Possible Causes

Partially blocked filter, Air in plumbing, Weak circulation pump, Partially closed slice valve near Hydropool heater

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power before removing filters or opening unions.

  • Clean or bypass filter: Remove and thoroughly rinse the filter. Run the spa briefly without the filter to see if the dr code clears.
  • Check valves and plumbing: Confirm that all valves are fully open and that there are no visible kinks in flexible hoses.
  • Bleed air: Loosen pump and heater unions to release trapped air, then retighten.
  • Observe circulation: With power restored, verify strong water movement at the circulation return. Weak flow suggests a failing pump that may need replacement.
