  Benjamin WilliamsAug 21, 2025
  If you're experiencing low flow in your Hayward Water Pump, the following steps can be taken: - Plugged or restricted discharge line of filter, valve partially closed (high gauge reading). Sand filters – backwash as per manufacturer’s instructions; D.E. filters – backwash as per manufacturer’s instructions; Cartridge filters – clean or replace the cartridge. - Air leak in suction (bubbles issuing from return fittings). Re-tighten the suction and discharge connections using Teflon tape. Inspect other plumbing connections, and tighten as required. - Plugged, restricted, or damaged impeller. Replace the impeller including a new seal assembly. - Correct the piping size.
