pump HP?
« on: December 12, 2010, 09:05:07 PM »

Just curious if there is supposed to be a standard size pump for the 6048.  After mine got hooked up, I noticed 2 pumps were 1/8HP and 1 was 1/25 HP.  The 1/25 HP is getting the water to the hx and then to the coil, but not getting thru the coil.  In fact air is in the return line leaving the coil.  I back flushed all the air out with garden hose to try and re-prime it but the air came back??  Could it be there is a small hole in the coil letting air in somehow?

ANy help appreciated!!

Ok, Thanks rosewood.  I will check that.  And let you know.  My dealer is coming Wed, and I'm gonna let him troubleshoot it.
