Title: D1 Filter cycle question
Post by: joelc73 on April 26, 2014, 04:53:35 pm
I've had my Amore Bay for a few weeks now and I absolutely love it -- I am so glad I went for it.

I'm just curious about the run time settings in the filter menu.  I'm assuming it's running at some point (besides when I'm using it) but I'm not sure when or how long.  The water has been perfect so I probably shouldn't worry about it -- but I just want to make sure I have it set-up right.

For anyone with a Bay Collection D1, what should the filter runtime settings be?

Thanks in advance

The factory setting seems to be working so yea, why mess with it. However there is access to the programming menu on the control panel that will allow you to adjust if needed. Ask your dealer or go online and get a manual if you don't have one. There will be instructions in there. Been a while since I seen a new D1 but that model I think has a small circulation pump that runs 24/7/365 The little pumps last from a few to 6-8 even more years sometimes. Water chemistry is a factor. But you can also program the first jet pump to run for different lengths of time up to 4 times a day I think. This can be handy in very cold weather to heat and circulate water. Or heavy use when you need to move more water through the filters.

You didn't say if it was new but I am assuming so?

Thanks Tmann. I appreciate your help. Yes, it's brand new.

I didn't realize it had a 24/7 circulation pump. I have the manual but it's pretty useless.

I noticed in the filter menus that it comes on at midnight and runs for a duration of 10 minutes. Does that seem long enough? 

Thanks

Watch your water and adjust longer if the bather load becomes heavy enough to make it cloudy.
