How We Repair Your Hayward Pool Heater
Hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms and pool equipment combine heaters, pumps, filters and controls that run in a wet, chemical-heavy environment.
We service current and older Hayward Pool Heater models. Bring the model number to the phone call if you can: it helps us check part availability before we arrive.

Should I repair or replace my pool heater?
A pool heater typically lasts about 7 to 15 years. If yours is well inside that range and the repair costs less than half the price of a new one, repairing usually makes sense. Near the end of its life, or when the repair costs more than half of a replacement, replacing is often the better value. We give you an honest opinion either way.
