Section 7. Troubleshooting
Evaluating the possible causes for each problem from top to bottom (first to last) will avoid any extra labor.
¾
Check the salinity level.
(See “Salinity Indicator” section).
¾
Pump operation time too
short
¾
Run pump at least 8 hours per day (1.5
turnovers of all the pool water).
¾
Low Stabilizer (Cyanuric
Acid)
¾
Check water chemistry; stabilizer should
be between 40-80 ppm. If low, add stabilizer
(See “Understanding the Chemistry”).
¾
Chemical Imbalance
¾
Check other chemistry and balance
chemicals. (See “Understanding the
Chemistry”).
2. Green Pool
¾
Chlorine level too low.
¾
See “Chlorine Level Low” above.
¾
System is turned off.
¾
Turn Control Knob clockwise to the
desired setting.
¾
Main fuse blew.
¾
Check main fuse on bottom of Control
Box
and replace if necessary with a 6.3 Amp
250VAC 6x32mm Slow Blow fuse.
One extra fuse supplied with the system.
¾
Breaker jumped
¾
Check the breaker leading to the pool
control.
¾
Power wires cut,
disconnected, or incorrectly
wired.
¾
Check for correct wiring.
4. On/Off Light is Solid
Green
¾
System is on. This is
normal.
5. Red Flow Light is Off
¾
This is normal.
6. Flow Light is Turning On
and Off
¾
This is normal at initial
start-up or if air bubbles are in
pipes.
¾
Wait a few minutes for air to clear. If
continuous, see troubleshooting section
“Flow Light is Solid Red” below.
¾
This is normal for a few minutes at
initial startup or if air is in the lines.
¾
Clean filters and strainers.
¾
Check for closed valves, faulty pump,
etc.
¾
Obstruction or scale
buildup in Cell.
¾
Clean Cell according to instruction
manual. (See “Maintenance” section)
¾
Flow Sensor was not
installed in the correct
direction.
¾
Turn Flow Sensor so arrow faces
direction of water flow.
¾
Flow Sensor is not fully
threaded into the “T”
connector.
¾
Fully thread the Flow Sensor into the
T connector being careful not to damage
the wires or sensors.
3. On/Off Light is OFF: No
power
¾
Other malfunction in
Control Box.
¾
Contact warranty hotline.
7. Flow Light is Solid Red
¾
Insufficient water flow
from pump to Flow Sensor
and Cell.
1. Chlorine Level Low
¾
Low Salinity
