PUR Faucet Mount Water Filter indicator light does not work

Take it loose from the faucet and flip the lever down on the filter in the on position. Take the cap off and remove the filter. Blow hard through it. You should hear a whirling noise of a gear, like a windmill. If not, I use a water dental pic to pulsate into it and clean it out. This is what makes the light work and when flow goes down, the light changes color. It's all mechanical. No battery. Just free up the gear so it turns freely to work the light. If standing in front of a mirror, you can actually see the light come on. PUR doesn't tell you this because they want you to purchase another one.

My Mirolin bath drain stopper had a spring, which went down the drain when I removed the stopper to clean. Now I'm not sure how the new spring I bought goes back on.

This seems like a system which is proprietary to them, so best to ask their Support staff https://mirolin.com/contact-us/ You could have retrieved the old spring with a flexible magnetic reach tool. https://www.google.ca/search?q=magnetic+pickup+tool https://www.google.com/search?q=Mirolin+bath+drain+stopper ..

Sta-rite mse-7 vertical jet well pump will not prime.

If your Sta-rite vertical mse-7 pump will not prime, there are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:
  1. Check the water level: Make sure the water level in the pool or spa is high enough to reach the skimmer and the pump. Low water levels can cause the pump to lose prime.
  2. Check the skimmer basket: Make sure the skimmer basket is clean and free of debris. A clogged skimmer basket can restrict water flow and prevent the pump from priming.
  3. Check the pump lid O-ring: Make sure the pump lid O-ring is in good condition and properly seated. A damaged or misaligned O-ring can cause air leaks and prevent the pump from priming.
  4. Check the suction plumbing: Check the suction plumbing for leaks, cracks, or other damage. Any air leaks on the suction side of the pump can cause loss of prime.
  5. Check the impeller: If the impeller is damaged or clogged with debris, it can prevent the pump from priming. Remove the pump basket and inspect the impeller for damage or debris. Clean or replace the impeller as needed.
  6. Check the pump seal: If the pump seal is damaged, it can allow air to enter the pump and prevent priming. Inspect the pump seal for damage and replace it if necessary.
If none of these troubleshooting steps resolve the issue, you may need to call a professional pool service technician to diagnose and repair the problem.

The drain pipe is blocked by some rubbish at the elbow ,what can I if cannot drain water?

Depending on how wide the pipe is you need something long, thin and flexible to break up the blockage. You can buy wire drain clearing tools for household drains quite cheaply and larger outdoor drains might need more specialist tools so it is better to pay a specialist to do it for you.

Black water comes from bathroom faucet when turned on for a secound

If black water comes out of the bathroom faucet when you turn it on, it could be an indication of a serious problem with your plumbing system. Here are some steps you can take to address the issue:

Turn off the water supply:
The first step is to turn off the water supply to your home. This will prevent any more black water from coming out of the faucet.
Identify the source of the problem:
The black water could be caused by a number of factors, such as rust in the pipes, sediment buildup, or contamination. It is important to identify the source of the problem before taking any further steps.
Flush the system:
Once you have identified the source of the problem, you can flush the system to remove any sediment or rust buildup. Turn on all of the faucets in your home, including the one that was releasing black water, and let the water run for several minutes. This will help to clear out the pipes and remove any debris.
Call a plumber:
If the problem persists after flushing the system, or if you are unable to identify the source of the problem, it is recommended that you call a licensed plumber. A professional plumber will be able to diagnose the problem and recommend the best course of action to resolve it.
In summary, if black water comes out of your bathroom faucet, it is important to turn off the water supply, identify the source of the problem, flush the system, and call a plumber if necessary.

Ofcourse it’s best to call a professional

Sink faucet has little pressure all others are fine

  1. Check the aerator: The aerator is a small mesh screen located at the end of the faucet spout. Over time, mineral buildup can clog the aerator and reduce water flow. Unscrew the aerator from the spout and clean it with a toothbrush and vinegar or a solution of water and baking soda. Rinse it thoroughly and reattach it.
  2. Check the supply valves: Make sure that the supply valves under the sink are fully open. Turn them off and on a few times to loosen any debris that may be stuck in the valves.
  3. Check the water pressure regulator: If your home has a water pressure regulator, it may be malfunctioning. A faulty regulator can cause low water pressure in certain areas of your home. Contact a plumber to check and replace the regulator if necessary.
  4. Check for leaks: Check for leaks in the pipes under the sink or in the supply line. A leak can reduce water pressure and cause other problems.
  5. Call a plumber: If you have tried these steps and the problem persists, it may be time to call a professional plumber. A plumber can diagnose the problem and recommend the best course of action to restore normal water pressure to your sink faucet.

My ITT Magna pump LD7AC pressure switch will not stay on or keep jets running. Whats the fix?

The ITT Magna pump LD7AC pressure switch is used to control the pressure in a water system. If the pressure switch is not staying on or the jets are not running, it could indicate a problem with the pressure switch or the water system. Here are some potential solutions to try:
  1. Check the air pressure: Make sure that the air pressure in the pressure tank is set correctly. If the air pressure is too low, the switch may not stay on.
  2. Check the pressure switch: Make sure that the pressure switch is properly adjusted and not damaged. The switch should be adjusted to turn on at the correct pressure and turn off at a slightly lower pressure.
  3. Check the water system: Make sure that the water system is not losing pressure. This could be due to a leak in the system or a clogged water filter.
  4. Check the electrical connections: Make sure that the electrical connections are secure and not corroded. Loose or corroded connections can cause the switch to malfunction.
If these solutions do not resolve the issue, it may be necessary to seek professional assistance to diagnose and repair the problem. A qualified technician will be able to diagnose the issue and repair the pump or pressure switch as necessary.
