This usually means your pump is either not getting power or has a failing capacitor.

• Check the breaker box — pumps often trip the breaker.

• Make sure the timer or automation isn’t off.

• If it hums but doesn’t run, it’s often the motor capacitor.
  ⚠️ If the motor is hot to the touch, turn it off and call your service pro.

• High pressure often means the filter is dirty or clogged — backwash or clean your cartridge.

• Low pressure can mean the pump isn’t primed, there’s a leak in the suction line, or the skimmer basket is clogged.
  ✅ Normal operating range is usually 10–20 psi.

Air in the system usually means there’s a leak on the suction side.

• Check the pump lid O-ring for cracks.

• Make sure the lid is tight.

• Check fittings and the water level in the pool.
  Air can also be caused by a dirty skimmer basket or clogged line.

• Make sure the pump is running and flow is strong.

• Check for error codes on the heater.

• Dirty filters or clogged lines can reduce flow and cause the heater to shut off.

• Some heaters won’t ignite if the water temperature is already close to the set temp.

• Check salt levels — too low or too high can stop production.

• Clean the cell if there’s scale buildup.

• Cold water (below 60°F) can cause cells to shut off automatically.

• Check the cell’s life — some need replacement every 3–5 years.

• This could be a loose connection or a failing bulb.

• If water gets into the light housing, the fixture may need to be replaced.

• Always shut off power at the breaker before troubleshooting

• Check for tripped breakers or power outages.

• Reset the control panel.

• If some functions work and others don’t, it may be a relay or programming issue.

• Software updates or re-syncing can often fix glitches.

• Most leaks happen at joints, unions, or pump seals.

• Tighten fittings carefully — overtightening can make it worse.

• Check for worn or cracked gaskets.
  If it’s underground or persistent, a professional leak detection may be needed.

• High debris loads, algae, or chemical imbalance can cause this.

• Clean or replace media (sand, DE, or cartridge) as needed.

• If the issue happens too fast, check circulation and vacuum for blockages.

• Likely caused by overheating, electrical issues, or a bad motor.

• Check airflow around the pump and make sure the motor isn’t covered.

• If it keeps tripping, call an electrician or pool tech.
