PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSES
SOLUTION
1. Pump will not prime.
a. Suction air leak.
b. No water in pump.
c. Closed valves or blocked lines.
d. Low voltage to motor.
Make sure the red filler plug and o-ring are clean and
properly positioned. Tighten red filler plug. Tighten all
pipes and fittings on suction side of the pump. Be sure
water in the pool is high enough to flow through the
jet housing.
Make sure pump housing is full of water.
Open all valves in system. Open pump and check for
clogging of impeller.
Check voltage at motor. If low, pump will not come up
to speed.
2. Motor does not turn.
a. No power to motor.
b. Pump jammed.
Check that all power switches are on. Be sure fuse or
circuit breaker is properly set. Check motor wiring at
terminals.
With power off, turn shaft. It should spin freely. If not,
disassemble and repair.
3. Low flow.
a. No water in pump.
b. Closed valves or blocked lines.
c. Low voltage to motor
See problem 1.
4. Noisy operation of
motor.
a. Bad bearings.
Check for noise when shaft is turned by hand. Motor
will be very hot in bearing area when running. Replace
bearing.
5. Motor runs hot.
These motors will run hot to the touch, however, this is normal. They are designed that
way. Thermal overload protector will function to turn them off if there is an overload or high
temperature problem. Excessive heat can be caused by:
a. Low voltage.
b. Installed in direct sun.
c. Poor ventilation.
Increase size of electrical wire. Be sure motor is
operating on correct voltage.
Shield motor from sun’s rays.
DO NOT block motor ventilation openings.
6. Noisy operation of
pump.
a. Air leak in suction line.
b. Restricted suction line due
to blockage or under size pipe.
Indicated by high vacuum reading
at pump suction.
c. Foreign matter (gravel, metal,
etc.) in pump impeller.
d. Cavitation.
Repair leak. Check suction pipe, red filler plug, and
o-ring (See Problem 1).
Remove blockage or increase suction pipe size. Are all
suction valves fully open?
Disassemble pump and remove foreign matter from
impeller.
Improve suction conditions. (Reduce suction line
length, reduce number of fittings, increase pipe size.)
