Hi there,
I have the following setup today (I am in Canada) and would like some advice on proper wiring of my new setup
Current setup:
20 AMP 240 Volt breaker - one line to pool pad
- intermatic timer with fireman switch hookup
- Raypak digital heater hooked into timer as L2
- old single speed pump wired into timer as L1
- emergency shut off switch that overrides timer
New Setup:
-intelliflo pump to replace old pump
- Intellichlor chlorinator
My challenge is that i'm reading that I should not keep the pump timer and should feed the Intelliflo directly. Is this true?
To keep this simple, I was thinking of keeping the timer and removing the pins (so it never shuts off). That way I wouldn't have to rewire the heater which looked a bit complex. I was also thinking of wiring the Chlorinator to the L2 terminal to share the L2 with the Raypak. My emergency shut off could then shut everything off.
OR, should I pull a new wire for the pump and leave the timer to control the heater and chlorinator?
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated (would like to ensure I comply with Canadian codes).
