Expert swimming pool service and spa maintenance is the best way to prolong the life of heaters in the San Diego area. However, even the best weekly service and heater preventative maintenance plans will not eliminate the need for the occasional pool heater repair. The replacement of one of the many swimming pool, or hot tub heater parts is inevitable. Eventually pool owners will have to replace their pool heater because of the age of the heater or due to excessive damage. Our expert staff provides exceptional pool heater repairs and pool heater installations as well as hot tub heaters.
Exceptional Pool Heater Repair for San Diego
There are a variety of reasons that pool and spa heaters stop working. Repairs should be performed as quickly as possible once a problem is noticed. Our professional staff at ProTouch Pool Services has many years of heater training. We have experience with all types of heater manufacturers, including Raypak, Pentair, Jandy and Hayward. This education and experience allows us to make short work of even the most complex pool heater repair. Allowing the pool heater problem to continue without seeking a diagnostic evaluation usually results in more damage and higher repair costs. When ongoing heater problems are not addressed the result may be the need for a new pool heater to be installed.
Troubleshooting and repairing internal pool parts.

The pool or hot tub heater is responsible for ensuring the water consistently reaches the desired temperature as quickly and efficiently as possible. Internally heaters are comprised of gas lines and valves, electrical wiring, sensors and and other electrical components. All are capable of failure. If any part of the heater system becomes damaged, worn, or broken a pool heater repair will be needed. Exposure to excessive heat, aging, rodents and the lack of regular heater maintenance are the major reasons that pool heater internal parts malfunction.
Diagnosing and completing external pool heater repairs.
The external housing or swimming pool heater cabinet is also a place where damage and the potential for malfunction can originate. In San Diego it is common for rodents and small animals to drag trash, debris, and nesting materials into the heater cabinet. These materials block the areas around the heater exhaust ventilation system. Without proper airflow, the pool or spa heater will overheat resulting in soot build up. Also it can possibly cause the plumbing to warp and melt which eventually causes water leaks. The buildup of soot and water leak damage can result in the electrical system needing extensive repairs. A pool heater repair should be completed as soon as an issue is noticed. This can reduce the need to replace the swimming pool or hot tub heater.
Professional spa and pool heater repair service calls.

The importance of routine maintenance definitely helps San Diego homeowners and property managers avoid premature repairs. It is also vital to address a problem when it arises. At ProTouch Pool Services, a pool heater diagnostic is considered a one hour service call. We systematically troubleshoot the swimming pool or spa heater to determine the root of the heating problem. If several items need to be repaired, our heater technician will address them one at a time using a series of checklist testing.
Based on our initial findings, the technician will provide the customer with a comprehensive estimate outlining the necessary pool heater repair. The completed pool heater repair depends on the model of the swimming pool or spa heater, and the availability of replacement parts. Usually heater repair service calls are completed within a few hours. In some cases, it is more cost effective to replace a badly damaged heater than to replace multiple parts. To keep having to repair an aging or extremely damaged heater is expensive. ProTouch pool experts will often suggest replacing a worn out pool heater. We recommend Pentair MasterTemp, Jandy pool heaters and Raypak pool heaters. We believe in it’s superior quality and expected longevity.
