Pool Heater Repair in Sarasota & Manatee County, FL
Cold pool? We diagnose and repair electric heat pump, gas and solar pool heaters — all major brands. Same fast, honest service we’ve brought to Florida homes for seven generations.
Your Pool Should Be Warm When You Want It
A pool heater that won’t hold temperature turns a year-round pool into a three-month one. Most of the pool heaters we see in Sarasota and Manatee County are electric heat pump units — and that’s the same refrigerant-cycle technology our technicians work on every day in home HVAC systems. Compressors, coils, refrigerant charge, sensors, control boards: it’s the trade we know.
We diagnose the actual fault before quoting a repair, explain what we found in plain language, and give you an honest read on whether the unit is worth fixing or due for replacement. We service gas and solar pool heaters as well, and we’ll always tell you when a repair doesn’t make financial sense.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my pool heater running but not heating?
It’s usually one of a handful of causes: low refrigerant in a heat pump unit, restricted water flow from a dirty filter or closed valve, a failed sensor or control board, or a clogged evaporator coil. Our technicians diagnose the actual fault before recommending any repair, so you’re not paying to replace parts that were never the problem.
How long does a pool heater last in Florida?
An electric heat pump pool heater typically runs 10 or more years with regular service. Florida’s salt air and humidity are hard on outdoor equipment, so annual maintenance makes a real difference. If your unit is well past the ten-year mark and facing a major repair, we’ll give you an honest comparison of repair versus replacement.
Is an electric heat pump pool heater better than gas in Florida?
For most Florida pools, yes. Heat pump pool heaters move heat from the outside air instead of burning fuel, which makes them far cheaper to run in our climate and ideal for holding a steady temperature through the season. Gas heaters heat faster from cold, so they still make sense for pools used occasionally or for spas. We’ll walk you through which fits how you actually use your pool.
Do you repair all pool heater brands?
Yes — we service all major pool heater brands and models, including electric heat pump, gas and solar systems. Call us with the brand and any error code on the display and we can often tell you what we’re walking into before we arrive.
