System

This

 

situation

 

can

 

be

 

caused

 

by

 

simply

 

using

 

more

 

water

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

than

 

what

 

is

 

coming

 

in.

  

Compare

 

water

 

outlet

 

flow

 

with

 

“current

 

flow”

 

meter

 

control

 

reading

 

on

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

while

 

filling.

  

 

A

 

few

 

inlet

 

flow

 

problems

 

are;

 

low

 

yield

 

well,

 

well

 

pump

 

failure,

 

clogged

 

plumbing

 

or

 

water

 

filtration

 

restricting

 

water

 

flow

 

filling

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr.

   

No

 

water

 

from

 

the

 

Bubble

 

Up

 

(alarm

 

is

 

sounding)

   

Cause:

 

Water

 

Alarm

 

Valve

 

shut

 

water

 

off

 

to

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr.

 

 

Example:

  

The

 

Bubble

Up®

  

Jr

 

Interactive

 

includes

 

a

 

water

 

alarm

 

valve

 

which

 

sounds

 

an

 

alarm

 

and

 

stops

 

water

 

filling

 

the

 

Bubble

 

Up

 

when

 

a

 

leak

 

or

 

overflow

 

condition

 

is

 

detected.

  

Once

 

water

 

stops

 

filling

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr,

 

continued

 

water

 

use

 

will

 

cause

 

the

 

low

 

water

 

float

 

switch

 

to

 

stop

 

the

 

Bubble

 

Up

 

pump

 

from

 

delivering

 

water

 

flow

 

to

 

the

 

house.

   

 

Examples:

  

The

 

alarm

 

conditions

 

to

 

cause

 

the

 

water

 

alarm

 

valve

 

to

 

close

 

and

 

stop

 

water

 

from

 

entering

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

are;

 

1

‐ 

the

 

water

 

sensor

 

box

 

detects

 

water

 

on

 

the

 

floor

 

around

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

2

‐ 

the

 

water

 

sensor

 

terminal

 

block

 

detects

 

water

 

on

 

top

 

of

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

or

 

3

‐ 

the

 

high

 

water

 

float

 

switch

 

senses

 

high

 

water

 

in

 

the

 

main

 

tank.

 

 

These

 

conditions

 

are

 

caused

 

by

 

water

 

detection

 

due

 

to

 

high

 

water

 

levels,

 

water

 

leaks,

 

condensation

 

Etc.

   

 

Also

 

if

 

the

 

air

 

vent

 

piping

 

is

 

restricted

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

blower

 

cannot

 

freely

 

blow

 

the

 

air

 

out

 

of

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr.

  

This

 

will

 

cause

 

blower

 

back

 

pressure

 

which

 

will

 

force

 

water

 

up

 

the

 

overflow

 

pipe

 

to

 

be

 

released

 

through

 

the

 

breather

 

vent,

 

causing

 

the

 

sensors

 

on

 

the

 

terminal

 

block

 

to

 

detect

 

an

 

overflow

 

of

 

water.

  

Vent

 

piping

 

back

 

pressure

 

can

 

be

 

caused

 

by

 

an

 

obstruction,

 

ice

 

build

up,

 

water

 

trapped

 

in

 

a

 

reverse

 

pitch,

 

excess

 

pipe

 

fittings

 

or

 

pipe

 

length.

 

 

High

Water

 

Alarm

 

A

 

few

 

things

 

can

 

cause

 

the

 

high

water

 

alarm

 

valve

 

control

 

to

 

sound:

 

 

The

 

leak

 

detection

 

terminal

 

block

 

or

 

floor

 

sensor

 

is

 

wet,

 

repair

 

leak

 

and

 

dry

 

off

 

the

 

top

 

of

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

Interactive™.

 

 

Vent

 

line

 

is

 

obstructed,

 

forcing

 

the

 

water

 

up

 

the

 

overflow

 

and

 

triggering

 

the

 

terminal

 

block

 

sensors.

   

Clear

 

obstruction.

 

 

High

 

water

 

alarm

 

float

 

is

 

triggered

 

due

 

to

 

overfilling

 

the

 

main

 

tank

 

of

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

Interactive™.

  

This

 

can

 

be

 

caused

 

by

 

a

 

failed

 

or

 

stuck

 

solenoid,

 

tangled

 

float

 

switch

 

assembly,

 

or

 

a

 

failed

 

float

 

switch

 

assembly.

  

Check

 

to

 

see

 

that

 

solenoid

 

and

 

float

 

switch

 

are

 

working

 

properly

 

and

 

replace

 

if

 

necessary.

this

 

Retrofit

 

Kit.

  

Here

 

are

 

some

 

points

 

to

 

keep

 

in

 

mind

 

when

 

replacing

 

parts:

 

 

Before

 

removing

 

any

 

parts,

 

shut

 

off

 

the

 

water

 

inlet

 

to

 

the

 

Bubble

Up®

 

Jr

 

Interactive™.

 

Set

 

the

 

handles

 

on

 

the

 

bypass

 

valve

 

to

 

the

 

bypass

 

position.

 

 

Always

 

unplug

 

all

 

of

 

the

 

power

 

cords

 

before

 

working

 

on

 

the

 

unit.

 

 

Notice

 

that,

 

inside

 

each

 

end

 

of

 

the

 

blue

 

water

 

tubing

 

there

 

is

 

a

 

stainless

 

steel

 

insert

 

and

 

a

 

plastic

 

ferrule.

 

This

 

is

 

an

 

important

 

part

 

of

 

the

 

connection.

 

You

 

may

 

need

 

to

 

replace

 

this

 

ferrule

 

when

 

you

 

replace

 

one

 

of

 

these

 

connections.
