Pump Repairs in Korumburra

Korumburra sits in the Strzelecki foothills of South Gippsland, about 120 km south-east of Melbourne. Homes here (postcode 3950) are in the South Gippsland Shire Council area. South Gippsland’s rolling hills get more rain than most of Victoria, which dilutes pool water and washes soil and leaves into it.

Pumps in Korumburra run hard through the summer months, and debris such as rain-washed soil and leaves in the basket and impeller puts extra strain on seals, bearings and motors. A quick repair gets water moving again before the pool turns.

Remember that Victorian pools and spas over 30 cm deep need to be registered with South Gippsland Shire Council, and the safety barrier must be inspected and certified every four years. We service Korumburra regularly from our base in Sale, so give us a call to book in.

Pool Pump Repairs Questions from Korumburra Pool Owners

Why is my pool pump so loud?
Screeching or grinding usually means worn bearings, while rattling can be debris in the impeller. Both get worse if ignored, so it is worth having it checked early.

My pump hums but won’t start. Can it be fixed?
Often, yes. A failed capacitor or a jammed impeller is a common cause and is usually a straightforward repair.

Should I repair or replace my pump?
We test the motor and quote the repair. If the pump is old or the fix costs close to a new unit, we will tell you and talk through energy-efficient options.
