"This guy put in a new pool liner and a salt chlorinator in April or May 2022. From the time we got these things done, the pool was steadily losing water, and I could not keep it clear and blue. It stayed cloudy AT BEST! We could not swim in it for the entire season of 2022. Before this, I was able to keep the pool clean and balanced with just average maintenance, but the liner was getting old, and I did want to change from regular chlorine to a salt system. So we used this guy. We got the runaround every time we questioned him about the issues we were having. The liner kept coming unsnapped and sagging. He would take his time coming out to fix it, and he even told me I could fix it myself one time. As this went on, he got to the point where he would not even respond. It got so bad that after a rain, the liner would literally bubble up and float. I started losing 6 8 inches of water EVERY DAY! I messaged and called this guy, and he had every excuse in the book. Example: I messaged him on May 8, 2023, about the liner, and he did not respond for days. When he did, he said he would be out to fix it when it warmed up. DUDE! What It Is May in Mississippi! It is a million degrees outside! How freaking hot does it need to get? He finally comes out and fixes the liner by wedging PENNIES in to keep it in! Yeah! Freakin COINS, all! So we are STILL losing water! Finally, I had enough and went to YouTube and talked to other pool owners. My uncle told me to check around the steps and the light, etc., and asked if the ground around was wet, which it was not. So my uncle says, Jaz, your problem is in the liner. So, literally, within 10 minutes of knowing where to look, I found a hole in the liner above the pool line that looked like where they let the screwdriver slip when putting the pool light back in from when they installed the liner a year earlier. That is not all. there more! There was a huge tear around the steps from where the liner bubbled up and floated when he would not fix it and let the huge gaps and sags just stay. Yep! He made sure to let me know that none of that was his fault and to go call my homeowners insurance company and he would come patch the tear, but it probably would not hold! The old dude has some cojones when it comes to talking to women. I guess. Ladies, beware! He might do a good job for some of you all. I am sorry; I cannot say the same. If you DO use this man, make sure not to leave him unsupervised! Take your own pictures! Shop around! He is quick to tell you about how he is the only pool servicer in the area. buyers BEWARE!!!!!! "

FAQs for swimming pool heaters repair or service projects in Heidelberg, MS

Replacing a pool heater costs $3,000 on average. Final pricing depends on the type of heater (gas, electric, or solar) and your pool's size. Factor for swimming pool repair costs, at an average of $3,800. When you start experiencing issues with your pool heater, other equipment and structural failures often follow. Installation is often the least expensive for electric and gas heaters. Heat pumps and solar panels often cost several thousand dollars more to install.

A pool heater’s lifespan is determined by its type and proper upkeep. Solar heaters last 20 to 25 years, electric heat pumps perform for five to 10 years, and gas heaters remain effective for 5 years. Regular pool maintenance safeguards performance and prevents premature failure. Ensuring that you adhere to a strict annual service schedule protects your investment and maintains consistent heating efficiency.

Depending on the size of your pool, location, climate, and current energy prices, you’ll spend up to $20 per hour to heat a pool using propane, $9 per hour using natural gas, and $1 to $2 per hour for a heat pump. Northern climates require more energy and can double the price. Standard estimates allow homeowners to easily estimate the cost of heating a pool for a month. Propane heaters, for example, are known to burn around 1 gallon per hour per 100,000 BTUs.

An electric or gas heat pump will take eight to 14 hours to heat a pool, while a solar heat pump takes 24 to 72 hours. Multiply the number of gallons by 8.34 to get your total pounds of water. Divide this figure by your heater's BTU rating to determine how many hours it takes to raise the water temperature by 1 degree Fahrenheit.

If your pool heater is not raising the water temperature to the desired level, the issue is caused by cold ambient conditions rather than a malfunction. The best solution is to install a solar cover that locks in heat and boosts efficiency. A solar cover costing $120 to $250 enhances heat retention, ensuring your heater performs at its peak. Additionally, verify that all settings—such as thermostat calibration and water circulation—are properly adjusted to support optimal heating.

Regular annual maintenance is crucial to keep your pool heater running efficiently and to avoid high repair costs. Investing $100 to $200 in yearly maintenance prevents issues such as excessive noise, surging energy bills, and malfunctioning controls. This proactive care not only prolongs your heater’s lifespan but also ensures reliable performance throughout the season. Always refer to your warranty guidelines to follow the required maintenance procedures.
