Analysis paralysis and fear of making a bad decision are weighing on me as we get really close to the start of our build. The dig day is scheduled for Monday weather permitting - so fingers crossed! We can’t wait to get this started!
One of the bigger decisions that we have left is which Pentair automation solution to choose, Intelliconnect or Intellicenter. Intelliconnect is included in our spec, and the PB has quoted an additional $3300 (installed) to upgrade to Intellicenter Including the sensor to link to the autocover (we can then automatically adjust SWCG output depending on cover position).
My fear is that while I really don’t want to bump the budget up to add Intellicenter, I will be unhappy with Intelliconnect based on many threads about it on TFP. We can live without the functionality of the Intellicenter, our pool is simple, but if the Intelliconnect is unstable and it limits our ability to locally control our pool I will be really frustrated. Then again I have read a number of posts here about frustration with the Intellicenter app as well.
Is anyone out there that can provide recent info on Intelliconnect? I understand the new Pentair Home app is now in place instead of Link2O, has that been a marked improvement?
Feedback appreciated!
