Why is my pump running hot?

EXECUTIVE 5 HP 038

This may be caused by insufficient power due to an undersized wire or a poor connection. Check your owner’s manual for proper wiring.

Your local power company might be experiencing a power drop especially  during a heat wave. Restart your pump when the weather cools to confirm  that the problem is really in the motor.

Your pump may have a thermal overload, which will shut the motor off  when it gets too hot. It will restart once it has cooled down. Check the  air intake vents of your motor to ensure they are free of debris. If  debris is blocking these vents, it will cause the motor to run hot and  possibly shut down.

Make sure your pump is located in an area with adequate drainage.  Flooding from rain and other sources could cause a pump to run hot and  cut off.

HOT TUB YOGA

Hydrotherapy increases circulation and warms joints and muscles for mental and physical relaxation. Stretching in the hot tub can be done alone or with a partner. Athletes can benefit from post-exercise stretches in the hot tub because it helps remove lactic acid in muscles, and seniors will feel the easing of stiff joints and tight muscles after practice.

HOW DO I WINTERIZE MY BAQUAPURE PUMP?

8 Mar

To winterize a Baquapure pool pump, turn off the electrical circuit  breaker that supplies power to the pump. Also, make sure that there is  NO water left inside the pump. All Baquapure pumps are equipped with  drain plugs that will allow excess water to drain once the plugs are  removed. Disconnect the pump from the system and after all the water is  drained out, store indoors for the winter. Contact your local pool/spa professional or dealer for proper winterization procedures.

Why did my weir flap break?

5 Mar

The weir flap is a moving part that floats up and down with the level of the water. They are normally held in place with two small plastic tabs. Over time, or under extreme corrosive water conditions, the plastic tabs weaken and break.
The weir for an above ground pool can be replaced easily. The part number is 542-3060 at http://www.waterwayparts.com
