- For pool and spa combination systems, an i5PS, i8PS, or larger IntelliCenter configuration may be required.
- This model does not include salt chlorination components. If salt chlorination is needed, the proper IntelliChlor cell, transformer, and related components must be purchased separately or selected as part of a salt bundle.
- Verify the number of required relays, valves, lights, pumps, heaters, and water features before ordering to make sure the i5P system is the correct size for the installation.

- Follow Pentair installation instructions for wiring, bonding, grounding, relay connections, communication wiring, and wireless setup.
- Equipment programming will be required after installation, including circuits, schedules, pump speeds, heater settings, lighting, and app setup.
- Additional relays, expansion cards, valve actuators, sensors, or salt system components may be required depending on the pool equipment layout.
