Pool Repairs
Pool repairs in Melbourne, FL
Pool repair specialists you can count on to get it done, from a leaky PVC joint to a complete system replacement.
Chapter 01
What actually fails on a Brevard pool pad
Most pool trouble starts on the equipment pad, and it usually announces itself. A pump that screams or chatters is pulling air or has a tired bearing. A cartridge filter that climbs in pressure and never drops after a cleaning is done. A damp spot at a PVC joint is a slow leak that wastes water and chemicals every day it runs.
Heaters have their own tells. A gas heater that clicks and never lights, trips out after a minute, or heats the spa but not the pool is asking for a tech, not another reset. Lights that flicker or go dark, an automatic cleaner that stalls in the deep end, and a control panel that stops answering the phone app all belong on the same list.
We handle every one of them out of the Wickham Road shop in Melbourne: pool pumps and filters, automatic pool cleaners, pool heaters, pool lights and lighting, pool plumbing repairs, and pool and spa control systems. You can count on us to get it done.

How a repair call goes with a shop behind it
The advantage of calling a pool store that also does the repairs is the parts counter. Aqua-Rite stocks the popular parts from name brand suppliers and sells and services Hayward, Jandy, Pentair, Rheem and AquaCal equipment, so a tech who finds a failed motor or a cracked valve body isn't waiting on a distributor for a part number.
The scope runs from a leaky PVC joint to a complete system replacement, including the latest technology the industry has to offer. That means the crew can fix the one thing that's broken, or tell you straight when a pad of mismatched, aging equipment is cheaper to replace as a system than to patch a part at a time. Our repair techs keep attending training seminars and education classes so new pumps, heaters and automation don't catch them off guard.
Heater work is a good example. Brooke Pierson wrote in a Google review that her gas pool heater wasn't working and Luis did a fantastic job getting them back on track: “Quick turn around, knowledgeable and fair.” That's the standard the shop works to on every pad.

Keep the new part from failing early
Most replaced equipment dies young for the same reasons the old equipment did: dirty filters, starved pumps and water that isn't moving. A pump run dry on a clogged basket cooks its seal. A heater fed through a filter that needs cleaning overheats and cycles off.
That's why a repair call often ends with a short list: clean the filter on schedule, keep the water level up so the skimmer never sucks air, and keep the water circulating. Our weekly pool maintenance program covers filter and basket cleaning and inspecting and lubricating o-rings, which is the quiet work that keeps a pad healthy between repairs.
If something on your pad is making a noise it shouldn't, call the shop at (321) 255-0506 or stop by 4100 N. Wickham Road in the Post Commons Shopping Center. We serve Melbourne, Suntree, Viera, Rockledge and the beaches from Satellite Beach to Indiatlantic.

Repairs are one half of keeping a pool running. The other half is the weekly pool maintenance program, and when a pool has lost its fun appeal the crew also handles pool renovations. Parts, chemicals and accessories are on the shelf at the pool supply store. Not sure which one you need? Tell us what the pool is doing and we will point you the right way.
