Should you get a new pool pump? Scottsdale, AZ pool service contractors explain
Replacing swimming pool equipment is not nearly as fun as adding a pool accessory or getting a new pool liner or even upgrading your outdoor living space, but you may be wondering, should you get a new pool pump? The swimming pool contractors from SwimRight Pools in Scottsdale, Arizona explain that while it’s not a “sexy” investment, it can save you money!
An inefficient pool pump can cost you more money than you are aware of. Depending on the age of the pool and its equipment, it may make sense to talk with us to explore whether there is a need top upgrade the pool pump to a more efficient model.
Should you get a new pool pump?
The upfront cost of a new swimming pool pump may have you rethinking the need for it, but the investment you make — up front — will be reaped during the lifetime operation in lower than normal utility bills. A new pool pump is more efficient, will last longer, perform at a higher level, should be variable speed and many municipalities provide rebates for Energy Star rated equipment.
The advances in swimming pool technology make equipment more powerful and faster and this could mean it has to run fewer hours to perform the same task that your former pump could have taken many more hours to complete.
The installation of a variable speed pump means the pump only runs at top speed when it needs to and at lower speeds other times; this is also a money-saving option.
Talk with us when we pay the next service visit and let’s see if your pool pump is operating at peak capacity or whether it’s time for a replacement. We can shed light on costs versus savings ratio that occur when you upgrade. If you’ve been finding yourself having to have repairs done on pool equipment, new equipment will address that and save you money in the long run.
