Frequently asked POOL SERVICE questions

What does pool equipment maintenance involve?

Equipment maintenance covers everything needed to keep your pool’s mechanical systems running efficiently and reliably: cleaning and inspecting the pump, filter, heater, and automation system; lubricating seals and O-rings; checking and tightening electrical connections; cleaning salt cells; and testing equipment operation under normal running conditions. 

Critical equipment checks happen at every weekly service visit. A thorough equipment maintenance review is recommended at least twice per year, before summer and before winter. Salt cells, in particular, should be inspected and cleaned every 3 months in Arizona’s hard water. 

Yes, equipment maintenance is included in Pool Pilots weekly cleaning service plans, which start at $150/month. For standalone equipment maintenance visits outside of a plan, call us at 602-842-7178 for pricing. 

We maintain equipment from all major manufacturers including Jandy, Pentair, Hayward, Raypak, Polaris, and Dolphin. Our technicians stay current on new equipment models and firmware updates, particularly for automation systems. 

Many equipment manufacturers require documented proof of regular maintenance to honor warranty claims. Pool Pilots provides detailed service reports after every visit, giving you an accurate maintenance history that supports any warranty claim if needed. 

Salt chlorine generators are the most frequently neglected piece of equipment we encounter. In Arizona’s hard water, salt cells accumulate calcium scale rapidly and lose efficiency. A cell that should produce chlorine for 6 years can fail in 2 to 3 if it is never cleaned. Regular inspections and cleaning make a dramatic difference in cell lifespan.
