Pool Equipment Repair

Equipment failures affect overall pool care. A broken salt system means manually adding chlorine daily. A dead robotic cleaner means we spend more time vacuuming manually. Failed chemical feeders require constant chemistry monitoring and adjustment. We coordinate equipment repairs with cleaning schedules to maintain water quality while fixing problems.

Weatherford’s hard water accelerates salt system failures. High calcium levels scale cells faster, clog flow switches, and damage sensors. We clean and maintain salt equipment more frequently here than in soft water areas, which extends equipment life and prevents failures.

Robotic pool cleaners fail from worn drive tracks, clogged filters, tangled cables, failed motors, and control board problems. We repair drive mechanisms, replace worn brushes and tracks, fix cable swivel issues, and diagnose electrical failures. Many robotic cleaner problems are simple fixes—cleaning debris from wheels or resetting a tripped thermal switch—but require taking the unit apart to access.

Suction-side cleaners attach to your skimmer or dedicated suction line and use pump power to move around. These fail when diaphragms tear, wheels wear out, or hoses develop leaks. Repairs are usually simple part replacements, but diagnosis requires understanding how the cleaner uses water flow and vacuum to operate. A cleaner that doesn’t move might have a clogged line, worn wheels, or insufficient pump flow—we test systematically to identify the actual problem.

Pressure-side cleaners use dedicated booster pumps to power movement and sweep debris into attached bags. Booster pumps fail like regular pool pumps—bad seals, worn bearings, failed capacitors. The cleaners themselves have backup valves that stick, wheels that crack, and bags that tear. We repair both the booster pump and the cleaner unit, ensuring the entire system works together properly.

Automatic chemical feeders dose chlorine or other chemicals based on timers or sensor input. Feeders fail when tubes crack from chemical exposure, pumps lose prime, check valves stick, and sensors drift out of calibration. We replace deteriorated tubing, repair peristaltic pumps, clean or replace check valves, and recalibrate sensors to restore accurate dosing.

ORP and pH controllers automatically test water and dose chemicals to maintain setpoints. These systems fail when probes wear out, pumps malfunction, or control boards glitch. Probe replacement is routine maintenance—they last six months to two years depending on use. Control board failures require replacement or sometimes repair of specific components like relays or power supplies.

Water levelers automatically add water when levels drop from evaporation or splash-out. They fail when float valves stick, solenoid valves don’t open or close properly, or supply lines clog. A leveler that won’t shut off floods your pool and wastes water. One that won’t turn on lets your pool level drop dangerously low. We repair valves, replace failed solenoids, and adjust float settings to maintain proper levels.

Ozone generators and UV sanitizers supplement chlorine with additional sanitization. These systems fail when bulbs burn out, power supplies quit, or flow sensors don’t detect water movement. UV bulb replacement is annual maintenance. Ozone generator repairs often involve replacing the corona discharge cell or power supply components.

Deck jets, bubblers, and water features have dedicated equipment that fails independently from main pool systems. Valve actuators stick. Small pumps seize. Control circuits malfunction. We repair feature-specific equipment and integrate repairs with overall pool system operation.

Heat pumps for pool and spa heating have compressors, fans, heat exchangers, and control boards that all fail independently. Compressor failures require complete unit replacement. Fan motors are replaceable. Control boards can sometimes be repaired. We diagnose heat pump problems accurately and recommend repair or replacement based on equipment age and failure type.

Saltwater chlorine generators from different manufacturers—Hayward, Pentair, Jandy—have different error codes, cell designs, and troubleshooting procedures. We work on all major brands and keep troubleshooting guides and common parts in stock. Brand-specific expertise matters because what fixes a Hayward problem might not apply to a Pentair system.

Variable-speed pump programming and troubleshooting requires understanding pump controls and integration with automation systems. Pumps that won’t change speeds, lose programming after power outages, or show error codes need diagnosis beyond basic pump repair. We program variable-speed schedules, fix communication issues with automation, and repair control problems specific to these advanced pumps.

Automation system equipment includes valve actuators, relay boards, wireless antennas, and touchscreen interfaces. Actuators fail when motors burn out or gears strip. Relay boards fail from power surges or age. Wireless communication drops from interference or failed antennas. We repair automation components and restore full system functionality.

Some equipment is obsolete and parts are unavailable. Manufacturers discontinue products and stop supporting them after 10 to 15 years. We work with aftermarket parts when available, retrofit modern equivalents, or recommend replacement with current technology when repair isn’t feasible.

Warranty coverage varies by manufacturer and component. We handle warranty claims for equipment we’ve installed, coordinating with manufacturers and following their procedures. Warranty repairs save money but require proper documentation and authorized service.

Preventive equipment maintenance catches failures before they happen. Cleaning salt cells quarterly, inspecting cleaner components monthly, testing chemical feeder accuracy regularly, and monitoring system performance all prevent unexpected breakdowns during peak season.

Equipment upgrades during repairs sometimes make sense. If your 10-year-old basic salt system fails, upgrading to a model with better diagnostics and longer warranties might cost only slightly more than repairing the old one. We present options and let you decide what fits your situation.

Emergency equipment repairs happen when failures prevent pool operation or create safety hazards. A water leveler flooding your equipment pad needs immediate attention. A chemical feeder overdosing chlorine creates dangerous water conditions. We prioritize emergencies and respond quickly to prevent damage and restore safety.

We serve Parker County families who need specialized pool equipment repaired by people who actually understand how it works. Whether you’re in Weatherford, Aledo, Brock, or nearby areas, we bring the technical knowledge and diagnostic skills to fix equipment that other companies can’t or won’t repair, getting your pool systems back to automatic operation without the frustration of dealing with people who don’t know what they’re doing.
