"Above ground pool was opened.  They took the cover off, folded it up and placed it by my shed, filled the pool with water and treated it with chemicals.  However...they did not fill the pool enough to run the filter, did not put in the stairs or check to see if my heater was in working order as requested over the phone.  I was not notified in any way about the status of my pool heater.  No report or bill of service was given.  They charged the wrong credit card and left their tools on my deck.  Also, not very customer service friendly over the phone.  They seem almost "bothered" when I called to request their service.  Needless to say, I will not be using them again.

"Matt's service was the very definition of customer service. He was very responsive, knowledgeable, trustworthy, easy to talk to, and sympathetic to your needs. My pool heater stopped working just before the weekend of my party and it wouldn't be a success without his prompt and excellent service."

"We couldn't be happier with the work Elevation Pool and Hardscape did on our in-ground pool repair! From the very first phone call, their team was professional, responsive, and genuinely knowledgeable. They quickly diagnosed the issues we had been dealing with for months — including a cracked shell, worn plaster, and some failing coping stones — and walked us through every step of the repair process in a way that was easy to understand. The crew showed up on time, kept the work area clean, and completed the job within the timeline they promised. The craftsmanship is outstanding — the plaster finish is smooth and flawless, and the repaired hardscape blends seamlessly with the existing surroundings. It's hard to believe it was ever damaged at all."

"DeLondon came out on a Thursday looked at the job to see what was needed by way of supplies, and said the heater install would be completed by "the weekend". D is a very nice, articulate, and polite man. We called Saturday and he promised we'd see him Sunday. I called Sunday around noon, and he promised he'd work in the dark to complete the job. He didn't make it out until Tuesday. During the heater install, he was missing supplies, asked if we had some of the things he needed, and left wiring exposed that should have been in a pipe. I chalk this situation up to it being the busy season for pool repairs and installations, but instead of saying yes to an immediate job, he might do better to say up front that he can't do the job for a week. Then when you actually come to do the job, do your best work without being rushed. He is such a nice guy, it is a shame this happened."

"Matthew is one of a kind. Heâ s down to earth, very knowledgeable and dedicated to his job . I needed my water heater installed for my daughters birthday. This was not a small job. I needed over 150 feet of pipe laid down. The weather was terrible and instead of rescheduling, Matthew brought patio umbrellas to work under. He had a hiccup due to my pool heater being ancient. Matthew installed new parts and got her fired up. That night my pool heater was installed and functioning. I highly recommend hiring him."

FAQs for swimming pool heaters repair or service projects in Willowbrook, IL

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.
