Pool Equipment Repairs in Westlake, TX
Fort Worth PoolSmiths repairs pumps, filters, heaters, salt systems, and automation for Westlake homeowners. Custom pools with water features and full automation run premium equipment that needs a trained hand, and our crew knows the high end Pentair and Hayward lines on pads across Vaquero, Glenwyck Farms, and Terra Bella.
Pool Equipment We Fix Across Westlake
Custom pools, water features, and full automation run premium gear that needs precise diagnostics. We repair every piece on the equipment pad so your system runs the way it was designed to.
Pool Pump Repair
Westlake pools often run high end variable speed pumps, and when one throws a drive error or loses prime we trace it to the board, the seal, or the impeller. We carry the right parts for Pentair and Hayward premium lines so the repair holds.
Pool Filter Repair
Custom Westlake pools with water features and sheer descents push more debris through the filter than a standard pool. We service cartridge, DE, and sand filters, replace the media when it is spent, and verify the multiport or valve is sealing right.
Pool Heater Repair
When a Westlake heater will not fire or hold temperature, we pull the diagnostic codes and trace the fault to the flame sensor, the igniter, or the heat exchanger. We also check the gas pressure and the venting so the unit runs safely and efficiently.
Automation Repair
Westlake pools often run full automation with multiple valves, lights, and water features. We repair IntelliCenter and OmniLogic controllers that drop schedules, lose Wi-Fi, or stop actuating valves, and we rebuild the programs so everything runs on its own again.
Salt System Repair
Salt cells on Westlake pools scale up from hard fill water and from the higher chlorine demand of large, feature heavy pools. We acid-clean the cell, test the output, and read the board codes. If the cell is past its lifespan, we size a replacement.
Pool Light Repair
Color LED lights on Westlake pools fail at the fixture, the seal, or the controller. We pull the light, replace the bulb or the housing, reseal the niche, and verify the color controller is communicating so the lighting scenes work again.
Equipment Brands We Work With
Westlake pools tend to run premium equipment from Pentair and Hayward, with some Jandy and Zodiac mixed in. Each brand wires and programs its pumps, heaters, and automation differently, and the high end lines throw specific diagnostic codes that point us to the exact fault. Our team stays current through continuing education on the latest firmware so we pull the right part the first time.
On the pump side we work with IntelliFlo and MaxPro variable speed lines. For automation we handle IntelliCenter and OmniLogic, the full featured controllers that run multiple valves, lights, and water features from a single app. When a board is discontinued or a system is past support, we tell you straight and recommend a current replacement that fits your pad.
For heaters we repair Pentair MasterTemp and Hayward Universal gas units, plus HeatPro and UltraTemp electric heat pumps. Heaters fail in specific ways, and the diagnostic codes point us to the exact sensor, igniter, or board that needs attention. We carry common parts so many Westlake repairs finish in a single visit.
For salt systems we service IntelliChlor, AquaRite, and NaturePure cells and control boards. We also install and repair LED lighting from Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy, including color lights and the controllers that run the scenes. Whatever sits on your equipment pad, we have likely seen it and fixed it before.
How an Equipment Repair Visit Works
Three clear steps from diagnosis to a working pool, with a written quote before any work starts.
We Diagnose the Problem
We inspect the equipment, pull diagnostic codes, and test the unit under load to find the exact cause. We explain what is failing and why before we recommend anything.
We Send a Written Quote
You get a clear written quote for the part and the labor, with no pressure to decide on the spot. We answer your questions so you understand the fix and the options.
We Complete & Verify the Repair
Once you approve, we do the repair and run the equipment to confirm it works. We clean up the pad and leave a summary of what we fixed and what to watch for.
Pool Equipment Installation in Westlake
When a repair is not the smart move, we install new pool equipment sized to your pool and your pad. That includes variable speed pumps, filters, heaters, salt systems, automation, and lighting from the premium brands we service every day. We match the equipment to your pool's gallonage, plumbing, and feature set so it runs efficiently from the first day.
A proper installation also means setting the pump speed, programming the automation scenes, and calibrating the salt cell so the whole system works together. We do not just drop in a box and leave. We commission the equipment, walk you through how to use it, and make sure the pad is clean and up to code before we go.
We also handle equipment pad upgrades when you want to modernize an older Westlake setup. Swapping a single speed pump for a variable speed model, adding full automation, or converting to a salt system can change how your pool feels and how much energy it uses. We plan the upgrade around your existing plumbing and electrical so there are no surprises.
Every installation starts with a free walkthrough and a written quote. There is no pressure, and no surprise charges get added later. You will know the equipment, the scope, and the timeline before any work begins.
Warning Signs You Need Pool Equipment Repair
Pool equipment usually fails slowly before it stops completely. Catching these signs early can save a motor, a heater, or a pump from a much bigger problem.
- A pump that grinds, whines, or runs louder than it used to
- Low or no water flow at the return jets, even when the pump is on
- Error codes or warning lights on the heater, salt cell, or automation panel
- Water pooling under the equipment pad or visible leaks at the fittings
Repair vs Replace: What We Recommend
We give you an honest read on whether a repair or a replacement makes more sense for your equipment. A worn seal or a single sensor on a newer pump is usually worth fixing, while a motor that has failed twice on a unit near the end of its life often points to a replacement. We look at the age of the equipment, the cost of the part, and how often it has failed before we recommend anything.
When a replacement is the better call, we give a free written quote for the new equipment and the install, and we explain why the repair would cost more in the long run. You always get both options laid out clearly so you can choose what fits your pool and your budget.

Common questions from Westlake homeowners about pool equipment repairs.
A drive error on a variable speed pump usually points to a failing drive board, a locked impeller, or a voltage issue at the pad. Westlake pools often run premium Pentair IntelliFlo or Hayward MaxPro pumps, and those throw specific codes that tell us exactly which component is faulting. We pull the code, test the motor under load, and quote the right fix instead of guessing.
