Frequently Asked Questions
My pool pump is making a loud screeching noise — what should I do?
A screeching pump usually means the bearings are failing. Turn the pump off to prevent further damage and call us. Bearing replacement is far less expensive than a new motor, but only if caught early before the shaft or windings are affected.
How long do pool pumps typically last in Austin?
A standard single-speed pump motor lasts around 8 to 12 years in our climate. Variable-speed pumps tend to last longer because they run at lower RPMs. Proper chemical balance and regular service extend the life of any pump.
Should I repair my old equipment or replace it?
It depends on the age of the unit and the cost of the repair. As a rule of thumb, if the repair exceeds 50% of replacement cost and the unit is past its expected lifespan, replacement usually makes more sense — especially with newer energy-efficient options available.
Is The Pool Police on a route through Rollingwood?
Yes — we have a long-running weekly route through Rollingwood proper and the surrounding 78746 area. Because Rollingwood is a small incorporated city, our same tech knows virtually every pool in the neighborhood and has typically serviced many of them for years.
My 1970s Rollingwood pool has original plumbing — can you still service and repair it?
Yes. Rollingwood has a lot of original 1.5" PVC and copper plumbing from the 1970s and early 80s. We know which equipment brands still offer compatible fittings, which modern pumps work on legacy plumbing without a full replumb, and when a retrofit is genuinely required versus optional. We'll give you honest guidance rather than pushing a full renovation.
How do you handle the Zilker-area oak leaf drop?
Rollingwood's canopy is one of the densest in Austin. We skim at every visit, monitor filter pressure closely through fall, and run phosphate-removing chemistry during peak leaf-drop season to prevent the decaying organic matter from feeding algae. Customers whose pools sit directly under mature oaks often benefit from a leaf-net cover through November.
