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.

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.
