Pool Heater Repair & Service

The long-standing love of warm water

Ever since the very first heated swimming pool around 38-8 BC by a Roman man named Giaus Maecenas, the idea has been one of luxury and opulence. In ancient times, only the few could afford such convenience, but times have changed. Now there are nearly as many heated swimming pools as there are unheated. When pool heaters became more popular after WWII, there was only really a Gas heater option. However, over time, new energy sources were found to be useful, such as Solar and Electric.
