Possible Causes

Pump speed set too low on AquaFlo variable-speed model, Insufficient run time, Bypassed or dirty filter, Incorrect valve positions

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power before changing multiport valve positions.

  • Increase run time: Adjust the AquaFlo controller schedule to run the pump longer each day, especially during heavy use or hot weather.
  • Raise pump speed: On variable-speed models, increase RPM during filtration cycles to improve turnover.
  • Verify valve settings: Ensure the filter multiport valve is set to FILTER and not RECIRCULATE or BYPASS.
  • Service the filter: Backwash or clean cartridges to restore filter efficiency.
