How to fix low water pressure in AQUATECH CAN165BM-100?
- C
  Caroline SteinAug 21, 2025
  If you're experiencing low water pressure with your AQUATECH Water Filtration Systems, there are a few potential causes. There might be iron or scale buildup in the line feeding the unit, so cleaning the pipes is recommended. Iron buildup inside the valve or tank could also be the problem; clean the control and add resin cleaner to clean the bed, contacting your dealer for instructions. Additionally, the inlet of the control could be plugged due to foreign material; remove the piston and clean the control valve.

  Excessive pressure loss through the AQUATECH Water Filtration Systems filter can occur for several reasons. The filter bed might be overloaded with precipitated iron. Also, ensure the control inlet/outlet valve(s) are fully open. Sand, silt, or mud collecting in the filter bed can also cause this issue, so check the well for these conditions. Lastly, the filter bed may not be properly classified; manually backwash to reclassify it.

Why is the water from AQUATECH CAN165BM-100 milky or bubbly?
- S
  Scott LarsonAug 27, 2025
  Milky or bubbly water from AQUATECH Water Filtration Systems, appearing to contain small bubbles, can be caused by a couple of factors. It could be due to excess air injector air draw; check the adjustment for a duration of draw in excess of 1/3 pumping cycle. Alternatively, it may be caused by excess gases in the water, such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen sulfide, or methane; you may require draining of the water system or installation of air relief control, so contact your dealer.

Why is the water red when drawn from the tap with AQUATECH CAN165BM-100 Water Filtration Systems?
- J
  Julia PriceNov 13, 2025
  If the water is red when drawn from the tap with AQUATECH Water Filtration Systems, it could be due to several reasons. The filter bed might be overloaded with precipitated iron because of an insufficient backwash flow rate. You should recheck the well pumping rate and repair or replace it if needed. Also, check for obstructions or kinks in the drain line and ensure the drain line flow controller meets specifications. If manually backwashing doesn't clear the iron, the filter bed may need chemical cleaning, so contact your dealer. Another cause might be the air injector drawing too much air, leading to early precipitation of iron; in this case, reduce the air injector air draw time. Furthermore, the air injector might be installed too far from the pressure tank, or the pressure tank too fa...

Why does water from AQUATECH CAN165BM-100 Water Filtration Systems turn red after standing?
- J
  John NewmanNov 16, 2025
  If the water from AQUATECH Water Filtration Systems is clear when drawn but turns red upon standing, it could be due to several issues. It may be caused by insufficient air drawn by the air injector, so check the air injector adjustment and pumping rate. A bypass might be open or leaking, requiring closure or repair. The filter bed could be overloaded with precipitated iron due to insufficient backwash; increase backwash frequency and manually backwash until the water starts to clear. In severe cases, chemical cleaning may be needed—contact your dealer. The presence of manganese or tannins may also be a factor; recheck the water analysis. The flow rate might be excessive for the model; reread 'Facts to Remember While Planning Your Installation'. A check valve located between the air inject...
