0:44 best instructions ever.
Sad (but great) Pentair’s lack of user friendliness forces me to watch and relearn programming every spring… (the great part is kudos to this video. Appreciate you every year!!!
Same here. This is my fifth year. Pentair should be embarrassed.
Awesome video... I’ve had this pump for over ten years and didn’t realize all the features. Thanks a ton!
Best instructional video ever made. Camera work, sound and content are all perfect. THANK YOU!
Couldn't believe my Pentair pump control panel could be any more confusing until I saw this previous model. An "X" for "select"? Whose idea was that? Congratulations to the presenter for making some sense of it.
Great instructions for the most user unfriendly pump I’ve ever tried to program!
When my Pentair variable speed pump was installed about 3 years ago, there was only one sketchy CZcams video about it. Finally, someone come up with a "how to" video in real time. I tried printing out the programming instructions from the manual, but it might as well have been in Greek (or maybe Chinese). Thank you!
I like the way you explained the different features of the Pentair .
Excellent, fast and to the point. I have a new Intelliflo with version 2.x firmware so my buttons don't quite match yours but straight forward. Page 15 of the manual also describes SCHEDULE settings.
You're the best simple explanation and to the point w/o music too!
As new to having a pool this helped a lot in understanding. Had a tech come out and was very helpful in explaining the functions
Bought a home with this pump and could not find any good videos and User Manual online is/was a little confusing.....but I found this one...I know its old but man this saved the day. Thank you.
Excellent tutorial for a extremely advanced pool pump, thank you
Massive help. Thank you for sharing the knowledge!
Thanks for posting.The best video on youtube to set the Intelliflow pump and I have looked at them all of them!
Wow, thanks John! That our goal.
Awesome job explaining how to program this controller...THANK YOU!
Thank you for this amazing video a great step by step tutorial very easy to follow you have been a very big help.👍👍👍👍
Excellent explanation. Thank you for being so detailed.
Excellent step by step video! Thanks a ton!!
Great video, easy to follow instructions.
Best video on this pump out there, thank you!!!
Thank you. My house came with a pool with this pump. Had no info on it. Thank you.
Good stuff. Thanks! This pump is pretty incredible.
EXCELLENT video from one pool dude to another
I am a pool dude too. Hey, did ya notice anything off, if ya pause it at 0:44?
Awesome video, really helped me out today, thanks for sharing
I just bought a house and it had this pump. it works awesome.
this thing has been stressing me so bad. thanks for the video.
Came for the pump instruction. Bonus education on "priming" at 0:44.
Great video, appreciate the assistance.
Man, I was struggling with the directions and and other videos on the scheduling until you explained how it works with the manual buttons (1-4) This is the best video on this subject. Thanks for sharing.
I’m not too sharp, I’m glad I’m not the only one that didn’t think the manual wasn’t helpful.
I've been trying to read those stereo directions called a Manual and I've gotta tell ya, it was confusing. Thanks for putting all that complication into simple English. It's much appreciated!
Thank you so much for being clear and concise.
Good instructional video with sound advice. Thanks.
Now...If I can just g outside and do this. This instruction video was absolutely tremendous!! I am keeping you on my sort of speak, "You Tube SPEED DIAL"...I have no idea really on my speeds min and max, so I am going to do yours, important thing for me is to get this thing up and running, it has been installed (used), for 2 months and not yet programmed. This is going to help so much, cant thank you enough!!
Man. Thank you. This is my go-to video every time I need to make changes ❤️
Thanks, I was having a hard time with the instructions your video helped a lot.
Glad we could help.
Tremendously helpful!!!! Thank you so much!
Thank you. Love the pump, but the control panel is very difficult to use for the homeowner who only needs to change things once or twice a year. It's great once it is setup. BTW - thanks for the info about the watts, I will have to see how mine is setup to make sure I am not wasting electricity by running it too fast when I could run it slower for longer.
Great video that has helped me understand this pump.
Going over to my neighbors house who has this pump and is having difficulty with programming. After watching this video , I should be able to program it for him. Thanks for the video. I think Pentair could do a better job in the programming of this motor. It seems like a PITA to me.
Thanks for the video. It was very helpful.
Very good job explaining the features on this pump. I inherited one of these intelleflo pumps when I moved in a couple of years ago. It really does a nice job.
This is awesome! Clearly explained. Once you get the hang of the programming keys it’s pretty easy to setup. Thank you!!
Good video. Good explanations.
Very helpful just what i needed...wanted to know that i could set quick clean without ruining my set schedule.
Great video!!! Bailed me out after someone messed up the programs on my pump. Thanks for posting this. I am going to save this video for future reference. Mahalo brudda!
Exactly. Very well explained.
AAAA++++ instruction and clarity! Thank you
Great video. Just got a pool with this pump system, and this video helped a lot. Only odd thing is that, for some reason, I have the urge to see if I can get the pump to latch on correctly to my man boob for proper flow.
great video! Thank you much appreciated!
So Helpful!!! Thank YOU!!!
Thank you for this video!
1:52 Thank you for the great instructions! This should not be so confusing!🤔
Thank You so much for your help.
Great Video SPS.
Great video, it helped tremendously, best on I have found!
Thank you much.. i had this pumped installed and the installer left without a tutorial.. So thank you
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!
Loved the video - I just had this system installed on my pool.
Awesome. My pool guy was running the pump from 7 am til 5pm at 3400 RPM all day. One program and my electric bills were sky high.
Your pool guy knows best, he knows better than you at least
@@poolmonkey7479 we fired him and the new guy runs it 24/7 but at variable speeds
Variable speed pumps are the biggest rip off.
Great job 👍 thank you sir
Excellent video ty
great info... Thank you!
great video
When my pump starts, priming is 1800 RPM and the wattage is around 600, those priming readings at the end are crazy !
You should not have to resort to videos to attempt to program these pumps when it is the change of seasons. Honestly- Pentair- shame on you. Thank you for doing this video- and glad to see I am not the only one dealing with this thing upside down.
They are a step toward denying pools to the middle class
Awful brand. If the guy who designed this abortion would show up at my house he would be floating.
Thank you buddy,
Great video, helped me out when I was in a pickle
Great video ! Must watch for new to pool pumps - what type of schedule do you recommend, I know you kept mentioning you were just picking speeds and times as an example.
😂 uh did no one else catch that toaster bathtub line? 😂😂
Thanks!
It’s nice to know I’m not the only one that has problems pushing the correct button! Is there a way to delete a schedule?
Very helpful video, thanks. As Fall and Winter approach how should times and speeds be adjusted?
Hi great video... We just took over the maintenance of our pool. We are getting an error that says "Key Error" Key not in use! Can you tell us anything about this error? Do we need a physical key? Thank you so much
Pushing on the wrong button on the pad. Use select or enter
This
You commented on the wrong video :)
None of the responses made any sense lol
No You don’t need a physical key,key error only means You pushing the WRONG BUTTON
I learned with this video. Thanks
Know question I have a pump that every time i go for maintenance, it resets by itself. Schedule stays the same but the clock changes time? What could it be?
AWESOMENESS
Thank you !!! very informative. I have a couple of questions? Are the first 4 buttons fixed meaning you cant reprogram? I noticed you started with program 5. Also can you explain what actually happens when you hit the quick clean button? what does the pump do? PS I really love this pump. Thank You!
It was Helpful to a point. And then he started running away with it and going to fast glad he’s not a schoolteacher. I will just go to the manual and figure it out.
That’s the beauty of CZcams. You can always pause and rewind. We’ll definitely keep your feedback in mind for future videos though. Thanks for the input.
Agree hard to keep up with all the back and forth. Be easier if he stayed on track on thing at a time. After rewinding plenty times finally got it.
Easy to follow you. The manual is a nightmare. Lol
Question: what is the nickel sized black cap on the side for. I found mine had fallen off. Air blows out of the fitting and I don't know whether the cap is supposed to be left on (capped) or off (uncapped)
Does it feature daylight savings selection? I could find it on mine. It would be a nice feature to add.
Just got a house with this pump. Could you do a video explaining this pump with the use of a Aqualink RS4 remote from inside the house?
I can't get past the "Attachment - The Key To Successful Breastfeeding" slide you showed for a split second at the beginning 🤣
Thanks this helped a lot. I just lowered 12am-3am setting from 3100 to 2800. 7am-7pm to 450( which was not set and I knew nothing about) Quick Clean is good to go. Previous owner had all types of settings for all the speeds which was confusing me. I'm trying to simplify matters. Next I need to find out how many gallons the pool is for the most efficient settings for AZ.
+Abdullah Mulazim 450RPM for 12 hours may not be enough. If the pool has been happy since you commented then feel free to ignore this but you may need to raise your low speed up until you find the happy medium where your daily water turnover is correct.
Just moving to a new house with a variable speed pump. In my old home I would only run the pump at night. What is the benefit of running the pump during the day? Also, I have pop up cleaners. Is there a minimum speed to keep these being effective?
Your video on how to program the Pentair Intelliflo Pump was very helpful but ours was set by the installer. Is there a way to see what the current setting is?
What speed is required to keep the flow switch closed? The flow switch must be closed for the salt system to run and make chlorine. I'm having my salt system show no flow at 2000 RPM and below.
Very through demo, thanks.
My question is regarding 'Spa' pump vs 'Pool' pump, specifically what/how to program the 'Spa' pump, since all the schedules I set seem to fire off with the 'Pool' pump green (ie: ON in the phone app). I can manually activate the 'Spa' pump from the app (our spa is embedded in pool corner).
Are there any specific program settings to be mindful of, regarding 'Spa' pump?
We have this pump for both the pool and spa. How do you turn on the pump and what buttons do you select to use with the spa?
Take a trip to El Salvador and install one of this pumps for us Sr.
great information. Personally I just need a quick one program direction. But appreciate the detail may be good another time. too much info for me plus i am technically inept so just need quick and simple for one program timer
I just had the latest Pentair 3hp pump model 11056 professionally installed. I verified the settings with Pentair tech support. I did the math and do not really see the electric savings. The pump runs for 8 hours at 1300 rpm using 146 Watt/hours total 1168 watt/hours, next it runs for 2 hours at 2750 rpm 1265 Watt/hours total 2530 watt/hours, The pump needs to run for 1 minute at 3450 rpm 38 Watt/hours to get the Kreepy Krawley (Pentair pool sweep) to start. Total for the day 3736 Watt/hours.
My old Hayward 3hp SUPER 11 pump was running 3450 rpm for 2 hours a day at 8.3 amps on 230V total 3818 watt/hours per day. Power savings of only 82 watt/hours per day with the new Pentair pump. I know for sure that I will not see any savings on my electric bill with all the other power I use.
ALSO: for a brand new model pump it's programed with a obsolete daylight savings time. Daylight saving time before 2007.
funlovingJohn however, your new pump is circulating water for 10 hours each day where your old one was only running 2 hours.
Excellent video… I had a power outage and now my pentair pump doesn’t want to communicate with my Aqualink RS 6 . Any advise on how to reconnect them together ?
How to factory reset the pump?
thanks for the video, whats the recommend rpm for a 10k gal pool using this system?(btw model is 160301 filter model is CCP420), I heard varied speed pump has the advantage to do different rpm speed setting so it's more efficient and cost saving as well.
Nice video. I used to set my schedule but there’s now two separate schedules. How do you delete an old programmed schedule?
Ok I have the exact same unit but mine doesn't have the F° temp option. It has everything else you did but that one. What am i doing wrong?
Hi, great video, I have 2 STA-RITE IntelliPro Variable Speed Programmable Pump that were install in 2014. I use "Set Time" to set the IntelliPro system time. The system clock is suppose to store the correct time for up to 96 hours after power is shut off or before a reset is needed. When the clock reaches 12am it stops and the pumps do not come on as scheduled because the clock is not working. I have to go in manually each day and reset the system clock. Thoughts, suggestions? Thank you
Why set two speeds to run ?
Hello, great videos easy to understand thank you. I like to ask you a question on the speed of the pump. My pool is 25,000 gallons, can you tell me the best speed to run in and for how long. The pool service company keeps telling me if I run it at a low speed for a longer period of time the pool water is not being filtered. They recommend running it at a high speed for 6 Hours and for some reason the water still looks a little dirty and at times it starts building yellow algae. Can you help me out with any information thank you?.
What speed and/or flow would you recommend for a 13,500 gal pool for quick clean? For 10 hour run to heat?
I come to this video every pool season. Why the settings doesn’t save when pool is shut for the season?
What does the exclamation point on the programming display mean. Mine is blinking?
