    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    I just spent an hour on the phone with Pentair tech support. They were trying all sorts of usual trouble shooting things- adjusting temp up and down from the PC app, checking the wireless antenna connection and then we did a "soft reset" by simply pressing the reset button on the ET panel...

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    I get the red flame when I press SPA on the app, not directly on the heater. Pressing SPA (or Pool) on the heater doesn't do anything as it seems to be getting controlled/overridden by the Easy Touch

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    Jim, I checked and my app acts the same as you describe- red flame on when the heater kicks on and red flame off when the heater shuts off. What is really odd is when I'm actually using the spa I know that the red flame has come on when it's time to resume heating to maintain temp but the...

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    Poolman- what "cut" wire are you referring to? Those one with the red adapters on the end that aren't plugged in (first pic attached)? From the schematic (2nd picture) I assumed these go to the actuators and were unplugged when they winterized my pool (although not sure why one is still...

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    Jim- I checked and the lights on the SWCG do stay on in service or timeout mode. Sounds like when I have the company out to open it this Friday I should have them take a look. Checking your other suggestions re: the heater... Thx

    Ok. Is that bad? Is it related to my heater issue?

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    I appear to be wired the same as your pics- see attached. I also noticed a bunch of disconnected wires in the easy touch box (see 3rd picture). I'm guessing these are the actuators as part of the winterization of the pool and not related? Thx

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    How would I determine the type of wiring? From what I can see, there is one thin, flat wire that goes from the easy touch to the heater. It kind of looks like an old landline telephone wire and I can make out the writing "CL2" on it.

    Spa not maintaining set tempurature

    I've searched around this site and elsewhere and can't quite find my situation (or solution) and I've had the "pro" out 3 times who seems fairly useless. So let me ask the pro's here. Note that I had the following issue which repaired the problem of the heater shutting off well before getting...

    Pentair ETi 400 shutting off after a few minutes

    Turns out it was the float switch (error code FS). I guess it's common for the condensate hose to get gunked up on these units causing the float switch to trip and shut off the unit. I didn't see exactly how he cleaned it but the tech said that if it happens again you just need to hose it out...

    Pentair ETi 400 shutting off after a few minutes

    Hello, thx for the advice but unfortunately neither of these worked. I have a tech coming out to see if my issue is covered under warranty. Thx!

    Pentair ETi 400 shutting off after a few minutes

    Hello- My pool guy was out this week repairing a valve that cracked due to water making it's way into the pool return- our pool is currently closed for the winter and the hot tub remains open; somehow the toggle on the actuator got flipped (???) and water made it's way into the pool returns...

    Advice on maintaining Chlorine in 880 gallon spa w/SWG

    Looks like I have the Easy Touch and attached are the pictures. I'm currently running the pump 24/7 at 1,800 rpm and the temp is set to 76F.

    Advice on maintaining Chlorine in 880 gallon spa w/SWG

    I don't know that I have any "automation". When the pool was turned on I discussed some sort of Intellichem with the installer but it was a whopping $7K so I passed. Where would I look to see if I have an Easytouch, IntelliTouch and/or dual body system?

    Cost to Heat Hot Tub Year Round - Builder Worry

    I'm here in Denver and had a directionally similar conversation with my builder's sales guy. I have a pool/spa combo and I was told I could leave the pool open in the winter and allow the water to drop as low as 50 and then heat it up to 90 in a couple hours when I wanted to use it. That was a...
