  If your NOVO Water Filtration System isn't starting its regeneration cycle, it could be due to a few reasons. First, check the electrical service, fuse, and other power-related components to ensure the unit is receiving power. A defective circuit board could also be the cause, requiring replacement of the faulty parts. Lastly, a power failure might have occurred; if so, simply reset the time of day on the unit.

  Continuous flow to the drain in your NOVO Water Filtration System can be caused by several issues. Begin by verifying that the valve settings are correct. Foreign material lodged in the control valve could also be responsible, so clean the control thoroughly. Finally, an internal leak might be the cause; in this case, replace the seals, spacers, and piston assembly.

How to increase water pressure in NOVO Clear 485 Water Filtration Systems?
- A
  Andrea JacobsAug 15, 2025
  Low water pressure in your NOVO Water Filtration System can stem from a few issues. Iron or scale buildup in the line feeding the unit might be the cause, so cleaning the pipes is recommended. Alternatively, iron buildup inside the valve or tank could be the problem; clean the control and add resin cleaner to clean the bed, and consider increasing regeneration frequency. Lastly, the inlet of the control might be plugged due to foreign material; remove the piston and clean the control valve to resolve this.

- M
  Matthew BooneAug 19, 2025
  Filter media appearing in the drain line of your NOVO Water Filtration System can be attributed to a couple of reasons. First, check the well system for proper air eliminator control, as air in the water system can cause this issue. Additionally, an incorrect drain line flow control (DLFC) button might be the culprit, so verify that it's set for the proper flow rate.

Why does my NOVO Water Filtration System bleed taste and odor?
- J
  James GarciaNov 4, 2025
  If your NOVO Water Filtration System is bleeding taste, odor, or sediment, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the bypass valve is closed. Check that the unit has continuous electrical service by verifying the fuse, plug, and switch. The media bed might be defective or stripped, requiring replacement. A change in water quality may also be the culprit, so have a sample analyzed. The filter capacity might be insufficient, suggesting a replacement with a larger unit or the addition of another filter. Ensure the filter is backwashing adequately by checking for clogs in the control or restrictions in the drain line, and confirm that the water pressure and pump capacity are sufficient. Finally, inspect for leaks between the valve and central tube, checking for cracks or damage to the...
