I have a head scratcher here. My pool was completed in May with all new Pentair pool equipment. I have an Intermatic T101R timer that has worked flawlessly until just a few weeks ago. Shortly after the timer starts the breaker is flipped. I thought my pump may be the issue but I have a separate freeze protection unit Intermatic PF1102 and when temperature triggers the pump to start it never flips my breaker. And lately the pump has needed to run all night. As a side note, we have a combined pool and spa and the breaker issues didn’t start until the pool was closed with only the spa left open. So I’m guessing I have a bad timer. Any ideas?
