Questions and answers
Our Pentair pump thermal mode is set default at 40 degree set point, flow GPM, and and speed 20%. Is that what we should have it on? Also, at around 1 **** in 19 degree temperature, our app showed speed at 20% but GPM flowing. Is that normal? What do you recommend for parameters for a 12000 gallon pool?
