Why is my Pentair Water Pump not working?
- C
  Christopher BraunJul 31, 2025
  Your Pentair Water Pump may fail due to several reasons. There might be an air leak in the suction, so check the suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Ensure there's enough water and the skimmer isn't drawing air. Make sure the suction lines, pump, strainer, and pump volute are full of water. Clean the pump strainer pot if the strainer gasket is clogged, or replace the gasket if it's defective.

Why is there inadequate circulation in my Pentair Sta-rite INTELLIPRO?

  Inadequate circulation in your Pentair Water Pump can stem from a few issues. Check the trap basket for blockages; if plugged, turn the pump off and clean the basket. If the suction/discharge piping is too small, increase the piping size. Also, make sure the speed isn't set too slow for proper filtration cycle; increase the filtration run time if needed.

What to do if Pentair Sta-rite INTELLIPRO Water Pump trips and restarts constantly?

  If your Pentair Water Pump is tripping and restarting constantly, several issues could be the cause. First, bleed air from the filter. Check that the suction lift is within design limits, ensuring the vacuum level is 25 inches of mercury (Hg) or less. Stop the pump and clear any blockages if the suction or discharge is blocked. Reduce system flow if it is too high, or change the speed settings. For in-floor cleaning systems, ensure they are designed with balanced hydraulic losses on all legs. Finally, enable priming from the 'PRIMING' menu.

What causes reduced capacity in Pentair Sta-rite INTELLIPRO?
- R
  Roger RogersAug 13, 2025
  Reduced capacity in your Pentair Water Pump can be caused by air pockets or leaks in the suction line, so check the suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. If the suction is blocked, stop the pump and clear the blockage. Reduce system flow if the discharge is blocked, or change the speed if the system flow is too high. Lastly, clean any debris from the impeller if it is clogged.

  An electrical problem with your Pentair Water Pump could manifest as a 'Low Voltage' alarm; in this case, check the voltage at the motor terminals and at the panel while the pump is running. If you see an “Over Heat” alert, consult a licensed electrician. If the motor internal terminal overload protector is open, turn the power to the motor off.

Why is my Pentair Sta-rite INTELLIPRO Water Pump so noisy?
- W
  warnerronaldAug 21, 2025
  Mechanical troubles and noise in your Pentair Water Pump can be due to foreign matter (like gravel or metal) in the pump impeller; disassemble the pump, clean the impeller, and follow the pump service instructions for reassembly. Noise can also be caused by cavitation, so improve suction conditions.

What to do if Pentair Sta-rite INTELLIPRO Water Pump does not respond to system commands?
- T
  Thomas JamesAug 26, 2025
  If your Pentair Water Pump isn't responding to IntelliTouch, EasyTouch, SunTouch, or IntelliComm system commands, it might be due to improper automation setup. Ensure that the communication cable is connected at both ends. If the communication network is inoperative, disconnect devices sequentially until the network starts working.
