I have the same issue. I've kicked the can on fixing it but this is another person with a similar issue. Spa Spillway leaking? Need a sealant?

I suspect the masons used "normal grout" and not pool grout. It's the same grout they used for the rest of the stonework around the pool. It looks nice but erodes away. Water then followed the paths of least resistance with some coming down the spa wall toward the pool and some flowing around...

Never heard back on this so not sure if @gocubs418's fix worked or not. Yes, I know this is old, but so is the leak. Mine is almost identical. Water is seeping out under/around the stone spillway. After the spillway turns off, water will drip slowly from the seam between the two large flat...

@Jimrahbe and @bedelliott Y'all were both kind enough to reply back to help with my issue I reported. Here's a recap and update. Freeze protection: As I understand it (and have observed) my Pentair controller turns on freeze protection mode when the air temp gets to 35 degrees and it runs...

@jwalkermed Howdy from Boerne! I also have a spa that's leaking, somewhat. Who was your builder?

Pump shut off: I don't know. I'd say "no," but I'm not out there watching it. But I get where you're headed there. So in theory, the spa mode kicks in, maybe there's some air in the drain line then the valves open to drain the spa, the pump cavitates and then the spa drains into the pool...

Having just said all that, I went back out and the spa was running and had dropped a foot. I've now set it all to manual valves, with 20% draining from the spa and 25% filling it, so there's constant flow on both the pool and spa side.

Howdy, y'all! Oh how I do not miss Minot ND, yet somehow it feels a little like it in South Texas today... if only for a few hours. It is 21 degrees this morning. I need your help to solve a freeze protection mystery. This has happened at least 4 times now. Freeze protection kicks on and...

I went to service mode, but couldn't get the pump to start back up. The freeze protection may be overriding that. So I went back to auto mode. Then I switched the fill side to 50/50 spa and pool, and the suction side to 25% spa, 75% pool, so there's a small cascade coming from the overflow...

Thanks, y'all. I had to leave but came back home and the spillway was on, then it turned off so everything is functioning. Maybe my EasyTouch just needed the morning coffee. @mknauss thanks for the signature reminder. I was waiting on our PB to swap us over to ScreenLogic, but it's obvious...

I was gently awakened this morning by my wife telling me the spa (connected to pool) was running, but the water was below the jet line. Like much of the USA right now, it's in freeze mode. I grabbed the remote and changed it to pool with spillway mode to refill the spa. Once it was filled, I...

Rate here would depend on if you're inside/outside city limits. Numbers below are for single-family homes. Since it's based on total water used and the rate increases as you use more, your baseline usage would influence the cost. Since we filled the pool in the same month as laying new sod...

Can't speak to the SWG part, but we got color added to our concrete. They gave us a chart that showed the colors we could pick from. Only advice I would give on coloring is to know that (at least in our case) the chart color was the color it would be IF it were sealed. Since we were just...

My 5 PM test worked... the valve switched to spa, the pump started and water is spilling over. Initially, I thought "Spillway" would run the valves and the pump, and it kind of does, but I had to go into the pump settings and create a new pump speed, named Spillway. --------------- I'm...

My pump was programmed with speeds for Pool and Spa mode. I created a speed for Spillway. I'll find out at 5 PM (next scheduled time) if that worked, or if someone replies sooner and tells me a different way.

Please help me schedule my Easytouch 8 with Pentair variable speed pump and spa spillway. I want to run the pump every few hours for an hour at a time, rather than continually for a block of time. For example, 1 AM, 5 AM, 9 AM, 1 PM, 5 PM, 9 PM. I know how to do that. Then I will add the...
