Your pool pump is comprised of many smaller parts. Like any other part of your pool, it is important to perform regular general maintenance on your pool pump to avoid an untimely and costly repair. Before any general maintenance is done on your pool pump or any other part, we will discuss it with you for your approval.

Pool pump repair does not have to be a long, drawn-out process. Smaller parts within the actual pump are lubricated and maintained during regular service visits. A few of the obvious signs that your pool pump needs repair are a leaking pump, air in the pump basket, not pumping water like usual, the pump motor making a lot of noise, etc.

• Helps keep water circulating
• A working pump helps prevent algae
• The pump should work quietly
• No air bubbles should come through return fittings

One of the main parts, the motor, will usually last about eight years. Pool pump repair can be done in as little as an hour, depending on the part needing the repair. It is important to keep the valves open in order to ensure proper water flow into your pump. You will also want to keep the pump basket clear of any debris as well. The last thing you want is for your pool pump to go out completely. As there are usually signs long before this happens, if it does come to the pump completely shutting down, then you have more than likely waited too long for just general maintenance. This can be a sign that you are in need of a total pool pump repair.
