I'm thinking of investing a bit of energy in this integratrion. Don't hesitate to share your improvement ideas and needs.

I don't know if this is something you want but in my case I need a different way of calculating the hours the pump needs to run. I have a natural pool with filtration via plants and lava split. Every where I read about this my water should be completely been run through the natural filter every 4-5 hours (in the winter of course less) . So My calculation needs to know what the size is of my pool + the pump capacity (l/h) and then calculate how many times it should go on and off in these 4-5 hours.

Hi, it will be great to configure the algorithm for the Number of hours to run the pool pump.

I would like to set Temperature/2,3,4,5,6 = hours to run

Best regards Tom

Hi. I plan to use a frequency converter for this new season, would it be possible to add a calculated filtration time coefficient to increase it when I lower the frequency, and therefore the water flow?

I have also two feature request:

  1. I would like to have a parameter for the maximum time the pool pump runs without interruption, until a break is made for a chosen time to prevent overheating.
  2. I would like to have a „Manuel interrupt“, so if I manually turn on the switch via Home Assistant, your integration should allow this AND turn off the plug after a configured time. This is helpful if I put chlorine into the pool and therefore want the pump to circulate the water some time after it.
  3. Out of safety reasons I unplug my pool pump if people use the pool. That means, that the integration would have to recognize weather the pump is actually running or not, what can be achieved by monitoring the power consumption of the pump.

Please let me know if it isn’t clear to understand!

Hi it will be really great if we can setup pool pump runs between "heures creuses" for example mine are from 02:00 to 06:00 AND 14:00 to 16:00.

Cheers
