    How to troubleshoot a STA-RITE IntelliPro Variable Speed Water Pump failure?
    • H
      hadkinsAug 4, 2025
      If your STA-RITE Water Pump experiences a failure, there might be an air leak in the suction. Inspect the suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Make sure the lid on the pump strainer pot is secure and the lid gasket is in place. Check the water level to ensure the skimmer isn't drawing air. Confirm that the suction lines, pump, strainer, and pump volute are full of water. Increase the prime sensitivity setting (the default is 1%). Clean the pump strainer pot and replace the gasket if needed. The cause might also be that there is not enough water.

    What to do if my STA-RITE IntelliPro Variable Speed Water Pump trips and restarts constantly?
    • S
      scott45Aug 9, 2025
      If your STA-RITE Water Pump trips and restarts constantly, first, bleed air from the filter and ensure no air bubbles are entering the pump pot. Then, use a vacuum gauge to check the pump port connection, ensuring the vacuum level is 25 inches of mercury or less. Clear any blockages, reduce the system flow, change the speed, and reduce water flow. For in-floor cleaning systems, ensure they are designed with balanced hydraulic losses on all legs. If priming is not enabled, enable it from the “PRIMING” menu. If issues are related to other equipment, such as Heat Pumps and Heaters with internal valves that vibrate, lowering the ramp speed below 200 RPM or adding external manual valve controls may resolve the issue.

    Why is my STA-RITE IntelliPro Variable Speed making loud noises?
    • D
      Diamond ColeAug 19, 2025
      If your STA-RITE Water Pump experiences mechanical troubles and noise, it could be due to inadequately supported suction and discharge piping, straining the pump assembly. Ensure the pump is securely mounted on a concrete platform, not a wooden one, for quieter performance. Another reason might be foreign matter (gravel, metal, etc.) in the pump impeller. Disassemble the pump, clean the impeller, and follow the pump service instructions for reassembly. Cavitation can also cause noise. Improve suction conditions by increasing pipe size, decreasing the number of fittings, and increasing discharge pressure.

    How to improve inadequate circulation in my STA-RITE IntelliPro Variable Speed?
    • C
      Charles JohnsonAug 25, 2025
      If you're experiencing inadequate circulation with your STA-RITE Water Pump, start by checking the trap basket for clogs; if plugged, turn the pump off and clean the basket. Another cause could be that the suction/discharge piping is too small; in that case, increase the piping size. Also, the speed might be set too slow for proper filtration; increase the filtration run time to resolve this.

    Why is the capacity of my STA-RITE Water Pump reduced?
    • P
      Pamela HicksNov 13, 2025
      If your STA-RITE Water Pump has reduced capacity or head, check for air pockets or leaks in the suction line by inspecting the suction piping and valve glands on any suction gate valves. Turn off electrical power to the pump. Remove the (6) bolts that hold the volute to the seal plate. Slide the motor and seal plate away from the volute. Clean debris from impeller. If debris cannot be removed: 1. Remove diffuser and o-ring. 2. Remove left hand thread anti-spin bolt and o-ring. 3. Remove, clean and reinstall impeller. 4. Reinstall anti-spin bolt and o-ring. Reinstall diffuser, and o-ring. Reinstall motor and seal plate into volute. Reinstall clamp band around seal plate and volute and tighten securely. Also, inspect and clean the suction trap. Another reason might be clogged impeller or pum...

    Why IntelliPro STA-RITE Water Pump does not respond to commands?
    • E
      ejacksonDec 1, 2025
      If your IntelliPro STA-RITE Water Pump does not respond to IntelliTouch, EasyTouch, SunTouch, or IntelliComm commands, first ensure that the communication cable is connected at both ends. Then, check that the IntelliPro local address matches the address used in the IntelliTouch. Also, verify that the IntelliPro has been assigned a circuit name on the IntelliTouch. If the communication network is inoperative, ensure the communication cable is connected at both ends, the IntelliPro local address matches the address used in the IntelliTouch, and the IntelliPro has been assigned a circuit name on the IntelliTouch. Ensure that the IntelliPro display says “DISPLAY NOT ACTIVE”. A defective device on the network can inhibit the proper operation of other network devices; disconnect devices sequenti...
