The pump is running, but water isn't flowing. Could it be broken?

Yes, there's a high chance the pump could be damaged. When no water flows through, the pump sucks in air, causing the motor to overheat and burn out. If you notice the pump is running without water flow, immediately turn off the breaker or unplug it. With the CARINA automatic water pump, you wont have to worry about this issue. It features a water sensor system that automatically shuts off the pump if it runs dry for more than 1 minute, preventing motor burnout and pump failure.
