We have a spa waterfall that goes into the pool, will this set it off?

Absolutely, if the water jet from the filter ripples the water too much it will set off.

no it does not shut off automatically and has to be placed on top of the pool cover

We do! If your hot tub has a waterfall, you may have to get the water out of the speaker. But sometimes we put ours in the drink holder. Have been using for several months and no issues.

assuming it's not moving water through it the entire time it will burn up, eventually. There are models out there with a floater switch that will shut the pump down when the water level gets too low. Sounds like that would be better for you.

In addition to the above, keep in mind that water has to pool around the cord. Not a lot, but you need a blob of water about the size of a dime crossing between contact points on the cord to set it off, so it may not detect dripping water unless it's on the floor where the water ends up.

No. The on off switch is on the part that is lowered into the water. best way to stop flow is just to lift it out of the water- it doe not appear to be damaged if it runs w/out water in it for a little bit. My guess is that was no on/off switch at the top to increase reliability and reduce the cost of the device.

Yes. There is a float mechanism in the bottom of the resevoir which shuts the unit off when water is low

No. They will automatically turn on once the water comes out, but you cant turn it off.

Yes. It's the way you set it. It's very sensitive and a strong wind will set it off. Feel very safe having this in my pool

Yes, for the sprinklers running down the slides you do but you can let the bottom pool fill up and then turn off the water.

Joseph... the answer is NO! The timer can be set to start and stop "once" OR "twice" a day. The amount of time you want the water to run during the ONE or TWO sessions can be broke down to hours and minutes.

The water flow should come from your pool's return valves. You if your pool if plumbed for a slide you should be fine.

I have a 2500 pump and my goes higher than that, it goes about 10-15 feet up and yes the valve should be shut for the waterfall action, less waterfall open valve as needed.

Yes. The float will turn it off and on, but you must make sure you do not submerge the power plug.

It is activated by Motion so ANY MOTION will set it off. Short answer - yes
1570103
Yes. You can set the timer for 1 to 12 hours or to continuous for up to 24. It has automatic cut off when it runs out of water.

Yes, do not turn it on before it is in they water and shut it off before it comes out of the water
