How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power and close the water tap.

  • Open tap fully: Ensure the water tap is fully open and supplying water.
  • Inspect hose and filter: Straighten any kinks in the inlet hose and clean the mesh filter at the tap and Aquastop end.
  • Check flow meter: Access the water intake assembly and verify that the flow meter wheel turns freely when water flows. Replace the assembly if stuck or not sending pulses.
  • Re-test: Restore power and run a short cycle to confirm normal filling.
