So Im going to try to explain this as concise as possible, but on our new pool we have 3 valves on the return side of the water feature pump. I valve for the slide, 1 for the deck jets, and 1 for the sunshelf bubblers. All 3 valves are 2way valves (there are no return jets on this pump). Attached is a image from the intellicenter app showing the 3 features. When you turn on 1 of the features. The corresponding valve opens and the pump revs up to the rpm that I set for that valve (slide is 1250, deckjets 1500, bubblers 1600. If 2 features are turned on, both valves open and the pump goes to the higher speed. The problem is when all 3 features are turned on 1600rpm is not adequate so I have another feature circuit (water boost) to rev the pump to 2200. Everything works great, I'm just worried that if someone accidentally turns on only water boost, the pump will rev to 2200 but no valves would be open.
Is there a way to make the feature only able to be turned on if the other features are turned on first. Or do I need a relief valve plumbed after the pump. Or would the pump know that its revved up but doesn't have any GPM and shutdown before a pipe bursts? We have the intelliflo vsf pumps.
