Warm water for theCooler winter months

We install gas pool heaters and electric heat pumps. The technician provides a written estimate before any installation work begins.

  • Natural gas pool heaters
  • Electric heat pumps

Choosing a way toHeat your pool water

Heaters commonly last around 8 to 11 years, depending on run time and water balance. Hard water leaves calcium scale in heaters (LVVWD).

When a heater fails, we recommend replacement only when age, parts availability or repeated failures make a repair poor value. Gas heaters use natural gas, while heat pumps use electricity.

If there is a gas smell at a heater, leave the area and call Southwest Gas and 911 from a safe place.
