| Westlake Village Pool Heater Repair Tips
When you need to take a spa and the heater won't come on, or it takes too long to heat up, then it's time for a service call to diagnose the source of the problem. You should have handy the name of the furnace as well as any error codes that are alit on the digital display. If your system is older, then you may just hear a spark and no ignition, or simply no activity at all when turning the thermostat up. In Thousand Oaks, Agoura or Westlake Village, pool heater repair is necessary on a periodic basis as spiders or bugs will climb in and nest, leaving egg sacks in the pilot or burner orifices. This is a common problem as it obstructs the gas flow into the pilot assembly and disrupting ignition. A simple cleaning can restore operation. You may also want to check to see that the gas valve is on - this is inside the heater cabin. And there should be a gas cock on the galvanized 3/4" line that enters the furnace; make sure it is also open. Finally, in case you haven't used your system for years, it is possible that the main meter is shut off by the house. We recommend that you always consult your professional before attempting any repairs, or set an appointment for one of our techs to come out for a heater service call. We are competent to find the problem shortly and provide a repair solution.
