Use the following troubleshooting information to resolve possible problems with your Tagelus
Filter.
THIS FILTER OPERATES UNDER HIGH PRESSURE
When any part of the circulating system, (e.g., closure, pump, filter, valve(s), etc.), is serviced, air can enter the system and become
pressurized. Pressurized air can cause the top closure to separate which can result in severe injury, death, or property damage. To avoid
this potential hazard, follow these instructions:
1. If you are not familiar with your pool filtering system and/or heater:
a. Do NOT attempt to adjust or service without consulting your dealer, or a qualified pool technician.
b. Read the entire Installation & User's Guide before attempting to use, service or adjust the pool filtering system or heater.
2. Before repositioning valve(s) and before beginning the assembly, disassembly, or any other service of the circulating system: (A)
Turn the pump OFF and shut OFF any automatic controls to ensure the system is NOT inadvertently started during the servicing;
(B) open the manual air bleeder valve; (C) wait until all pressure is relieved.
3. Whenever installing the filter closure FOLLOW THE FILTER CLOSURE WARNINGS EXACTLY.
4. Once service on the circulating system is complete FOLLOW INITIAL START-UP INSTRUCTIONS EXACTLY.
5. Maintain circulation system properly. Replace worn or damaged parts immediately, (e.g., closure, pressure gauge, valve(s), o-rings,
etc).
6. Be sure that the filter is properly mounted and positioned according to instructions provided.
Note: Turn off power to unit prior to attempting service or repair.

algae growth.
2. Too frequent a backwash cycle.
3. Improper amount or wrong sand size.
4. Inadequate turnover rate.
1. Insufficient backwashing.
2. Sand bed plugged with mineral deposits.
3. Partially closed valve or restriction in return.
1. Improper backwash.
2. Pool chemistry not adequate to inhibit
algae growth.
3. Plugged sand bed.
4. Flow rate too high.
1. Obstruction in pump hair and lint strainer.
2. Obstruction in pump.
3. Obstruction in suction line to pump.
1. Broken under drain lateral.
2. Backwash rate too high.
3. Air strainer on Tagelus Valve is damaged
or missing.
TROUBLESHOOTING
REMEDY
Maintain pool chemistry or consult pool service technician.
Allow pressure to build to 10 psi above clean filter condition
before backwashing.
Check sand bed depth and sand size or consult a pool
service technician.
Run system for longer time or consult dealer or pool
service technician.
Backwash until effluent runs clear.
Chemically clean filter.
Open valve or remove obstruction in return line.
Backwash until effluent runs clear.
Maintain pool chemistry or consult pool service technician.
Manually remove top 1" surface of sand bed, replace
with new sand and chemically clean entire sand bed as
described in the Chemical Cleaning
Restrict flow to capacity of filter.
Clean basket in pump strainer.
Disassemble and clean pump.
Clean skimmer basket. Remove obstruction in lines.
Open valves in suction line.
Replace broken or damaged laterals.
Reduce backwash flow rate.
Replace damage components.
