Clogged impeller

 

 

Several things can allow leaves to become lodged in the inside of the pump, broken basket, cleaning the basket inside the trap, or simply to much debris in the pool. When the “veins” of the impeller are clogged, the motor turns, but the inside the pump “water wheel” does not move any water. Easy to repair, simply remove the face plate of the wet end and remove the debris, be careful to clean out all the “veins” of the impeller.
