My spa spillover (waterfall) is running constantly when my pool pump is on even during pool mode. Durning pool school, I asked the tech from the builder if that spillover had to run continuously and he said “pretty much”, but to control it, i would use the valve adjacent to the fountain valve. I have since learned that should not run constantly and would like to control it.
Show a picture when the valves are in SPA mode. There should be no spillover to the pool when in spa mode because suction is from the spa and the return to the spa only. There is nothing causing it to spillover to the pool. Unless your valves are not fully rotating.
The automated valve between the spa and fountain is programed to turn the Fountain (Deck Jets) on and off, so I have no automatic control of the spa spillover. I would like to control both the spa spillover and deckjets through automation.
there are 4 valve control sockets which are assigned in the icon for Assign JVAs on the second page of the System Setup. You have 3 valve actuators assigned. Can you show a screenshot of that screen?
So basically my pool is plumbed for overflow two different ways? I will switch the dip switch over tonight and see if it works. But thinking about it, I am going to have to adjust the actuator between Fountain and Spa aren’t I? Right now, deck jets are off, spa overflow is on. If I turn on the deck jets, they come on but spa overflow remains on. I don’t have a way to close off that secondary pipe to the spa.
I am not sure what you wanted or where the fountain is.
Your RETURN and SUCTION actuators are connected to the reversed sockets on the Aqualink board. Open up the top panel and swap them.
