POOL AND SPA CONNECTION
Using One Pump and One Filter for the Pool and the Spa
An installation featuring a single pump and a single filter for the pool and the spa is easier
and more economical. Using home automation, it is possible to always keep the pool and the
spa to the desired temperature. Otherwise, it is always possible to have only the desired system
functioning by positioning the valves to have the water circulating in the pool or in the spa.
1) It is more difficult to maintain ideal levels of chemicals in the water when using a
single filter because this type of installation prevents the pool or the spa from being
filtered. An independent home automation system with automatic valves can reduce
this problem, or you must be very assiduous in maintenance.
2) For the pool heat pump to automatically detect the switch over from pool to spa and
vice versa, a flow switch must be added on the spa line.
Using Independent Pumps and Filters for the Pool and the Spa
An installation featuring independant pumps and filters for the pool and the spa is a little
more complicated and expensive. However, it is more advantageous because the pool or the
spa is never left without filtration. Water is therefore easier to maintain.
1) For the pool heat pump to detect the change made either manually or by an
independant system, a flow switch must be added on the spa line.
