When powering on the handheld remote, you hold the Menu/Power On button to activate the remote. The screen lites up and connects, but only stays on as long as you hold the button down. Is there anyone who has experienced this issue with the remote?

After a full week of downtime, PB & Pentair replaced my 4X160 with a new VS-3050. They installed it and left. They never checked to see if worked with the Easy Touch except that the Easy Touch turned the pump on and off. Now there is no control of the RPM. It appears to be about 1000 rpm off...

Now literally dead in the water. Pump died today. Not the Easy Touch. Called PB and Pentair with NO response/action. Currently adding chlorine and brushing to keep the water moving. Very disappointed in PB and Pentair for lack of response. Removed the 4X160 from the Easy Touch, no LED's...

This has happened now three times after a heavy rain storm. The pool will be running fine through the rain storm and when the pump is turned off by the Easy Touch schedule, the next scheduled ON time the Intelliflow will not start. All LED's on the pump are on indicating it should be working...

I use the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. You may have some in the house already. If you don't they are available at any Target, Walmart, etc in the cleaning supplies section. Brings the steps right back to white with very little elbow grease and the Magic Eraser don't appear to mess with your pool...

If you want to remove the water easily, just unhook a small section of the liner where the pocket of water is. Using your vacuum hose and pump, set your filter to waste and put your vacuum hose down behind the liner as far as it will go into the pocket of water. Turn on the pump and with the...

No, it is natural gas. It seems to be related to the metal exhaust vent on the side of the unit. It doesn't whistle on startup, but as the the unit heats up it seems to start and continue through the heating process.

My Pentair heater appears to be heatiing as it always has, but it has just started making a high pitched noise while heating. The noise appears to be coming from the heaters chimmney. Any thoughts/suggestions?

Since you have a vinyl liner my recommendation would be to lift a section of the liner out of it's track right where you have the water behind the liner. Place your hose behind the liner and either use a sump pump or use your vac hose and run your pool pump with the multi-port to waste. Once...

I just have one pool light and one spa light. It is under the diving board. I am not disappointed in the amount of light it cast throughout the pool. As for wishing I had an additional light, I haven't even given it a thought. If you are like me, you will be using on one of the seven color...

I would skip the Halogen and move to LED. I use the Pentair Intellibrite lights and have been very pleased with them. IntelliBrite LED pool lights need only 37 watts to create the same light output as traditional incandescent and halogen pool lights do at 200 watts—more than 87% less...

While I can't offer any comparison for brightness. I am very happy with my Intellibrite LED light. I have had mine for two years, have it on every night for 3 hours 365 days a year, love the "light show" color changes and the different "shows" that it offers. I intial cost is high, but pay...

No problems here! Love my Easy Touch! Mine has never lost a connection. The only thing I have thought was odd, is that it will go through batteries fast. Typically I seem to need to change the batteries twice during the season, using alkaline batteries.

Yes, the pump is programmable by itself, but the controllers purpose is to create an automated environment, scheduling, and operating your filtration, heating, pool and landscape lighting, sanitizing, waterfalls and fountains…all for convenience so you won't have to worry about them or...

There are really two main controllers for easy automation the IntelliTouch & the Easy Touch. Both do basically the same and offer the same pool & spa remote control features. The IntelliTouch is needed if you are planning on the Intelliflo VF pump as it requires the IntelliTouch only. The...

I have two Intellebrites. One in the spa and one in my 40ft pool. I am extremely happy with my purchase. My favorite thing about these lights were the "shows" that it can perform. Love the constant change and the ability to change the mood with the flip of a switch. If you are look for...

Detailed view of Pool/Spa Return plumbing To answer your question, when on normal, 100% of the return is to the pool. I have no check valve on the system, so the issue has been since Day 1 which is just been only since this past July. It didn't manifest itself until the cooler weather here in...

The spa looses water ONLY during the frequent valve change (every 15 min) during the switch from pool to spa. I think I know where you are going on the problem, but I don't think there are no check valves on my system. In ground spa is only elevated about 12" above decking to create...

IG Vinyl Pool/Spa with Pentair EasyTouch 8 Control System w/ IntelliFlow 160 pump. My question is on the cold evenings my freeze protection works perfectly at 35 degrees. During freezes, it switches between the pool and the spa every 15 minutes. What my concern is, the SPA seems to drain it's...
