We have a 28,000g gunite IG pool with PCC2000 in floor system, a broken Jandy AquaPure SWG, currently running on 2 pumps. Originally both single speed running on a timer. A couple years ago I replaced the filter/heater pump with an Intellipro. Now we're looking to install a slide, and I'm considering replacing the floor pump (still an old single speed) with a VSF Intellipro, and setting it all up with Intellicenter. I have the following questions:
1) Since the Jandy salt cell needs to be replaced, does it make sense to switch to Pentair and Intellicenter now?
2) I'm thinking I would plumb the slide to the floor pump using a Jandy valve - good idea?
3) Since I need to run the pump at high flow for the floor system, I'm wondering if it would make sense to put the heater on this side instead of the filter side (which would then allow me to run the filter longer & slower for filtering and SWG). Would this cause a problem with the heater since it's unfiltered, or is the pump basket good enough?
4) if I try to run 2 Intellipro pumps from the Intellicenter, do I need the dual equipment personality card, or can I get away with the less expensive options? The only other thing I'd like to control is a basic pool light.
Anything else I'm missing?
Thanks!
