Lowara
Under‑Circulation / Incorrect Run Time or Speed
Pump runs but pool circulation is poor and water clarity deteriorates
Advertisements
Possible Causes
Pump speed set too low on variable‑speed Lowara model, Insufficient daily run time, Oversized pool relative to pump, Dirty filter reducing effective flow
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Ensure pump is off before adjusting valves or opening filter.
- Increase speed: On Lowara variable‑speed pumps, increase the programmed filtration speed to improve turnover.
- Extend run time: Adjust the timer so the pump runs long enough to achieve at least one full pool volume turnover per day (often more in heavy use).
- Clean filter: Backwash or clean the filter to restore flow.
- Check hydraulics: Ensure all valves are correctly set for full pool circulation, not bypass or waste.
