Your pool’s pump is the heart of its circulation system—without it, water can quickly turn stagnant and unsafe. At KT Pool Service, we specialize in diagnosing and fixing a wide range of pool pump issues, including burned-out motors, noisy bearings, and clogged impellers.

Our repair process begins with a full system inspection. We check the motor, electrical wiring, impeller housing, seals, and filter pressure to identify failure points. Whether it’s a faulty capacitor or a deteriorated O-ring, most units are repaired on-site the same day by our certified technicians. You’ll get clear feedback, no upselling, and prompt service that gets your water flowing again.

Types of Pool Pump Repairs We Provide

KT Pool Service offers expert solutions for every type of pool pump issue—whether mechanical, electrical, or hydraulic. Below are the primary categories of repairs we offer:

1. Motor Diagnostics and Replacement

We address issues such as pumps that hum, overheat, or fail to start. When repair isn’t cost-effective, we recommend high-efficiency replacement motors that meet California energy standards.

2. Impeller and Seal Repairs

Damaged or clogged impellers reduce water flow and strain your system. We also replace worn shaft seals to stop leaks at the motor housing.

3. Capacitor and Electrical Component Replacement

If your pump is silent or only hums when turned on, it could be a failed capacitor or relay. We test and replace faulty electrical components on-site.

4. Pump Housing and Seal Plate Repairs

Cracked pump housings or deteriorated seal plates lead to water leaks and pressure loss. We realign or replace these parts to restore structural integrity.

5. Air Leak Detection and Suction Troubleshooting

Suction-side air leaks are a common cause of bubbles and flow loss. We locate and seal leaks at fittings, gaskets, or plumbing joints.

6. Flow Recalibration and System Testing

Not all problems require part replacement. We perform full flow testing and recalibrate pump settings to ensure optimal performance and energy efficiency.

Common Pump Issues We Fix

  • Pump won’t start or overheats
  • Loud or screeching noises
  • Weak or no water circulation
  • Leaking seals or connectors
  • Air bubbles in return jets
  • Low filter pressure or flow

Signs You Need Pool Pump Repair

Catch pump problems early to avoid full system breakdowns. Here are the most common warning signs that indicate your pool pump needs professional attention:

  1. Strange Noises
    Grinding, screeching, or rattling sounds often point to worn-out bearings or motor issues.
  2. Pump Won’t Start
    A non-responsive pump may have a faulty capacitor, tripped breaker, or electrical short.
  3. Weak Water Flow
    Reduced suction or low return pressure typically indicates clogs, air leaks, or impeller damage.
  4. Visible Leaks
    Water pooling around the base of your pump could mean cracked housing or seal failure.
  5. Air Bubbles in Return Jets
    Indicates suction-side leaks or priming issues.
  6. Overheating or Frequent Shutdowns
    Could signal motor overload or inadequate ventilation.

High Energy Bills
Older or failing pumps often consume more power due to inefficiency or poor calibration.
