Lost communication only on first scheduled speed

65,

As Marty points out, the idea that you have to "turnover" your pool water x times a day is not really true. Chemicals keep your pool sanitized and clear, not the number gallons that you push through the filter.. The filter is just there to capture the stuff that falls into your pool, not to prevent algae.

I never recommend running GPM unless specifically needed for some special requirement. You really want the flow to decrease if something is wrong, so that you know it and can take care of the problem.. GPM can hide problems, if the pool owner is not alert.

Thanks,

Jim R.

Thanks again for all the info, here is what I changed to, let’s hope it works tomorrow,

Pool 5:00am to 10:00pm
Cleaner 5:10am to 8:00am
High speed 8:10am to 11:00am

pool 1200RPM
Cleaner 2600RPM
High Speed 2200 RPM

Looks good on the schedule. As we said above, you can most likely dramatically reduce your overall pump time if you like.

I suggest you read ABCs of Pool Water Chemistry and How to Chlorinate Your Pool - Trouble Free Pool

Take care.
