Pool equipment is the main source of a healthy swimming pool. If something goes wrong with your pool equipment you may find that your water conditions become unhealthy to swim in. How do you know when it's time to replace your pool equipment? 

There are a few factors that go into the life expectancy of your pool equipment. Things like age, workload, water balance, hours of use, frequency of maintenance, etc., are all contributing factors on whether or not you may need to replace the equipment. 

Below are a few signs that your equipment may require replacing: 
  • You find yourself paying for a lot of repairs
  • The model is an older model. 
  • Is your model efficient and still doing its job of conserving water and energy?

The best time of year to replace your pool equipment is right before it is time to open your pool for the summer. 

Thinking about upgrading or replacing your pool equipment, but not sure where to start? Vistancia Pool Care can help.  Give us a call for any questions that arise.

Save Energy And Money With A Variable-Speed Pump For Your Pool

HOW VARIABLE-SPEED PUMPS SAVE ENERGY
​When we talk about pool renovations, repairs and retrofits that reduce a pool’s energy consumption, the focus typically turns to the pump, because it consumes more energy than any other piece of pool equipment. Plus, a well-designed variable-speed pump can reduce the energy costs of running a swimming pool by up to 90 percent.

Why?
Historically, pool pumps with induction motors that run at only one or two speeds have drawn more energy than is required to circulate pool water. That is because a pump that can run at only one speed must use a powerful enough speed to do the pump’s most demanding job (e.g., running a waterfall or pool cleaner). However, it takes far less power to simply keep water filtered—a difference single-speed pumps cannot address.

No matter what kind of pump is being used, slower pump speeds save energy. They also dramatically reduce the noise level associated with traditional pool pumps and reduce wear on not only the pump itself but also on filters, heaters, chlorinators and other equipment that water flows through.
