Pool equipment maintenance.

Miami's year-round pool use means equipment works harder than in seasonal climates. We recommend monthly equipment inspections, quarterly filter deep-cleaning, and annual comprehensive system checks. Salt air in coastal areas accelerates wear, requiring more frequent attention.

It varies more than most services because it depends entirely on what's broken—a pump seal replacement is a modest job, while a full motor or filter system replacement is a bigger investment. That's why equipment work spans a wider price range than routine cleaning: simple fixes are quoted and often completed same-visit, while bigger replacements come with a written estimate comparing the cost of corrective work with that of a new energy-efficient unit before we do any work.

Simple tasks like rinsing a cartridge filter or clearing a pump basket are fine to do yourself. Anything involving the motor, electrical connections, or plumbing unions is riskier than it looks—pool equipment is wired for outdoor, wet conditions, and a mis-wired connection or over-tightened union is a common way an easy fix turns into more extensive corrective work. We also can't warranty parts a homeowner installed, so most clients have us handle anything past basic cleaning.

If your pump is over 8 years old and needs corrective work costing more than 50% of a new variable-speed pump, replacement usually makes more sense. New variable-speed pumps can reduce energy costs by 70% and often pay for themselves in 1-2 years.

Watch for: consistently high filter pressure even after cleaning, cloudy water despite proper chemistry, filter media visible in the pool, shortened cleaning cycles, or visible damage to cartridges/grids. Most filters last 3-5 years in Miami's demanding conditions.
