What to do if Pentair ULTRATEMP 70 shows LOW WATER FLOW alarm?
- CChristian JonesAug 5, 2025
If your Pentair Heat Pump displays a LOW WATER FLOW alarm, it means the pressure switch isn't sensing water flow. Here's what you should check: * First, ensure your water circulation pump is running. * Second, check for sufficient water flow by cleaning dirty or worn filters and clogged lint traps. Backwash if needed, or replace the filter element. Inspect and clean the pump impeller. Adjust plumbing valves and repair any suction air leaks. * Third, make sure any external water bypass around the heat pump is closed. * Finally, with water flowing, check the resistance of the water pressure switch; if it's open, replace the switch.
