How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off the pump before changing valve positions or opening the filter.
- Increase run time: Adjust the AstralPool pump schedule to run longer each day, especially during heavy use or hot weather.
- Optimize speed: On variable-speed models, increase filtration speed to ensure adequate turnover.
- Verify valve positions: Ensure the multiport valve is set to FILTER, not RECIRCULATE or BYPASS.
- Clean filter: Backwash or clean the filter to restore performance.
