I have read threads here and plodded through the Pentair manual, all of which confuses me more. I won't be doing the install work myself, but trying to figure out who should.
We are remodeling the pool. Currently have Intelliflo VS and Polaris pumps controlled by Intermatic timers. No heater, spa, etc.
I bought an EasyTouch 4 with IC40 and 2 actuators. We will also control 120V pool light and landscape lights. The pool remodeler will program the ET4, but recommended an electrician to put up the control center and hook stuff in. He described the electrical as being simple (not my takeaway from reading threads here), but the electrician estimate is $700. My other option is to use the electrician we are using for landscape work, but he does not have experience with pool automation boxes. Is any electrician likely to quickly understand what needs to be done?
We have a sub-panel at the pad, but only black, red, white wires from the main panel. 40A 220V.
