Repairing Pentair Pool Pumps
Pentair pool pumps use model-specific control boards, sensors and wiring layouts, so we start by reading the model and serial number from the rating label. That tells the technician which parts fit and whether any service bulletins apply to your unit.
How we repair your Pentair Pool Pump
A pool pump pulls water from the skimmers and main drain and pushes it through the filter, heater and chemical equipment before returning it to the pool. A pool pump usually combines a heater, pumps, filters, sanitizing systems and a control panel with sensors, often outdoors and near water. A technician checks power and safety switches, water flow, heating and sensors, and inspects for leaks and corrosion.

Pump will not prime
- Likely causes
- An air leak at the lid O-ring or suction fittings, low water level, or a clogged skimmer basket or impeller.
- What our technician checks
- The lid O-ring, suction side unions and water level are checked, and the impeller is inspected for debris.
Motor shuts off and restarts
- Likely causes
- Overheating from poor ventilation, low voltage, or a failing motor.

Quick checks you can do safely
