Unlocking Pool Heater Longevity: A Boneyard Journey

By: Vyral Marketing | Category: Blog, Heating, Swimming Pools

Unveil the key to ensuring your pool heater lasts for years.

Have you ever wondered about the lifespan of a pool heater? Today, we’re taking you on a unique tour of our boneyard, which is essentially our heater graveyard, to discuss the remarkable longevity of our heaters.

As we stroll through the boneyard, you’ll notice a common theme among these retired heaters—the manufacturing date. Almost all of them are between 15 to 20 years old. This reveals a crucial fact: our pool heaters boast one of the longest serviceable lives in the industry. You can count on enjoying your pool for a solid 15 to 20 years with our reliable heaters.

Recently, we encountered an extraordinary case. A residential customer had been using their heater for a staggering 35 years. Yes, you read that right, 35 years! While the heater had developed a minor refrigerant leak, it could have been repaired. However, the homeowner opted for a replacement.

Inspecting the installation photos, you’ll notice a homeowner who diligently performed planned maintenance on their entire system. This meticulous care included corrosion prevention inside the heater—an essential practice for extending the life of any heating system.

If you’re interested in installing a pool heating system that matches the remarkable longevity of our ambient service heaters, don’t hesitate to call or email. Our team is here to ensure your pool stays warm and enjoyable for years to come.

GeoThermal Technology: Your Ultimate Solution for Perfect Pool Temperatures

By: Vyral Marketing | Category: GeoThermal Energy

Experience next level pool comfort with GeoThermal technology.

If you’re a pool owner, you know the struggle of wanting to take a refreshing dip on a scorching summer day only to find your pool’s water temperature nearly as warm as a bathtub. But what if we told you there’s a way to enjoy your pool at a pleasant 85 to 88 degrees, even in the hottest weather? Welcome to the world of GeoThermal pool heating and cooling.

GeoThermal technology offers a unique solution to both heating and cooling your pool. Imagine diving into water that’s just the right temperature, providing the perfect escape from the heat. But how does it work?

GeoThermal pool systems are designed to handle both heating and cooling with efficiency. Inside the system, there are two separate coils: one for your pool water and another for well water. An air conditioning cycle acts as the bridge between these two coils. During hot weather, this system works to transfer heat from the pool water to the well water, effectively cooling down your pool.

“Welcome to the world of GeoThermal pool heating and cooling.”

We visited Port Charlotte’s Centennial Park Pool, a massive 670,000-gallon oasis. Currently, this pool is being cooled down to a refreshing 82 degrees despite outside temperatures soaring up to 95 degrees. The GeoThermal heaters in action showcase the incredible feat of transferring such a substantial amount of heat from the pool to the well water. To put it into perspective, cooling the pool by just five degrees would require a staggering 150,000 pounds of ice – equivalent to a fully frozen 17,000-gallon swimming pool!

GeoThermal systems are not just for cooling; they can efficiently heat your pool in the winter too. The technology’s dual-functionality ensures you can enjoy comfortable temperatures all year long, whether you’re swimming laps in December or taking a refreshing plunge in July.

GeoThermal technology is transforming the way we experience our pools. The ability to both heat and cool your pool efficiently makes it a smart choice for any pool owner looking to maximize their swimming season and enjoy the water at its best. Say goodbye to the discomfort of a lukewarm pool and hello to a perfectly refreshing oasis.

If you need more details on how a geothermal system works or anything else related to this topic, call or email us. We’re happy to help.

A/C Unit Replacement: Knowing the Right Time To Upgrade

By: Vyral Marketing | Category: Blog

The factors to consider when deciding to replace your A/C system.

How do you know when it’s really time to change your A/C Unit? It’s a big question for people in South Florida, and for everyone in the United States as we go through an unprecedented heat wave.

While many manufacturers offer parts warranties for ten years, the cost of labor makes it sensible to consider upgrading older units, even if the parts are still under that warranty. In the case where a unit has nine years of service, and breaks down, the $2,000 it would cost to fix the unit might be better spent on an upgraded, newer system.

Of course, for any units that are outside their warranty period, it’s always preferable to get a new one rather than repair the old unit. It’s simply a better use of your money.

“The cost of labor makes it sensible to consider upgrading older units.”

When considering an upgrade, it’s always wise to reflect on the condition of the old system. Has it been well maintained? If not, your decision should be made a lot easier. Also, think about things like your budget and the advice of your A/C contractor.

If budget is a major concern, it’s important for you to know that there are options out there to help with that. Many installers offer financing, and there are often rebates and tax credits available, especially during the middle of summer.

Remember, if you have any questions about repairing or replacing an A/C unit, don’t hesitate to give us a call at 941-474-9306 or send an email. We’re always happy to help bring you peace of mind when it comes to your heating and cooling.

Before and After Hurricane Ian: Protecting a Vulnerable Client

By: Vyral Marketing | Category: Hurricanes, Preventative Maintenance, Symbiont Updates

Here’s what you need to know about picking the right GeoThermal expert.

Who you pick to install your GeoThermal pool heating system matters. The right expert can save you time and money by doing things right the first time, and they can help you when disaster strikes. 

Hurricane Ian recently decimated Florida’s coasts, and many areas were hit hard. As a result, some places had their GeoThermal heating systems ruined by the storm. One such place was the Gasparilla Inn Beach Club. Unfortunately, their previous installer didn’t take the proper precautions to prepare for the storm, so we came in to set things right.

In the video above, you can see before and after pictures of how we were able to fix the club’s GeoThermal pool and spa heating system. However, we also took preventative measures to protect against the next storm, like installing bolted tie-downs that can withstand 150-mph wind. 

If your organization suffered GeoThermal damage from Hurricane Ian, or if you want to protect yourself against the next storm, just call or email us. We’d love to help you out.

Weather the Storm: Safeguard Your Pool Heating System From Hurricanes

By: Vyral Marketing | Category: Hurricanes

These tips will help prepare your pool heating systems for a hurricane.

Hurricane season is upon us. Despite recently recovering from Hurricane Ian, it’s important to continually prepare for the possibility of another storm. To help you with this, we’re sharing what you should do for your pool heating system to keep you prepared for a hurricane.

Our customer from Edgewater Club in Englewood, Florida, was at the epicenter of Hurricane Ian. However, they followed our recommendations. They inspected their units and hurricane straps for good condition and ensured no rust or missing screws. They also turned off their power, which helped them withstand the hurricane impressively well. Everything is still intact and nothing was blown away.

Along with checking your hurricane straps, we advise you to turn off the power to the heaters and all of your power equipment during a hurricane. Once the storm has passed and conditions are safe, we recommend calling us before turning your equipment back on. Several safety checks need to be conducted to ensure the units are safe to operate.
