Pool Equipment Service & Repair in New Jersey
Your pool’s equipment works hard all season. The pump runs constantly. The filter processes thousands of gallons. The heater deals with NJ’s temperature swings. When equipment breaks down, the whole pool suffers.
Gorlin Pools has been servicing and repairing pool equipment in New Jersey since 1999 — we know these systems inside and out, and we fix things right the first time.
Pool Equipment We Service & Repair
- POOL PUMP - Your pump is the heart of your pool's circulation system. A pump that runs poorly means poor filtration, poor chemical distribution, and eventually a dirty pool. We service single-speed, two-speed, and variable-speed pumps, and repair or replace worn seals, impellers, baskets, and motors.
- POOL FILTERS - We service sand filters, cartridge filters, and diatomaceous earth (DE) filters. Regular filter maintenance — backwashing, cleaning, or media replacement — is essential for clean, clear water. We also diagnose and repair filters that are leaking, channeling, or not filtering effectively.
- POOL HEATERS & HEAT PUMPS - Nothing kills the mood like getting to your pool on a cool May morning and finding out your heater isn't working. We repair gas heaters, electric heaters, and heat pumps — including ignition issues, heat exchanger problems, thermostat faults, and error codes. We also handle heater installations and upgrades.
- SALT CHLORINE GENERATORS - Saltwater pools are popular in NJ and for good reason — they're gentler on eyes and skin and easier to manage. But salt cells do wear out. We inspect, clean, and replace salt cells, and diagnose control board and flow switch issues that can disrupt chlorine production.
- POOL LIGHTS - Pool light repairs involve electrical work near water — it has to be done right. We replace broken bulbs and full light fixtures, repair wiring, and upgrade older systems to energy-efficient LED lighting.
- AUTOMATION SYSTEMS - If your pool's automation system isn't responding correctly — wrong timing, pump not cycling, lights not triggering — we can diagnose and repair the control board, sensors, and actuators. We also handle new automation installations. See our full pool automation services.
Why You Shouldn't Wait on Equipment Issues
A lot of pool equipment problems start small — a little noise, a slight drop in pressure, a minor error code. Homeowners often assume it’ll work itself out. It rarely does.
Catching problems early is almost always less expensive than waiting for a full failure. A worn pump seal costs less to replace than a seized motor. A dirty filter is cheaper to clean than to replace. An ignition issue on a heater costs less to repair than the corroded heat exchanger that follows if it’s left untreated.
When we service your pool regularly, we spot these issues during routine visits. That’s one of the biggest benefits of having a consistent maintenance relationship — we know your equipment, we know what it sounded like last month, and we notice when something changes.
