Howdy! In ground pool with attached spa, at least ten years old, installed by previous homeowners... The attached spa was dropping to the level of the pool water every time the pump shut off and I was "intermittently" losing water from the pool when the pump was running. I looked at the check...

I upgraded to an EasyTouch circuit board from a Comp pool board last week, ran fine for a few days, everything worked no problem, pump, cleaner, heater. HAPPY DAYS! Then I encountered a "surging" problem and the pump wouldn't filter. I spoke with Pentair support (after two full days of trial and...

I upgraded to a new Pentair Easy Touch board on Saturday, pretty straight forward, copied the connections from my old 3800 and the pump and heater worked first time and ran without issue for several hours on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I don't have the control panel set up in the house yet so...

I have a 2hp Centurion pump on approx 30,000 gallon in ground pool. Over the weekend some toys got in to the skimmer inlet and dislodged the basket, and I am assuming the leaves and other debris has caused a lack of water to the pump while it was running. So now the pump humms and resets...

Howdy! Trying to heat the spa for the first time this year, and the heater will not start. I have a Pentair MiniMax and it doesn't (or didn't) get much use as I am in sunny Texas. The power light is illuminated, but none of the other lights are coming on (thermostat, heat, etc) when I use the...

Howdy! I've been working on this problem for a while and can't figure it out. I have a compool controlled Jandy valve actuator which rotates to allow water to return to the pool or the spa. When I am running pool only, there are no issues, good flow, good pressure, and nothing goes to the...

Howdy! I just got my TF test kit this week and have performed my first test today. I didn't realize my chlorine tower was empty, and I don't know what effect that will have on my results. My first set of results are as follows Total Alkalinity - 180 Ph is approx 7.8 Ca hardness is 800...

When my spa cycle comes on, the compool runs it for about an hour, the spa drains completely and starts sucking air, as there is a very low flow of water coming in to the spa. For this cycle the valves are set to drain from spa and return to spa. Does this mean I have a blockage on the spa...

Howdy! I just opened up my DE filter to hose it off as I have been getting a lot of sediment settling on the pool for the last month. I tried to backwash the DE over the weekend and I think I added too much DE, I put in 100% instead of the 80% before researching on this forum properly. The...

Howdy! I recently bought a house with a pool and overflow spa, and have decided to maintain it myself. I had a few issues with the Solaris pool cleaner, and as a newbie I tried a bit of trial and error but didn't note all the initial settings of the compool valve actuators. I have two...
