Was out to the pool this afternoon and noticed that the water level was higher than it should by at least an inch, opened up the deck cover for the autofill and heard a hiss...noticed a tiny stream of water going out of it...so culprit found, but I'm confused since the autofill is supposed to be controlled by a valve/timer and the timer is indeed showing off (It's only supposed to run from 5:45am-7am).
Trying to decide how I want to handle it....there should be something to shutoff water temporarily to the pipe connecting to the water fill but I'm not sure which one, the pool builder put in some additional sprinklers and rerouted backyard irrigation when the autofill was put in....we also have a faucet by the pool equipment. I can probably find something to turn off the water, but I'm worried it will be hitting everything in stead of just the autofill.
Quite frustrated because I put the timer in just to prevent this kind of thing from happening in the first place...
