Possible Causes

Blocked return line, Closed return valve, Over-sized impeller in Hurlcon pump, Filter multiport valve set incorrectly

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off pump before changing any valve positions.

  • Check filter valve: Ensure the multiport valve is set to FILTER (or the correct mode) and not CLOSED or RECIRCULATE unintentionally.
  • Open valves: Confirm all return valves are fully open and that no isolation valves are accidentally closed.
  • Inspect for obstructions: Check return fittings at the pool for blockages (e.g., toys, leaves).

If 'Hi' persists with normal plumbing, the pump may be incorrectly sized or fitted with the wrong impeller; consult a pool technician.
