Common Pool Heater Complications
Pool heaters can malfunction for a variety of reasons. Any pool heater repair should be handled by skilled and certified pool repair technicians.

Here’s a list of some of the most common heated pool complications we’ve encountered:
What Are the Different Types of Pool Heaters?
In addition to extending the swimming season with a pool heater, the type of heater you pick will determine what maintenance and repairs you’ll have to perform. Pool heaters are chosen depending on the frequency of use and the size of the area that needs to be heated. Here is a breakdown of the different types and benefits of pool heaters:
How to Get the Most Out of Your Pool Heater
The lifespan of a pool heater can range from 10 to 25 years, depending on its type, maintenance, and routine service. Besides prolonging the life of your pool heater, you can also do the following:
Check Your Water’s Balance
We recommend checking your water’s chemical balance monthly to ensure your pool heater’s exchanger and internal components are not calcified or eroded.Maintain Proper Water Flow
Checking your filter is an absolute must. Backwashing or rinsing your filter every time your heater’s pressure gauge gets high will ensure proper water flow. Not checking your filter can lead to several issues, such as power cycling, strange noises, or refusal to turn on.Routine Pool Heater Maintenance
Having your pool heater repaired and serviced routinely will significantly prolong your pool heater’s life. We recommend having one of our technicians come out at least twice a year. Once when you first open your pool for summer, and the other right before you fully cover your pool for the winter.

Tips for Handling Pool Heater Repairs
Multiple factors can lead to the failure of your pool heater. We recommend contacting our technicians to troubleshoot the issue, but there are a few things the average homeowner can do. Sometimes, problems that appear to be related to the pool heater are not. Here are some simple troubleshooting tips to help you figure out what’s causing the issue:
Inspect Your Filter
A dirty filter can stop your pool heater from working as intended causing multiple complications such as strange noises or even failure to turn on.
Check Your Fittings
Ensuring your fittings are tight and snug is vital as your heater requires steady water pressure and a good seal to maintain performance.
Heat Exchanger Issues
Similar to the water heater in your home, the anodes can become corroded or be covered in a layer of lime. To help stop this, checking and balancing the chemicals in your pool is recommended.
Check Your Pressure Sensor
A bad pressure sensor can ensure your pool heater will sense that there is no water in the pool and automatically switch off the pump.
