In Texas dealing with the freeze. When my pool freeze settings turn on, my pool goes goes into pool mode and the jacuzzi blower turns on. The blower causes allot of water to go over the side and I have to add water several times a day. I've never adjusted the freeze settings since I bought the house. Does the blower have to be on? Can I have the pool in pool mode and spa mode instead? Thx!

What automation system do you have? Please add that to your signature.
You need to disable the freeze protection in your automation for your blower.

My blower is not on freeze protection, since its air in the line until it reaches the spa.

That means you have a Jandy Aqualink automation system. In your PDA you should be able to select what items are freeze protected.
I can't have both pool mode and spa mode on. Pool mode runs water through the spa fountain water feature but not the spa jets. When the blower is on, water is also shot out from the spa jets. Is there another way to have water running through bother the pool and spa jets simultaneously? Thx again!

Thank you for the manual. I can disable the blower - will water still floor through the spa jets?

Most systems will alternate the pool and spa system (without blower and heater) every so many minutes.
Water will still flow, but you can check with your hand to make sure. I have a similar setup, I have everything on freeze protection except the blower or the vacuum. I also went a little crazy and wrapped some heating wire around it covered everything with towels and then covered all that with a tarp. I am West of Fort Worth.
Not sure the flamingo is going to make it.
