If your Certikin Water Pump motor isn't running, first ensure that all electrical switches are turned on to provide power to the motor. If the power is on, the pump might be jammed. Turn off the power and try to spin the pump shaft. If it doesn't spin freely, contact your supplier.
What to do if my Certikin Aquaspeed has low flow?
If you're experiencing low flow with your Certikin Water Pump, the filter, skimmer, or pump strainer might be dirty. Backwash the filter or clean the cartridge, and clean the skimmer and pump strainer. Also, check for suction air leaks or closed/blocked lines; ensure the water level is correct through the suction points and open all valves.
Why is my Certikin Aquaspeed making noise?
Noisy operation of your Certikin Water Pump can stem from several causes. It could be due to a worn bearing, in which case you should have an electrician replace it. An air leak in the suction line can also cause noise; try to improve the suction. Check for and clear any suction blockages. Foreign matter in the impeller can also lead to noise; dismantle the pump and remove any debris. Cavitation can also cause noisy operation; reduce suction lift, the number of fittings, increase pipe size, increase discharge pressure and reduce flow by throttling the discharge valve.
What causes Certikin Aquaspeed motor to run hot?
If your Certikin Water Pump motor runs hot, it might be due to low or incorrect voltage, which should be corrected by an electrician. If the pump is installed in direct sunlight, shield it from the weather. Poor ventilation can also cause overheating; ensure the pump motor cooling fan has a minimum clearance of 150mm.
What to do if Certikin Water Pump motor overload cuts out?
If the Certikin Water Pump motor overload cuts out, it could be due to improper motor connections. Have an electrician check the wiring. Low incoming voltage could also be the cause; have an electrician check the voltage and ensure the pump isn't running on an extension cord. Overload due to binding in the pump or an incorrectly sized impeller can also cause this issue; contact your supplier.
