easy Touch: My pool is set up such that intake is taken from the pool only, and returns to both the pool and the spa, thus creating a spillover from spa to pool, which...

Which brings up another question… for those of us in temperate climes, like southern Utah (think Las Vegas climate) we won’t close and winterize the pool, just watch for freezing overnight temperatures, and make sure freeze protection protocols are working. In fact we will frequently heat and...

The other day, our neighbors invited us to experience their beautiful new salt water pool. By request of the PB, they are using a professional outfit to maintain the pool for the first year. I understand that the salinity of a salt water pool is a fraction of that of ocean water, in fact it is...

Well technically, not building yet, that will commence in the fall, but at least we've signed a contract. We are in the St George, UT area. Climate is similar to Las Vegas - hot summers, mild winters, year-round outdoor recreation opportunities. We have a 1.7 acre lot in the desert near St...

Hi all, We're in planning stages of putting in an in-ground pool. Our property is 1.75 acres, on a septic system. I understand that periodically ( maybe every several years) a pool may need to be drained for maintenance or other purposes. Although we have a relatively large parcel, the HOA...

Hello all, I just joined a few days ago, and find in this forum a wealth of information and expertise! My wife and I are just starting on the pool construction journey; our first steps are learning as much as we can, trying to define what we want, and doing some sketches. We have a 1.7 acre...
