Spa jets randomly turning off then come back on?

Hello,
Our pool is now closed up for the winter, but just like last year - we are using the hot tub. This problem started before I winterized. I thought I had remedied it by turning down VSF the spa jets to 3150. We have a Pentair system, and we didn’t have this problem last winter.
My guess is it might be a water pressure issue? They turn off for about 15 seconds and then come back on. If I turn it way back like 2200 it won’t turn itself off. I cleaned the filters a couple months ago with a pressure washer when I first noticed the problem. It’s really acting up tonight, however. Could it be my filters are still a problem? I have an extra set. I can swap them out unless there’s another issue, I should look into?
 
When you say spa jets are turning off, is the pump turning off?

What model pump do you have?

What Pentair system do you have?

What model filter do you have?

Post pictures of your equipment pad.

Hello,
I could not find a model number, but the spa jet pump is called Pentair Intelliflo3 VSF.
As far as the overall system, it’s all Pentair and i’ve got the Intellichem but it’s a saltwater pool so just the muratic acid tank. I can look harder to see if I can find any model numbers on other components, but these photos and video might do the trick?

Intelliflo3 model number is 011075.

Does the pump turn off when the spa jets stop?

Show me the pump settings you are running the pump at?
