❓ Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What are the signs I need pump repair?
The most common signs are: loud whining or grinding noises, the pump repeatedly losing its prime (not holding water), the motor overheating or shutting off, or a visible leak from the pump housing.
How often should I replace my pool filter elements?
Cartridge Filters: Typically replaced every 2-5 years, depending on maintenance and usage. D.E. Grids: Generally replaced every 5-10 years, or when a tear causes D.E. powder to enter the pool. Sand: Should be replaced every 5-8 years as the media degrades and loses its filtration effectiveness.
