Aquacomfort
Low Flow at Variable Pump Speeds
Heater shuts off when the pump speed drops to low, even though water is still circulating.

Possible Causes
Pressure/flow switch set too high, Pump low-speed too low for heater, Plumbing layout causing low differential pressure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power before adjusting the pressure or flow switch.
- Review pump programming: Increase the pump’s low-speed RPM during heating cycles to meet Aquacomfort’s minimum flow requirements.
- Adjust pressure switch: Carefully adjust the water pressure switch per the service manual so it closes at the correct flow rate, not excessively high.
- Hydraulic check: Ensure that the heater is plumbed in a way that provides adequate pressure differential (e.g., not on a bypass that eliminates pressure drop).
