When the power is cut by my pools timer, the pump shows an Error code of "Err01" before it turns off. Is this normal?

If the pump does not need to be reset each time it turns off, I would think it is fine. The Err01 means undervoltage which does occur as it turns off.

We were disappointed as well to learn that we could not program this pump! Is there a way to add a timer to this unit? We purchased a home with an existing Pentair which was failing and our pool inspector did not inform us of any of the issues with our pool. So, now $6000 into our pool, we are still learning by trial and error. Can we add an external timer? PS. Can anyone recommend a good site to teach us about the pool chemicals we have to add? Thanks in advance!

If the backup pump doesn't run for more then 10 seconds ( in think), it will not sound. Hold the float up for more then that time to test

I have run mine through two consecutive two hour cycles.... No problems... All depends on how much is in your pool I would imagine...

It does not automatically reset, you have to turn it off and on. As to building codes for pools, I have no idea.

I called the 800# & they said it needs to be ran under warm water for 20 seconds, dry it & it should be fine. Did that to mine over & over again but still didnt stop my alarm from going off. Had to return mine, i had the same problem as you.

Have never seen 'service' on control panel, only error codes. Here's a link to the error codes. Sorry can't be of more help. http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Hayward-error-codes.pdf

Im wondering if this worked for you? I have the same pool which is about 10,000 gallons- higher than the 7,000 it states. I read that you just need to look at how much the pump cycles per hour- was this one big enough for you? How's it working?

15 Amps at 110 Volts AC is 1,650 Watts. That would be the absolute most it could handle. If your pool pump is over 1500 Watts you may be better off with a larger timer (in case of voltage spikes and sags). If your pool pump is less than 1000 Watts it should run for years (mine has).

Hi, It depends which fault code you have. I had a pump that would'nt come on. I tested the system and found the pump seized. But the main problem was the rear air system shocks leaking causing the pump to run excessively. I replaced the rear shocks and pump.Hope this helps you.

The three timers are to control up to 3 items. Each timer will activate one leg of the 220 volt to activate power to that item. The key is events. You can have it set to Mode one only to turn the pump on and off and create up 7 different events. In your case you'd have 3 events to spare. See here http://www.intermatic.com/en/Products/Pool_and_Spa/Electronic_Controls/Electronic_Timer_Mechanisms/P1000ME_Series/P1353ME.aspx and the instruction manual here https://www.inyopools.com/manuals/1085/PE153%20Manual.pdf

This is a single circuit timer. Unless the pool pump and chlorine generator operate at the same voltage, I would recommend against using this.Best case would be a two circuit timer.

Gary,If your pump requires the 4500 watts for more than a split second it will not start.Joe

Yes make sure pump timer is set to proper am or pm and running. Second that valve is installed properly under the sink. If this does not work do an exchange for a new valve.This is my second unit i have installed myself and instructions are very clear never had any problems.

None I just removed the old one and plugged the new one in. You might want to have a poolman do the work.

I had the same problem and the person who takes care of my pool said it would need to be replaced. He told me it would cost less for me to order it through Amazon than having him change it for me. The new unit is super easy to change. I just popped the old one off the wall. Look how it is plugged in and do the exact same thing with the new one. Mine now works and looks great.

Gino posted the correct answer. The part on the board is a current inrush limiter. Basically these are a current diode that is sometimes damaged during surges or a nearby lightning strike. ( In my case) I would attempt a repair if you aren't opening your pool for a while. I purchased the replacement board and I am repairing the damaged one and will keep it as a spare. We have frequent lightning storms and I will probably end up using the spare at some point.
