    Asurion warranty with Betta SE skimmer

    Glad you mention the warranty for something purchased on Amazon. I had emailed Betta to see if we could purchase their warranty on an Amazon purchase and they never did reply.

    New Pentair app - now heater throwing error code

    thanks for confirming. Propane tank is near 80% and that's about what I would expect as we just had it filled end of last year and have only used the hottub a handful of times. I'll make a call to the repair guy. This thing was probably on its last legs anyway.

    New Pentair app - now heater throwing error code

    I don't think these two things are related, but I wanted to ask before calling the heater repair guy. We have an Intellicenter setup and the other day, I was prompted to download the new Pentair Home app. We have an older Hayward propane heater in this system for the spa. Everything worked...

    Asurion warranty with Betta SE skimmer

    thanks for the thoughts. Yeah, I want to say I remember being prompted for an add-on warranty at Amazon beforebut I really never paid attention until I went specifically looking for it today and couldn't find it anywhere. I may just buy the warranty thru the manufactrer direct, assuming they...

    Asurion warranty with Betta SE skimmer

    Reading here that people are happy with the Asurion warranty on their Betta Se purchased from Amazon. Are you purchasing this warranty from Amazon or directly from Asurion? I don't seem to find any mention of this on the Betta SE page? I was first considering buying the "used" Betta SE which...

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    thanks for everyone's continued help. I drained the spa today. Took the water down below the first set of returns and the water was still flowing at my cut so I emptied all of the spa water into the pool, below the returns at your feet, and the water appeared to have stopped flowing at my...

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    Looking a little closer at the pipe above ground, there's a pretty bit cut in the top, almost like someone started to cut off the cap and then stopped. 1. when I go to cap this connection, is it ok to do it underground? Or so I need to have a section above the water line? 2. Is this cut...

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    that would be great if I can just take water out of the spa. that's much less to deal with than taking it out of the pool. I guess I'm going to try that. thanks

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    inside coupling looks like it might work. Any chance this might hold with just friction? As I assume there's no way glue is going to hold with 2" of water rushing out. thankfully the tape seems to be holding for now. I'm still a little confused what this pipe is for. Now that we know its...

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    hey guys, in a bit if a bind here. I went today to cut off the pipe above ground and was going to cap it off underground. I did drill a small pin hole at the top to make sure this wasn't under pressure. Then I went to cut below ground level and water started coming out. I only got a few...

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    ah, I see. Yeah, this pipe appears to go straight towards the spa. guessing no problems to cut off and cap this near the pool deck so its not above around. Assuming that's what this really is, of course.

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    We do have a blower for the spa over by the pool equipment. Would knowing that help to make sense of this one?

    Any idea what this random capped 2" PVC pipe might be for?

    We had some bushes pulled up today that had died after being underwater during the last tropical storm. There seems to be a 2" capped pipe (far right side of this photo) that goes towards the pool/spa. This is really no where near our pool equipment. Not sure if its pool related or not but...

    Thanks for all of this. I am back on 1.064 and will contact the company assigned to the fix and explain what I know.

    updated Intellicenter firmware, now Intelliflow pump won't communicate

    Is there any downside to doing this? Hopefully the pump menu is pretty self explanatory. I have never been in there.

    updated Intellicenter firmware, now Intelliflow pump won't communicate

    Thank you guys. I didnt get a chance to update here last night, but I did turn on the system for a couple hours and it appeared to behave normally. This wasn't totally unexpected as the past couple of days it seems to start out fine but then goes crazy later. I assume fw rollback is the same...

    updated Intellicenter firmware, now Intelliflow pump won't communicate

    Hi all, back again. We talked a few weeks ago and I updated my Intellicenter FW to 2.017 and all was pretty good, except I was getting a nagging alert that the Intelliflow 3.03/3.04 was out of date. I just hit "dismiss but show again" and everything seemed to be fine for a week or two. Then...

    Intellicenter - spa mode has come on overnight, anyway to prevent this?

    Do you mind explaining this setup? I would like to implement at least another item here so I can bump up the pump rpm for part of the day So are Skim Med and Skim High separate circuits? Where you can control the pump rpm independently? Does your "pool" circuit run 24 hours a day and then...

    Intellicenter - spa mode has come on overnight, anyway to prevent this?

    Perfect yes timer on the spa was 12 hours. Thx. I see your lights are also set up as a feature. Do your lights also show up in the Light section? Mine do not and I was under the impression this was incorrect. I asked before as I was having trouble getting he color to stick after turning them...

    Intellicenter - spa mode has come on overnight, anyway to prevent this?

    1. I am on 2.006 and it says that's the latest. I will have to look about how to download outside of the panel. 2. Egg timer sounds good. I didn't k own that was an option but yeah I think 2 hours is a good medium

    Intellicenter - spa mode has come on overnight, anyway to prevent this?

    Yeah, super simple here. The pool mode does return to the spa which overflows to the pool. Spa mode we trigger manually. Seeing your different skim levels, I would like to set something up like that. I have the pump run all day at 1600rpm but do want some more surface agitation and better...

    Hi all, 3 times now over the past month I have woken up to see the hot tub and heater running. one time I had used the spa the night before but it was 99% shut off as I grilled dinner later that night and would have noticed the spa on. The 2nd time teenage son use the spa the evening prior...

    how does SLAM work on yellow/mustard algae if its chlorine resistent?

    most everything I read says that yellow algae is chlorine resistant. If this is really the case, how does SLAM work (which is the recommended treatment here) without any additional algicides?

    Pentair Intellivalve blinking and won't move

    I see what you mean about the 4 long screws that have to go thru the Intellivalve and into the diverter valve vs the shorter ones that just screw on the top to the diverter. And yes, now that you mention it, we do have another valve handle to use and the handle comes off in like 5 sec with a...
