I wanted to keep my pool at a decent temp throughout the summer so I set up a new schedule to include turning on the heater for a few hours at 85°. Issue is once the water reaches 85° it seams as though the heater keeps running through the firing sequence.
What I think is happening is the temp sensor reads the temp every 10-30 seconds which swings from 81° to 89°, according to what I see on my phone. It then tells the heater to fire because it is below 85°. Before the heater fully fires up the same sensor says it no longer needs to heat because the water is above 85°.
This cycle continues endlessly until I shut power off to the pump and heater. Once turned back on I can adjust the temp manually on the heater to either 75° to shut it off or 92° to keep it running and all is well. Manual and phone controls don't work when the heater is going though this cycle. The control panel reads r13 then 128 then 85° and then it powers off and the cycle restarts.
Is something going bad in my heater or easytouch controller? Or is there a better way to program my heater to keep my water temp where I want it?
