The Compool (CP3800) automation for my pool spa combo is getting wonky and I'm wondering if there is a quick fix or is it more economical to just replace.
The issue is that I can't trust the compool to run the schedule so I am stuck leaving the system in service mode (operated only at the poolside panel and not the wired remote). When I let the programmed schedule run, it will inevitably go haywire. Several times I have woken up in the morning to find the pool is in some crazy configuration and the wired remote control panel in my kitchen displays some funky message. I can't trust it because it has the potential to run the pump while dry.
My question is this... should I attempt to repair the current system (what should I investigate first?) or should I go ahead and replace. If I should replace, is the "Compool Upgrade to EasyTouch" kit a good choice and can someone with reasonable DIY skills do that upgrade?
