less, it may be necessary to increase flow to compensate for the
reduced flexibility of the hose and diaphragm.
- Check diaphragm for
damage or wear.
- Backwash filter and
empty pump basket.
- Check for air in
system. If water level in pump basket drops, check hose connections,
tighten all fittings at pump, check gasket in pump basket for wear.
