Orlando summers mean sunshine, backyard fun, and plenty of time in the pool—but they also mean heat, storms, and wear and tear on your equipment. At Swim ‘N Fun, we see a major increase in pool repair in Orlando during the hottest months of the year.
Here are the five most common pool repairs we handle in summer—and how you can stay ahead of them.
1. Pool Pump Overheating or Failure
Your pool pump works hardest in the summer, circulating water for longer hours due to heat, increased swimmers, and heavy debris from storms. Overheating, loud noises, or the pump shutting off unexpectedly are signs it’s struggling.
Don’t wait—addressing small pump issues early with professional pool repair can save you from a full replacement.
2. Cracks and Pool Surface Damage
High heat and fluctuating water levels can cause expansion and contraction in your pool’s surface. This leads to cracks in plaster, tile, or fiberglass, especially if the pool isn’t maintained regularly.
Visible surface cracks or rough patches shouldn’t be ignored. They can lead to leaks and costly resurfacing if left untreated.
3. Pool Leaks and Water Loss
A sudden drop in water level may not be evaporation—it could be a leak. Common summer culprits include cracked skimmers, broken return lines, or shell damage from heavy rains and heat expansion.
Professional leak detection and repair from Swim ‘N Fun ensures your pool stays safe and efficient.
4. Skimmer and Drain Repairs
With more swimmers, sunscreen, and debris from summer storms, your pool’s skimmer and drains can clog or crack. This affects water circulation and filtration, causing cloudiness or algae.
Routine weekly service helps spot and fix these issues early, but if you’re already noticing poor suction or floating debris, you may need a repair now.
5. Filter and Valve Issues
Pool filters and valves are pushed to the limit in summer. Excessive pressure, leaks, or slow filtration could mean your system needs a professional inspection. Backwashing may help, but damaged components need timely replacement.
Ignoring filter issues can put unnecessary strain on your pump—and your wallet.
