Trust Our Experienced Pros to repair your pool heater
A dip in your swimming pool should be an invigorating experience, no matter the season.
However, when your pool heater starts to malfunction, it can leave you with a chill that's hard to shake off. Professionally repairing a pool heater not only restores warmth to your water,
but also adds to the longevity of your pool's heating system.
Gas Pool Heater Repair
To repair a gas pool heater, we follow the steps below.
- Check common Issues: We inspect the power supply, temperature settings, filter, pool pump, and plumbing valves. Common problems include pilot light issues, leaks, dark exhaust, and rust.
- Diagnose Problems: We use a comprehensive guide to diagnose faulty electrical connections, check water flow, and temperature settings.
- Troubleshoot Specific Issues: We look for specific problems related to gas pool heaters, such as ignition failures or gas supply issues, and follow the troubleshooting steps provided.
- Repair or Replace: If the issue persists or is complex, we repair or replace the faulty parts or recommend a new heating system.
Electric Pool Heater Repair
We check your electric pool heater for irregularities:
Your electric pool heater isn't working because of potential issues with the electrical supply, insufficient water flow, a faulty thermostat, or an internal component problem. First, we check that the circuit breaker isn't tripped and the thermostat is set to a high enough temperature. Next, we inspect the pool's water flow by cleaning the filter, checking the pump basket, and ensuring all valves are open. If these steps don't work, it might be an issue with the heater's internal wiring.
- Electrical issues
- Tripped Circuit Breaker:
The most common reason for a pool heater not turning on is a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse.
- Incorrect Power Supply:
Ensure your electric heater is receiving the correct voltage, as a faulty breaker can cause insufficient power.
2. Water Flow Problems
- Clogged Filter:
A dirty or clogged filter is a common cause of low water flow. We clean or replace the filter to improve circulation.
- Dirty Pump Basket:
Debris in the pump basket can also restrict water flow. We empty the basket to allow for proper circulation.
- Malfunctioning Pump:
The pool pump itself might not be running correctly, which would reduce the water flow to the heater.
- Closed Valves:
We make sure all pool valves are fully open to ensure water can flow freely to the heater.
3. Thermostat & Settings
- Incorrect Thermostat Setting:
We verify the thermostat is set to a higher temperature than the current water temperature to activate the heater.
- Faulty Thermostat:
The thermostat itself could be malfunctioning and failing to send the signal to the heater to turn on.
- Short Timer Settings:
If the heater has a timer, we ensure it is set for a sufficient duration for heating the pool.
4. Internal Component Issues
- Heat Exchanger Problems:
A dirty or scaled-up heat exchanger will not be able to transfer heat efficiently.
- Internal Component Failure:
Other internal parts, such as wiring, sensors, or the switch, might be faulty.
