❄️10. Configuring Freeze Protect
Last updated
Last updated
Freeze protection should be enabled and configured for all pools where Clyr is controlling equipment.
Freeze protect is not enabled by default in Clyr. It needs to always be configured.
Currently, freeze protect will enable when the water or air is 44F depending on how you configure it. Let's walk through that now.
First, you need to go to "Settings->Freeze Protect" on the desired location. Once you're on this screen, please enable freeze protect with the slider and accept the terms and conditions.
Once freeze protect is enabled, you're going to see several configuration items on this screen.
Valve Rotation Time - this is the time where, if you enable valves to rotate (we will show your shortly) how often they should rotate between two positions
Temperature Source - you can click on this field and tell Clyr to either use the water temperature from the Clyr Smart Sensor or you can tell it to grab real time weather data based on the location's zip code. Location based (shown above) is based on zip code
To configure equipment, please click on the controller under "Devices Configuration". In the picture above, clicking on "CLYR_8CF1..." will go to the next screen.
You can now configure all pieces of equipment that should be active during freeze protection. For pumps, RPMs can be set individually if they are variable speed. For valves, you can choose between two rotation positions as shown below:
In the picture above, the pool valve will rotate from position 1 (it's default position) to position 2 based on the time interval on the previous page.
