Now that everything is up and running, I'd like to enquire those who run the Pentair system how they have their automation setup.
I am looking for what people (in the south, like TX/OK) are running for schedules. Right now I have the pool run for 3 hours, spa for an hour, then pool for 3 hours with the SWCG running about 45% and the chlorine levels stay in check.. RPM is 2500/3000/2500 With that said..
Does anyone run at night to take advantage of less energy costs?
I feel the RPMs I am running are too high, and can be optimized..
When to run during the day and how long?
I am really looking for an optimal schedule to keep levels in check and the pool sparkling.. Most swimming is done after lunch to early evening..
I have read that some people run high speed in early AM to skim and run the bot, followed by low speed for filtering and then a med speed for enjoyment
Id like to take advantage of the VSF pump the way it was supposed to be used.. the previous owner ran it 24 hours a day at 2750 RPMs.. No clue why, but a huge waste of $$
Appreciated in advance
