Step-by-step

Step 1: Diagnose the symptom precisely

Pump not priming = air leak or seal failure. Pump running but no flow = impeller clog or cavitation. Filter pressure spike = needs backwash or media replacement. Heater not firing = ignition, gas valve, or pressure switch. Salt cell low output = cell needs cleaning or replacement.

Step 2: Check the easy stuff first

Skimmer basket full? Pump basket full? Water level below skimmer? Breaker tripped? Timer set correctly? About a third of 'equipment failures' are one of these five.

Step 3: Request WETYR Pools for repair or replacement

WETYR Pools dispatches the right local vendor for the diagnosis and repair. WETYR recommends equipment upgrades when repair cost approaches replacement cost (typically at 50 to 60 percent of new).
