SECTION III. TROUBLESHOOTING
System Problem | Cause | Remedy |
|
|
|
Failure to Pump | 1. Pump will not prime - too much air. |
Check suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Secure lid on pump strainer pot and make sure lid gasket is in place. Check water level to make sure skimmer is not drawing air.
2.Pump will not prime - too little water. Make sure suction lines, pump strainer, and pump volute are full of water. Make sure valve on suction line is working and open (some systems do not have valves). Check water level to make sure water is available through skimmer.
3. | Pump strainer clogged. | Clean pump strainer pot. |
4. | Pump strainer gasket defective. | Replace gasket. |
Reduced Capacity and/or Head 1. Air pockets or leaks in suction line.
Check suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Secure lid on pump strainer pot and make sure lid gasket is in place. Check water level to make sure skimmer is not drawing air.
2. | Clogged impeller. | Remove, clean and adjust. |
3. | Pump strainer clogged. | Clean suction trap. |
