=== Flow Adjustment ===


The pump flow is adjusted via the butterfly valve on the output side of the pump.  The flow rate must be periodically adjusted via this valve as debris in the strainer basket and sand filters provides additional resistance.
Prior to the spring of 2022, pump flow was manually adjusted via the butterfly valve on the output side of the pump.  


In the future, a VFD may be used to reduce the motor speed, eliminating the need for manual adjustment via a valve.
Flow adjustment will be automatic with the VFD (details to follow).
