    Intellicenter-controlled system: new pump, SWG, and autofill system needed. Recs?

    @ajw22 My pool technician just estimated me for the INTELLICHLOR / ICHLOR POWER CENTER. Is this different than the PC100 power center you'd recommended?

    Intellicenter-controlled system: new pump, SWG, and autofill system needed. Recs?

    @ajw22 can I ask why you recommended the pump with the touchscreen here? I have the intellicenter to control the pump. Are you just recommending this in case the intellicenter dies or fails someday, as a backup way to control the pump?

    Intellicenter-controlled system: new pump, SWG, and autofill system needed. Recs?

    @ajw22 You are a master. Thank you so much for your thorough help. I appreciate this so much! Based on your information above, I think I'd probably just end up replacing it with another Levolor. The part cost is so inexpensive, and I'm reasonably handy. I wonder if I might take on this project...

    Sure! I have circled the valve and the K110 unit in red here. In the second photo, you can see where the sensor sits in the overflow.

    Intellicenter-controlled system: new pump, SWG, and autofill system needed. Recs?

    Thank you for your post. I’m not sure how many gallons my pool has. I know it is a small-ish, 268 sq. ft. pool with a spa, and goes from 3’ depth to 5’ depth. Regarding your comment on the Levelor, did you mean you’d recommend replacing the broken one with another Levelor? The pool tech just...

    Brand new intellicenter upgrade - not scanning for WiFi.

    Thank you for your response. I understand the way that it’s presently functioning, and am happy that this works. I guess the question I’m asking is: Is there a WiFi radio built into the new Intellicenter systems? If so, is mine defective, given that it does not scan for any WiFi SSID’s?

    Brand new intellicenter upgrade - not scanning for WiFi.

    Hi everyone, My pool repair technician just installed a brand new intellicenter upgrade kit (model 522048) to replace my prior intellitouch (installed in 2016). The intellicenter upgrade kit was manufactured in 9/2024. It came with a wireless interface bundle, so the technician installed the...

    Intellitouch system, several repairs needed - Which equipment to install?

    @mknauss and @Jimrahbe thank you for your replies. I've decided to take your advice and upgrade to an Intellicenter. I'm going to go ahead and replace the globrites as well. Has Pentair improved the Globrite line's longevity at all in the past several years? It's going to cost about $800 per...
