Possible Causes

Long filtration cycles adding pump heat, Dark cover absorbing solar heat, Insufficient cabinet ventilation, High ambient temperatures

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Operational adjustments:

  • Reduce filtration time: Shorten filtration cycles in the control settings to reduce pump-generated heat.
  • Lower set temperature: Temporarily reduce the set temperature a few degrees during hot weather.
  • Vent cabinet: Ensure the equipment bay door is properly vented and not blocked. In extreme cases, add additional ventilation grills per Marquis guidelines.
  • Use cover wisely: Partially open the cover during the hottest part of the day to allow excess heat to escape, ensuring safety barriers are in place.
