What is a Thermal Regulator and How Do I Know It Needs Repair?

Thermal regulators, or sometimes referred to as thermal governors are an essential part of any pool heating system. The thermal regulator is integral in controlling how much water passes through the heater, ultimately ensuring the temp stays consistently pleasant. It is also one of the most common reasons a pool heater will malfunction.

If your pool is not being heated that’s an obvious sign something is wrong. However, even if it’s being heated, it may still require professional swimming pool repair from a licensed contractor.  Common occurrences such as calcification and corrosion can negatively impact the thermal regulator, causing the water to get too hot or cold. In response, it will send an alert to the circuit board, flagging a heater high limit switch error code. If it gets too corroded or calcified, the heater may stop functioning altogether. With experience working on every heater brand you can imagine, our knowledgeable pool service technicians provide what you need with a quick turnaround – getting you back in the pool as quickly as possible.

Take Swimming Pool Maintenance Seriously

Regular pool service and swimming pool maintenance is paramount to the longevity of your pool. It’s no secret pools are expensive, both their construction and maintenance. A trained technician inspecting equipment weekly and performing preventative maintenance can help to avoid potential issues and avoid larger expenses in the future.
