Pentair EasyTouch - Water Feature issue

May 15, 2017

Surprise, AZ
Good morning,

I have a Pentair EasyTouch control system on the pool, no spa, but it has a water feature. I have it set to turn the pump and then the cleaner on during the morning hours. I noticed this morning that the water feature is running at the same time as the pool is on, whether it's running just the pump or also the cleaner. The water feature light is not on on the panel, nor is it showing up as on in my Screenlogic phone app, it's just running on it's own. There are two schedules showing, the pump and then the cleaner, no egg timer for the water feature either. It just seems to have a mind of it's own and is running while the pump/cleaner is running. Any ideas?

TIA,
Paula
 
Welcome to TFP.

Check the actuator that controls the valve of your water feature. It may have failed leaving it open.

Post pics of your equipment and valves.
 
Paula,

I agree with Allen.. Most likely, the water feature valve is stuck in the on position.

It could have just gotten out of sync... Move the little three position switch on the actuator and see what happens... The switch is set up as on - off - on.. Move it from one on to the other on and see if the valve moves.

If you don't know what is on or off with the valve, post a picture of the actuator and where it is now.

Thanks,

Jim R.
