Can you repair a pool pump?

Most of the new generation of pumps are already equipped with automatic controls and safety features. In fact, if you take enough time to learn the manual, you might find yourself able to repair some of the problems on your own. Of course, there are repairs and replacements are best left in the hands of professionals.

Is it worth repairing a pool pump?

When determining the magic number of replacement parts cost versus the cost of the whole pump, we generally suggest 60-75% as the standard. If the cost to repair is within or over this range, it is smarter to replace the pump. This way you have a brand new pump and warranty covering any mishaps down the line.

What is the life expectancy of a pool pump?

Pumps should last through the initially installed motor and perhaps as many as two or three replacement motors, usually 10-12 years. Modern pumps are made of hard plastic and will over time warp. If you still have an older cast iron or bronze pump on your pool, it’s time to budget in a new pump and motor complete.
