Is It Time to Replace Your Pump?

Pumps can and will eventually wear out—the components they depend on eventually fall apart, seals eventually need to be replaced, and motors and other important parts will eventually stop working. While repairing your pump can get it working again, sometimes you are simply only delaying the inevitable, and thus it’s a better investment to replace the system entirely.

It might be time to replace your pool pump if any of the following are true:

• Your pump is constantly losing suction
• Your pump needs at least one major repair per year
• Your pump is more than 7 years old
• Your pump has grown increasingly noisy over the years
• Your pump emits strange smells
• You have a single-speed pump

Energy-efficient variable speed pumps offer numerous benefits, including massive energy savings, flexible programming, enhanced filtration and chemical efficacy, longer warranties, and whisper-quiet operation. These pumps are the industry gold standard, meeting Department of Energy regulations that took effect in July 2021, which now require them to meet strict energy-efficiency standards. By switching to a variable speed pump, you can save up to 70% on energy costs—a figure you can see for yourself using Jandy’s pool pump savings calculator. Say goodbye to exorbitant energy bills and inefficient filtration. Let the professionals at Patriot Pool & Spa optimize your system today for peak performance and significant savings.

Don’t suffer cloudy or lukewarm swimming water again! Filters play a vital role in keeping your pool water clean, clear, and properly sanitized. As water circulates through your filter, the media or material inside the filter screens out dirt and debris from returning to your pool, thus providing clean and clear swimming pool water. The three main types of residential filters in use today are: Sand, DE (Diatomaceous earth), and Cartridge. Depending on the type of filter your system employs your pool might not be functioning at its peak optimization. Let the pool professionals at Patriot Pool & Spa perform a filter inspection today and make sure you have the appropriate filter installed for peak swimming pool performance.

There is nothing worse than getting ready to fire up your heater to enjoy a nice relaxing session in your spa and an error message flashes across the display. This happens far too often because pool and spa heaters are not routinely inspected for system optimization or scheduled for routine maintenance. At Patriot Pool & Spa we know the importance of a properly maintained and system specific high-efficiency heater. Our skilled and knowledgeable Service Repair Technicians can make sure your pool/spa is equipped with the correct heating unit so that your swimming experience is enjoyed at exactly the water temperature you desire.
