This Program Won't Stop

I took the advice of another member on the forum to help set up my hot water recirculator pump using a looping program. However, I've found that the pump never seems to turn off outside of the hours I've set. Can anyone figure out what I'm doing wrong? Programs are below:

 

If

From 5:00:00AM

To 11:50:00AM (same day)

Or From 7:05:00PM

To 10:00:00PM (same day)

 

Then

Run Program 'Hot Water Loop' (Then Path)

 

Else

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Off

 

 

If

- No Conditions - (To add one, press 'Schedule' or 'Condition')

 

Then

Repeat Every 1 minute

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast On

Wait 8 minutes

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast Off

Wait 2 minutes

 

Else

- No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

 

 

I use this following program for a few light switches I have in various bathrooms that when they are turned on, the pump turns on manually for a set amount of time, otherwise the pump is turned off (this is only for if the switches are turned on outside of the above times).

 

If

Status 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' is Off

And (

Control 'Bathrooms / Master Bath / Master Shower M' is switched On

Or Control 'Bathrooms / Master Bath / Master Shower R' is switched On

Or Control 'Bathrooms / Guest Full Bath Upstairs / Guest Bath Lights' is switched On

)

 

Then

Run Program 'Hot Water Loop' (Then Path)

Wait 16 minutes

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast Off

 

Else

- No Actions - (To add one, press 'Action')

 

From what I see there is nothing to stop the "Hot water loop" program from running continuously once its activated. Even when the main program turns false thus setting the hot water off, the hot water loop program continues to run & eventually turns the hot water back on. You should add the following to the main program's else path: Run program "Hot water loop" (else path).

Stop Program 'Hot Water Loop'

 

 

Also, I am not sure what you meant with this?

 

Then

Repeat Every 1 minute

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast On

Wait 8 minutes

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast Off

Wait 2 minutes

 

By putting a wait 2 minutes at the end, then having it repeat every 1 minute, it will be on for 8 minutes, shut off, wait 2 minutes, then wait 1 minute for the repeat, then turn back on for 8 minutes. It would be cleaner to do the following

 

Then

Repeat Every 3 minute

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast On

Wait 8 minutes

Set 'Garage / Garage Hot Water' Fast Off
