TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
CAUSE
A Plug the GFCI into a 3-wire grounded outlet and press the reset button to turn pump on.
B Reset circuit breaker on electrical panel. If problem persists, have an electrician check circuit.
C Check the line voltage, it must be in the range of 105 to 125 AC Volts.
A Fill the pool to the fill line. The suction fitting must be at least 4" under water.
B Check for obstructions(s) at the filter cartridge, suction fitting or return fitting.
C Clean or replace the filter cartridge. See page 12; A spare cartridge makes service more
convenient.
A Maintain chlorine level between 1.0 to 1.6 ppm.
B Maintain pH level between 7.3 to 7.8.
C Clean or replace the filter cartridge. (See page 12). Spare cartridges make service easier.
D Inspect the filter cartridge for holes or tears. If visibly damaged; replace the filter cartridge.
E Check for obstructions(s) at the filter cartridge, suction fitting or return fitting.
F Have the pool water sample tested by a pool supply store. It may be necessary to add other
chemicals due to varying water quality in different localities.
G Chemicals are required to maintain clean pool water. Clean pool and filter more often.
A Make sure hose clamps are positioned properly over the hose and o-ring to ensure a proper
seal. Adjust hose clamp, check o-ring and re-tighten.
Check hose for any holes or cracks and replace if needed.
B Check O-ring
C Check Canister Gasket
D 1) Check the Canister Gasket
2) The Canister Gasket must sit in the groove in the bottom of the canister before
installing the pump.
