Bleeding the cartridge filter pump

If there is a lot of air in the filtration or filter circuit, the water flow will reduce and the filtration will make a rattling sound. It may even stop working completely. The air needs to be bled in order for the filtration to work properly again. Follow the steps below:

Step 1:

Turn off the filtration.

Step 2:

Turn the bleeder valve on top of the filter cover counterclockwise. (Figure 1)

Step 3:

The air should start exiting through the valve.

Step 4:

Once the water starts exit the valve, close the valve by turning it clockwise. (Figures 2 and 3)

Step 5:

The filtration has now been properly bled and can be turned on again.

Older type of cartridge filter systems

The bleeding process is identical with new cartridge filter systems.
