5 Signs It’s Time to Upgrade Your Pool Equipment
Keep Your Pool Running Smoothly with These Pro Tips
Your pool equipment works tirelessly to keep your water clean, safe, and enjoyable. Over time, wear and tear can take a toll, leading to inefficiencies or even equipment failure. How can you tell when it’s time to upgrade? The experts at Superior Pools have outlined five clear signs that it’s time to replace your pool equipment.
Your Pump is Noisy: A noisy pump is often a sign that parts are worn out or failing. Rattling, screeching, or grinding noises could indicate motor or impeller issues. Upgrading to a variable-speed pump not only resolves these problems but also saves energy and reduces operating noise.
Your Heater is Inefficient: A heater that takes forever to warm up your pool—or doesn’t work at all—is a clear sign it’s time for an upgrade. Newer heaters are designed to be energy-efficient and heat your pool quickly and reliably, even in cooler months.
Poor Water Circulation: Cloudy water, algae growth, or uneven distribution of chemicals are signs that your filter might not be doing its job. Replacing it with a high-performance filter improves water clarity and ensures even chemical circulation.
Cracks or Leaks in Your Pool Cover: A pool cover is essential for protecting your pool from debris and weather. If it’s showing signs of wear, like cracks, tears, or water pooling, it’s time for a replacement. A new cover ensures your pool stays clean and reduces maintenance efforts.
Outdated Technology: Still manually testing chemical levels or adjusting settings? Smart pool technology makes managing your pool easier than ever. Automate tasks like chemical monitoring, temperature adjustments, and lighting with a few taps on your smartphone.

Planning a new pool? One of the biggest questions is: what size is right for your space and lifestyle? At Superior Pools, we help Wichita homeowners design pools that fit perfectly. Here are a few key things to consider. Yard Space and Layout: Measure your backyard and consider how much room you want to dedicate to the pool versus landscaping, patios, or play areas. Intended Use: Will the pool be used for laps, family fun, entertaining, or relaxing? A lap pool may need to be long and narrow, while a family-friendly pool might focus more on shallow areas. Number of Swimmers: The more people who will be using the pool regularly, the larger it may need to be to stay comfortable and safe. Budget and Features: Larger pools cost more to install and maintain. If you want to include features like spas, tanning ledges, or fountains, they may affect your overall footprint. Local Zoning Requirements: Setback restrictions and easements can affect how much usable space you really have. Your perfect pool isn’t one-size-fits-all. The team at Superior Pools will help you design the ideal pool for your backyard, budget, and vision.
