And I was advised to return 2 items , hayward salt cell and pentair pump
He advised me to go with pentair automation system so I was told to exchange the haywayr salt cell with pentair bc otherwise I wouldn't be able to control the cell with the automation system.
I was also told its better to purchase 2 pumps , 1 for the shared pool/spa and one seperate pump for tge waterfall and the bubblers
The pool/spa he said , buy the PENTAIR VSF (not vs) because that way I can control when I'm using the spa for better flow rate BUT my pipes around all 1.5" include the spa (i think the jets built with 2") return line and suction all 1.5"
I know I can control the GPM AND THE RPM , I have 6 jets and spa is spillway , any idea if this would work fine ?
I also have air blower for the spa, so 1 5" will be okay ? Or i will not feel good pressure from the spa jets and will be very minimal ? I'm not trying to get huge pressure on spa jets but the question if it will be very very low or it'll be okay ?thanks

Re: Shared pool , spa
Sorry cant comment on something specific to the local conditions regards the Pentair salt cell etc.
Dont be overly concerned with this. What you could do is join the air venturis into a loop via a 1.5" pipe and run this back to the equipment area. Leaving this open at the equipment area will move the sound of the venturi to the equipment, or alternatively could fit a blower to this line if not enough water in the jets. Blowing the venturi will enhance the spa jets, however need a small valve to bleed off too much air if need, (spa jet 'burps' air straight up the wall if too much air).
