Pump Maintenance in Heyfield

Heyfield sits on the Thomson River about 36 km north-west of Sale. It falls under Wellington Shire Council, postcode 3858. Central Gippsland summers are hot and dry, and northerly winds blow gum leaves, dust and pollen straight into backyard pools.

Debris such as leaves and dust, along with the long, hot run from November to March, keeps pumps in Heyfield working hard. A regular service keeps flow up, power bills down and stops small seal or bearing wear turning into a burnt-out motor.

Under Victorian rules, any pool or spa that can hold more than 30 cm of water must be registered with Wellington Shire Council, with a barrier compliance certificate lodged every four years. We service Heyfield regularly from our base in Sale, so give us a call to book in.

Pool Pump Maintenance Questions from Heyfield Pool Owners

How often should a pool pump be serviced?
Once a year for most pools, ideally before the swimming season, with basket checks every week or two in between.

How long should my pump run each day?
It depends on pool size, pump type and season. We set run times and speeds so the water turns over properly without wasting power.

Is a variable-speed pump worth it?
For most pools, yes. Running slower for longer moves the same water using much less power. We can advise if your setup suits one.
