Jandy SpeedSet Programming

Talk about easy Variable Speed Control! The New Speedset is worlds ahead of any standalone VS pool pump out there. It couldn’t be easier to set up and control. 





The Jandy SpeedSet controller is the next generation in VS pump control. It is the direct replacement for the Jandy JEP-R and it has many great new features.

It has a large display which comes in super handy while programming and adjusting the schedules. Compared to any pump display currently on the market the screen is 10x larger. If you don’t think the larger screen is a big deal, after using the SpeedSet you will wonder how you ever survived on those tiny slices of a screen on other pumps. 

The FlyWheel has to be the best upgrade in my opinion. Those left, right, up, and down arrow keys are a real pain on most VS pumps.  You can easily get lost in a menu and forget how to exit it. Not so with the FlyWheel. It is a dial that you spin and the menu items just scroll left or right and up or down depending on where you are in the menu.  It takes about 5 seconds to get used to and after that, you will want it on every VS Pump.

I should mention that the SpeedSet controller can be ordered mounted on the Jandy VS FloPro,  as well as their EPump and their VS PumpHP. You can get a wall-mount SpeedSet to replace an existing JEP-R as well. On the pump, you can turn the SpeedSet 4 different ways to position the screen perfectly for the best viewing. A simple counterclockwise twist is all you need to do. 

On the bottom of the SpeedSet is Automation Pass-Through Wiring which allows you to connect an automated system and use the SpeedSet to bypass it when needed. It’s a smart extra that will make controlling the pump easy if say you need to add chlorine to a pool and need it to run for 3 hours. Simply hit the “Clean” button and that is all you need to do. Or if you want to clean the filter or pump basket, hit the “Stop” button. So no need to even open the outside automated panel.

When the top lid is closed the button bar is exposed. Not to worry the buttons are 100% waterproof. But this makes it super easy to tell if the pump is working. You can also hit a button without having to open the top of the SpeedSet. The button bar has 
Stop – this turns the pump off indefinitely – lights up red.

Auto – This means the pump is in normal operation mode and will run the programmed schedule
Clean – You can set a specific run time and pump RPM and when you hit the “Clean” button it will go on for that set time and then automatically return to the programmed scheduled times. For example, you can set the “clean” button to run for “4 hours at 2800 RPM.

Buttons 1 and 2 – can also be programmed for a specific run time and speed. For example, if you wanted to use “1” as your spa button, you could put the valves in the spa position, hit “1” and program it to run for 2 hours at 3450 RPM. That way the spa gets the full RPM with a push of a button. The “2” can be programmed similarly. Then you have virtual buttons 3-8 which probably will never be used but they are there regardless. Virtual buttons 3-8 can be programmed the same way.
The SpeedSet can hold up to 10 programmed schedules. You probably will not need more than 3 but having more options is better. With the flywheel and the easy menu setups, programming a scheduled run time could not be easier.

Can I Use Clorox Bleach in my Pool?

Image
Regular Unscented Bleach I started doing pool service when I was 16 years old back in 1988. I took a break from the industry and did some Real Estate Investing and ran a small business for awhile. But I always loved working outdoors and so I decided to do pool service again. So I have about 15 years of practical experience in the field. My specialty has always been water chemistry as I was formally trained by an experts in the field. So I am well versed in most of the chemicals that are on the market today and I have used and tested a lot of different products. So when you hear those in the industry discourage and even slander anyone who uses bleach in their pool, you may think that it is not a product that you should use. In fact as you read this article you will find that using bleach and only bleach is a safe and smart choice. There is a lot of ignorance surrounding household bleach and the use of bleach in a swimming pool. Here is a video I made that goes in more detail on usin

Mr. Pen Non-contact Voltage Meter - Don't Get Electrocuted!

Image
One of the biggest issues you will run into with anything connected to an AC power is if that device or equipment is receiving power. In the pool service industry, this often is the case when you find that a pool pump won’t turn on. Or if a pool timer doesn't on, is it receiving power? Also for repairs with so many breakers being unmarked, how do you know you turned off the right breaker. Bottom line, a non-contact detector like the Mr. Pen is an easy way to see if power is going to the equipment/device and the line is active. A non-contact voltage detector is just that. You don’t need to make contact with the line like with a Multimeter. Plus you don’t need to adjust any settings or knobs to get a voltage reading. Simply hold the Mr. Pen over a cord or wire whip and if there is AC power a red light will turn on and an audible beep will come out of the device. A very easy way to tell if power or a current is present.  To order: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B092LFYTG5?&_encoding=UT
