    Valve return for pool set to off. Okay to open to speed up heating?

    Just wanted to see if it's a quicker or more efficient process to get the pool heated from the pool returns instead having to heat it through the spa spillover. My spa is situated above the pool so I would imagine some additional heat is also lost through that process.

    Spa water level low, pool level rising when pump is running

    Do you know if this is an acceptable replacement? I have a Jandy check valve. https://a.co/d/0Pp76FM I went to my local pool store and they're quoting $60-99 for one replacement valve. I showed them this one and they warned me about the quality of these.

    Spa water level low, pool level rising when pump is running

    Gotcha. Any idea then what the issue could be? Should I just make sure my pool pump remains off while I hire a professional to figure this out?

    Yes it does normally flow over the pool. Any idea on how I can I figure out if my automated valves are set properly?

    Are these the same reagents?

    Awesome thank you so much for the info. Went to a local pool supply store and they basically mentioned the same thing but I just wanted some reassurance.
