The most common symptoms that your pool’s pump needs some extra attention include the following:
Strange Sounds
This is a surefire sign that your pool pump needs to be repaired. When you begin hearing strange sounds, such as screeching, rumbling, or grinding noises, your pump is trying to tell you something has gone awry. In most cases, it’s either rumbling, screeching, or grinding noises. Whether it requires dislodging or new pump bearings, our team can get to the root of the issue.
Water Leaks
There are many reasons behind leaks or a noticeable decrease in your pool’s water levels. This issue can be due to dislodged pipes or even a faulty O-ring, though often, it is due to much trickier issues. The source of leaks can be difficult to find unless you know exactly where to look, which is why you should only rely on our seasoned professionals to check out every possible culprit.
Air Leaks
If you’ve begun noticing your pool pump sucking in air, this is a sure sign that your pump needs repairs. We have the tools to find the exact location of any air leaks, allowing us to quickly address the issue before it has a chance to become more severe.
Stagnant Waters
Though this isn’t something most pool owners give much thought to, non-moving waters indicate a malfunctioning pool pump. Continually circulating water is not only crucial to the overall well-being of your pool, but it also ensures the water does not become contaminated. When your pool pump fails, it has the potential to put everyone who takes a dip at a health and safety risk.
Old Age
If your pool pump is over a decade old, there’s a pretty significant chance that it will need to be repaired or replaced. A dated pool pump will eventually have trouble meeting demands, causing the pool’s pump and motor to break down completely.
Power Trips
If you’ve recently experienced power trips at your Tampa, FL, commercial or residential property, it may be the underlying problem surrounding your pool pump’s failure. If you notice these power trips start happening once you turn on your pool pump motor, all signs will typically point to electrical issues that signal your pump is experiencing motor problems. In this case, our seasoned team will determine whether simple repairs or a full replacement will be necessary.
Continual Motor Shutdowns
A pool pump that experiences constant motor shutdowns is usually an indication that there are overheating or clogging issues present. Additionally, an overworking fan could be to blame, which will cause your system to overcompensate and wear itself out fairly quickly. Fan issues are commonly the signs of a more severe problem and should be looked at by our team of professionals before the situation becomes more expensive to repair.
