Jandy™ Pumps
6. Prior to replacing the lid, check for debris
around the lid o-ring seat, as this will cause air
leaks into the system. Clean the lid o-ring and
place on the lid.
7. Hand tighten the lid to make an air tight seal. Do
not use any tools to tighten the lid, hand
tighten only.
8. Verify that all valves have been returned to the
proper position for pumping.
9. Open the pressure release valve on the filter, and
make sure it is clean and ready for operation.
10. Turn on the power to the pump. Once all the air
has been evacuated from the filter, close the
pressure release valve.
7B. Winterizing the Pump
1. When freezing temperatures are expected, the
Jandy™Pump must be protected. Allowing the
pump to freeze will cause severe damage and
void the warranty.
2. Do not use antifreeze solutions in the pool, spa,
or hot tub systems! Antifreeze is highly toxic
and may damage the circulation system. The
only exception to this is Propylene Glycol. For
more information see your local pool/spa supply
store or ask a qualified swimming pool service
company.
3. Drain all water from the pump, system
equipment, and piping.
4. The pump has two drain plugs that may be
removed with a wrench. Do not use a
screwdriver to remove or install the drain plugs.
5. Store the drain plugs in a safe location and
reinstall them when the cold weather is over.
Use a silicone sealant and wrench to tighten the
drain plugs.
6. Keep the motor covered and dry. Note:
Covering the pump with plastic will create
condensation and this moisture will damage the
pump. The best way to protect your pump is to
have a qualified service technician or
electrician properly disconnect the electrical
wiring at the switch or junction box. Once the
power is removed, the two unions can be
loosened and the pump stored indoors. For
safety, and to prevent entry of contaminants,
reinstall all conduit and terminal box covers.
7. When the system is reopened for operation,
make sure all piping, valves, wiring, and
equipment are in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendations. Pay close
attention to the filter and electrical connections.
8. The pump must be primed prior to starting, in
accordance with the "Start-up" instructions
(Section 6) contained in this manual.
SECTION 8.
Troubleshooting
8A. Troubleshooting
1. Water Pik Technologies, Inc. recommends that
you call a qualified service technician to
perform any repairs on the filter/pump system.
For technical service call 707-776-8200, ext.
260.
2. The cleaning/circulating system is not working
as well as in the past.
a. Are the skimmer baskets, pump basket and
other screens clean?
b. Has the filter been cleaned recently?
c. Are all the valves adjusted correctly? Too
much equipment on at one time will stop
many cleaners from working (waterfalls, spa
jets, surface returns, etc.).
d. Have you checked the cleaning system
manual to make sure it is adjusted according
to the manufacturer's recommendations.
3. Are there bubbles present in the pump basket?
a. Check the pool or spa water level to make
sure it is at the proper level and that air is not
being drawn into the suction piping. If the
water is normal, continue with the next step.
b. Turn off the pump. Remove the lid. Check
for debris around the lid o-ring seat, as this
will cause air leaks into the system. Clean
the lid o-ring and place on the lid. Hand
tighten the lid to make an air tight seal. Do
NOT use any tools to tighten the lid. Turn on
the pump.
