Not sure if this is somehow related to the water being heated or maybe air in the pump just guesses. Any suggestions? If you can remove the handle, you can apply shaving cream and run the pump to see if it gets sucked in put cream around the stem and on both joints in/out of the valve. Air can also be drawn into the pump from leaky suction side valves (skimmer or main drain). Just replaced the sand and cleaned the fingers, replaced the o rings and have a psi of 15 and great suction. Is the wire the correct size wire? outlet still on. "url": "https://blog.intheswim.com/"

Hayward Pool Pump Troubleshooting - In The Swim Pool Blog You can check the visual motor check (if you have an intermatic clock), to see if the motor gears are turning, which means the timeclock motor is good and the power from the breaker is good. Not sure power goes to the pump. Well the electrician said it was a bad motor and to contact hayward to replace. If you have power coming into the motor, but no pump noise, check (Power off) that wire connections are tight, and inspect the wire for breaks or damage. I recently noticed what appears to be a shaft seal leak. Your 1 hp Hayward Superpump can pump 75 gallons per minute, which is too much flow for most AG pool filters. I let it cooled down tho the temp was only 90 at that time. Hi Josh, that sounds like the Display board, a circuit board that controls the display. Please let me know what can be done if anything we may be calling for info. There are some pumps that will draw air in thru a faulty shaft seal, which will leak water, dripping below the pump, when the pump shuts off. After Irma came through, we were without power for a week, the pump wont run on low speed and when it runs at high speed, it overheats after about an hour and shuts off. Wouldnt, the other three still be sufficient to filter? Or to a light switch and then to a breaker, that would be more of a standard installation. Second be sure that you are delivering 230V (+/- 10%) and that the motor is set to accept 230V (some are reversible to accept 115V too). 24V after the transformer is present. Backwash your filter when pressure gauge rises 7-9 psi above the clean, starting pressure. "@type": "BlogPosting",
The process, for changing a hayward pump seal is: 1. Hi Dave, the square gasket for the lid, can sometimes come out of the groove on a Superpump, Id check that first, and make sure the lid is very tight. started having the problem There was alot of debris once I removed the assemblies and some water below wiring. Use the [7/16] wrench to wiggle the shaft through several revolutionsto free up the shaft. Usually however, a howling or moaning sound from the pool heater, is low water flow. See below for more detail. Hi my spa empties into the pool when the spa is turned on. It runs fine but no strong circulation. Like it is getting through the shaft seal but the seal is brand new.. any thoughts? So, it could be a problem with the cord, or the connection on the other end of the cord, likely if the motor is making no noise at all. Hi, Is it possible pump too small for AV60 filter? If it slowly rises your capacitor is capable of holding a charge. If they wont or cant fix it, call a electric motor repair shop to visit, or pull the pump and take it to them for service, or attempt the (easy) repair yourself. I can see the water trickling in to the filter after a while, and the output becomes very limited. 99% of the time its no problem 1% of the time something could burst, usually a plumbing fitting, a bad glue joint or clamped fitting. Is this the problem and should I get i checked or just replace it? What can be the cause? Hi Tommy, very loud pump could be that the pump overheated, because it lost prime, and this either damaged the shaft bearings or melted/warped the impeller and diffuser. When I then switch the pump breaker off and then back on again it springs into life (every time). Attached please find a copy of the Aqua Plus Operation Manual Please note Section - Configuration Menu Items, Cell Type Selection, page 16. The higher the pump is elevated above the water level, the more struggles this can cause. There is water under the motor not sure from where. For over 2 months, lots of troubleshooting, actually RE-PIPED THE SECTION FROM POOL TO PUMP done by professionalpump still will not primedraws water, wont primeplayed with outflow and values, no primetook apart (my nemesis) Hayward Perflex DE filter, cleaned fingers, silicone on gaskets, put back (I have done this crappy job a hundred times so I am familiar with the process)no primefeel like draining the damn pool and junking the whole thing >:(. Just replaced our pool pump, Hayward 1 hp self priming, super pump. Your options are to 1). Hi there, 30 psi is pretty high pressure, sounds like the pump is having trouble pushing thru are you using enough DE powder? If you see an increase in pump pressure, ensure that there is no blockage preventing the flow. Or spray with shaving cream (yes! I opened my pool this weekend and started the pump and let it run for few hours before stopping it. The following steps will provide a guide on how to recalibrate a Hayward Aqua Rite. Check the incoming voltage to be sure that you are within the range of 110V-125V. Possibly an obstruction on the return line, after the filter? Thanks, good question. Hi Brian, is this a DE filter? So I installed a brand new Hayward W3SP2610X15 Super Pump Pool Pump, 1.5 HP last season Summer 2019 and used the electric cord from the old one which was showing its age.

Tripping the breaker, could possibly be a bad breaker, allowing too much voltage to pass thru to the pump. Question my Aquaririte is 3 years old. Replaced motor and seal on my Hayward Northstar. Mine just did the same. If the pump plugs into an outlet, I would check the GFCI button to be sure the outlet has not popped or tripped. Third time turned off pump same thing happened with humming and eventually kicking in. Would Hayward do anything for me? Gauge was reading between 6 and 8 on filter container at this time. I took off the cover to see the circuit board and all looks ok but then it started coming on and off randomly while I was standing there. None of the indicating lights are on. Sparking can also come directly from a short in the windings of the motor. Hi Dave, we are replacing a Hayward superpump 1.5 horsepower with the same pump. It could be air in the pump, or it could be that the pump is too big (powerful) for the number of pipes. i cleaned the filter put the cover back on turned the pump but it doesnt seem to be priming . No need to look for a solution after the impeller, its always before, on the suction side. i have a 4 wire set up, ground, line , low speed,high , just want to make sure i wire correctly, 1- line 1, 2- high speed, 3or4 to low speed? Motor air flow path should be checked. The same thing happened to the first one. If so, you may try to glue them in place with JB Weld or similar, and if that doesnt work, a new housing would be in order. So I inspected the wiring into the electrical panel. Hi David, spilling water on the motor is no problem, they do fine outside in the rain (flooding is a different story) Have you checked the GFCI test button on the outlet? "author": {
UNK the , . A lb of DE is by volume, equal to a 1 lb coffee can, or about 4 cups of dry measure. It did not do this until we pressure washer the deck and some wood chips got into the pool. If your salt system is hardwired, variations in voltage could cause the controller to go a little haywire. Hi Chuong, the Leslies RS750CA is the same as the Hayward Super II pump, which are $500-$600. Look closely for any visible damage in the rear of the motor, anything loose, disconnected, chewed, melted, broken, burnt or cracked. 6. inspect conduit and wires going from timer to pump, look for water in the conduit, or broken conduit, or rodent damage to wires. Hi Marshall, check that the water level is good, and skimmer weirs are not stuck, blocking water flow into the skimmer, both cases cause the skimmer to suck air, which cause the pump to lose prime. When turned on, it clicks in and off every few seconds. Relays are usually small cubes, about 1 square, sometimes black, sometimes clear, mounted on a circuit board. But this pump smokes when I try to turn it on (guessing motor burned out from being submerged). You will get much more visibility by.
