Sometimes it’s hard to notice the signs that your pool heater needs repairs before the issue gets really bad. Keep an eye out for these issues and call a professional as soon as you notice the problem–don’t wait for it to get worse!
Inconsistent Temperature
Have you noticed the temperature of the water in your pool changing even though you haven’t adjusted the thermostat? This often happens when there is a problem with the heating cycles. There are a number of things that can cause this. Have a professional inspect your pool heater to determine what repairs need to be done.
Unusual Noises
It is normal for pool heaters to make some noise when they are running, but if your heater starts making unusual sounds that you haven’t heard it make before, such as banging or whistling, pay attention. This is a sign that your heater is not working properly and needs some maintenance.
Inaccurate Thermostat
Are the actual temperature of your pool and the reading on the thermostat not telling you the same thing? If your thermostat doesn’t seem to be displaying an accurate temperature, you may need to have your thermostat repaired or replaced.
Heater Shuts Down Unexpectedly
Does your pool heater suddenly just stop running out of nowhere? This is the most obvious (and frustrating) sign that your pool heater has a problem that needs fixing. If you notice your heater unexpectedly turning off frequently, don’t wait for it to stop working altogether. Call a technician right away.
