Failure to pump
Reduced capacity or discharge pressure

Suction leaks/lost prime:

Pump must be primed; make sure that pump volute and trap are full of water.
Make sure there are no leaks in suction piping.
Make sure suction pipe inlet is well below the water level to prevent pump from sucking air.
If suction trap gasket is defective, replace it.
Suction lift of 15 to 25 feet (4.5 to 7.5 meters) will reduce performance. Suction lift of more than 25 feet (7.5 meters) will prevent pumping and cause pump to lose prime. In either case, move pump closure (vertically) to water source. Make sure suction pipe is large enough.

Clogged pipe/trap/impeller, worn impeller:

Make sure suction trap is not clogged; if it is, clean trap and strainer.
Make sure impeller is not clogged, check impeller for clogging
Impeller and diffuser may be worn. If so, order replacement parts from Repair Parts List
Pump may be trying to push too high a column of water. If so, a “higher head” pump is needed.

Electrical:

Pump may be running too slowly; check voltage at motor terminals and at meter while pump is running. If low, see wiring instructions or consult power company. Check for loose connections.
Pump may be too hot.
- Check line voltage; if less than 90% or more than 110% of rated voltage consult a licensed electrician.
- Increase ventilation.
- Reduce ambient temperature.
- Tighten any loose connections.
