Pool pump timers
My pool, like most of the pools I've seen, use an Intermatic
mechanical timer to turn the pool pump on and off. It does not seem that there are any low cost digital timers available. Is there any reason I could not use an irrigation timer and relay like those used on sprinkler pumps? The only drawback I can see is that its a bit more complicated to simply turn the pump on whenever you wish using the digital timers vs throwing a mechanical switch. |

Pool pump timers
I had the exact same dilemma and then I found the Sylvannia SA310. It's a
heavy duty digital timer, perfect for pools. This is a newly introduced product on the market and it's $95. I just installed it last week for the pool and I love it so far. http://www.amazon.com/Sylvania-SA310.../dp/B000KKNENU |
