FREEZE PROT
Jandy · AquaLink RS / iAquaLink WiFi-Enabled Pool & Spa Automation Controller with Mobile App Control
The air temperature sensor detected near-freezing conditions and the controller activated freeze protection mode — the pump runs continuously and the heater may activate to prevent water in the pipes, filter, and heater from freezing; this is NORMAL protective behavior that prevents costly freeze damage to pool equipment and plumbing; do NOT turn off equipment during freeze protection; the system returns to normal operation automatically when the air temperature rises above the freeze threshold (typically 36-38°F); the air temperature sensor should be installed in shade and away from heat sources for accurate readings
