How to troubleshoot no or low water flow in my AquaStar Water Filtration System?
- A
  Alexandra LiAug 20, 2025
  If your AquaStar Water Filtration System has no or low water flow, there are several potential causes: * **No power to pump:** Ensure the breaker is on and the pump is running. * **PureStar installed backwards:** Check the flow direction arrow on the side of the PureStar. If it's incorrect, reinstall it in the correct direction. * **Pump underpowered:** A small pump might struggle with the PureStar module's flow restriction. Have a pool professional inspect your system to determine if a new pump is required. * **Internal obstruction:** Remove the PureStar Module and inspect the internal water flow path for debris. If obstructions are found, clean and replace the system.

Why is my AquaStar Water Filtration System leaking water?
- B
  Brandi NewtonAug 25, 2025
  If your AquaStar Water Filtration System is leaking water, consider these possibilities: * **Weep hole drainage:** Water naturally weeps out of the bottom; this is normal when the unit has contacted water. * **Weep hole leakage:** If the system is draining water from the weep holes, but the system has not been in contact with an external water source, there may be an internal leak. Contact AquaStar Pool Products Technical Support at (877) 768-2717. * **Union seal failure:** If leakage comes from the unions, remove the PureStar Module, inspect and lubricate the O-rings, and reinstall the module.

  Patrick JensenAug 27, 2025
  If your AquaStar Water Filtration System is making a loud noise during operation: * **By-pass valve obstruction:** Remove the PureStar Module and clean any debris from the bypass valve and spring assembly. * **Electric valve failure:** If the noise continues after cleaning the bypass valve, it is possible the internal electric valve has failed. Contact AquaStar Pool Products Technical Support at (877) 768-2717.

Why does the light stay on and not "Slow Pulse" on my AquaStar Water Filtration System?
- G
  garciatracyAug 28, 2025
  If the light on your AquaStar Water Filtration System stays on and will not "Slow Pulse", the flow conditions are not correct. Follow the steps described in Initial System Start-Up to find a working condition. If no conditions are found, a stronger bypass may be necessary. Contact AquaStar Pool Products Technical Support at (877) 768-2717.

Why does my AquaStar Water Filtration System only operate at low speeds?
- K
  kandersonAug 30, 2025
  If your AquaStar Water Filtration System only operates at low speeds, the system back-pressure is too high for the bypass spring and a stronger spring may be needed. Contact AquaStar Pool Products Technical Support at (877) 768-2717.

  If your AquaStar Water Filtration System shows an 8 Flash Error Code (Switch error), it means the Vacuum Switch senses an edge case flow condition and attempts to open and close. Increase the pump speed or reduce back-pressure. To reset the error, unplug the PureStar, wait 30 seconds, and plug it back in.
