How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Isolate power and allow the system to cool. Some water may escape when venting the pump.

  • Check valves: Ensure all flow and return isolation valves at the furnace are fully open.
  • Vent pump: Remove the pump vent screw and allow air to escape until water appears. Use a screwdriver to gently turn the pump shaft to free it if seized.
  • Clean filters: Isolate and clean any system filters or strainers.
  • Replace pump: If the pump does not run or seizes repeatedly, replace the pump head or complete pump assembly with a Saunier Duval-approved unit.
