Identifying Common Pool Heater Issues

When your pool heater isn’t working properly, it can be tough to pinpoint what’s wrong. Here’s how to recognize early warning signs and what they might mean for your equipment.

Common Pool Heater Error Messages

Modern pool heaters often display error codes or alerts when something’s not right. One of the most frequent is the “Service Heater” message. This warning usually signals a problem that needs professional attention. Possible causes include low water flow, ignition failure, dirty filters, or even sensor malfunctions. Ignoring this alert can lead to bigger—and more expensive—repairs down the road.

Pool Heater Troubleshooting Tips

Before calling in the pool pros, here are a few simple steps to try yourself:

Thermostat settings – Make sure it’s set to your desired temperature.
Power supply – Ensure the breaker hasn't tripped.
Water flow – Dirty filters or low pump pressure can prevent the heater from running.
Pilot light or ignition – For gas heaters, this can be a common issue.

Signs Your Heater Needs Serviced by a Professional

Watch for these signs that your pool heater needs repair service:

Water isn’t heating or heats inconsistently
Strange noises coming from the unit
Visible leaks or rust around the heater
Repeated error codes or shutdowns
Spike in energy bills without increased usage

If you notice any of these issues, it’s time to contact your local ASP. We’ll inspect your system, explain what’s going on, and get your heater back in action quickly and safely.

Proactive Care vs. Emergency Service

When it comes to pool heater performance, preventative maintenance is always better than an emergency repair. With proactive care from ASP, you can avoid unexpected breakdowns, extend the life of your equipment, and ensure your pool stays warm and ready whenever you are. Regular pool cleanings, inspections, and tune-ups help catch small issues before they turn into costly repairs.

But if your heater suddenly stops working, don’t worry—we’re also here when you need us most. Our team responds quickly to emergency service calls, diagnosing the issue and getting your system back up and running as soon as possible.

Emergency Pool Heater Service

When your pool heater fails unexpectedly—especially right before a swim or during cooler weather—it can be stressful. ASP is here to help with fast, reliable emergency pool heater repair service that gets your system back up and running quickly.

What to Do When Your Pool Heater Fails

1. Turn off the power to the heater at the circuit breaker.

2. Shut off the gas supply if you have a gas heater.

3. Avoid trying to restart the unit repeatedly, which could make the issue worse.

4. Check for visible signs of trouble, like leaking water, strange smells, or unusual noises.

5. Contact ASP immediately for emergency service.

We understand how frustrating a broken heater can be—especially when you're counting on your pool to be ready. Let us handle the urgent fix, so you can get back to enjoying your pool without the stress.
