Possible Causes
Worn rotor seals, Debris on valve seats, Damaged drain valve, Improper valve indexing
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit and close inlet/outlet valves before valve service.
- Confirm seepage: With no water use, observe the drain hose for intermittent drips. Any continuous flow indicates internal leakage.
- Clean valve seats: Remove the control head and inspect the rotor and seal pack. Clean any debris from valve seats.
- Replace seals: Install a new rotor and seal kit designed for your Aquabion model.
- Verify indexing: Ensure the cam and gears are correctly aligned so the valve fully closes the drain port in service position.
Warning: Internal valve repairs require careful reassembly; incorrect assembly can cause major leaks.
