New pool owner here. I have a spa that spills over two sides into the pool. When I am running my pool pump the spillover flows over perfectly and looks great. When I run the spa pump unfortunately I don’t get any spillover, even when I enable the spillway feature. Am I doing something wrong or is it just not possible to have spillover when I have the spa pump running?
No spillover when spa pump running

That is normal, when you run the pool pump it sucks water from the pool and returns it to the spa causing the spillover. The spa pump sucks from the spa and returns to the spa keeping the water level the same

Depends how your equipment is setup.
What automation system do you have? Add it to your signature.
Post pictures of your equipment pad and valves so we see what you are working with.

K,
Tell us why you want the spillover to work when in the Spa mode???
The spillover shuts off on purpose..
Thanks,
