Your pool is only as good as the equipment that runs it. We Fix Ugly Pools installs, replaces, and repairs the full system — variable-speed pumps, filters, heaters and heat pumps, LED lighting, automation, and salt systems — so your pool runs efficiently, quietly, and reliably in the Arizona heat.

Complete pool equipment service & repair

From a single failing part to a complete equipment-pad rebuild, we handle it all. Our licensed technicians diagnose the real problem, recommend repair or replacement honestly, and install quality equipment that lasts — no guesswork, no upselling.

Because we also remodel and resurface pools, we understand how the whole system works together, not just one box on the pad.

Heaters, salt systems & energy savings

Want to swim longer into the fall? We install and repair gas heaters and heat pumps sized for Arizona. Prefer softer water and less chlorine handling? We install and service salt systems and replace worn salt cells.

Install, replace, or repair — we’ll tell you straight

Not every problem needs new equipment, and not every old part is worth repairing. We diagnose the real issue and give you an honest recommendation: a targeted repair when it makes sense, or a quality replacement when that’s the smarter long-term value. Either way, you get clear pricing before any work begins.

  • Loud, leaking, or failing pumps
  • Cloudy water from a worn filter
  • A heater that won’t fire or hold temperature
  • Dark, foggy, or dead pool lights
  • Salt cells at the end of their life
  • Outdated controls you can’t automate

Pool equipment FAQs

How much does it cost to replace a pool pump in Arizona?
It depends on the pump type and horsepower, but upgrading to an energy-efficient variable-speed pump typically pays for itself in electricity savings. We’ll quote the exact pump and install cost up front — no surprises.
Do you install variable-speed pool pumps?
Yes. Variable-speed pumps are our top recommendation — they run quieter and can cut pool energy use dramatically compared to old single-speed pumps. We install, replace, and program them.
Can you install or repair a pool heater or heat pump?
Yes — gas heaters and electric heat pumps, both installation and repair. We’ll help you size the right heater for your pool and Arizona’s seasons.
Do you replace pool lights with LED?
Absolutely. We replace old incandescent pool lights with modern color-changing LED lights — brighter, longer-lasting, and far more efficient.
Do you install pool automation and smart controls?
Yes. We install automation systems that let you control your pump, heater, lights, and features from a panel or your phone.
Do you replace salt cells and salt chlorinators?
Yes — we install, replace, and service salt systems and salt cells, and can convert a traditional chlorine pool to salt.
My pump is loud or leaking — should I repair or replace it?
We’ll tell you straight. Sometimes a seal or bearing repair is enough; if the pump is old or inefficient, replacing it with a variable-speed model is usually the better value. No upselling.
What pool equipment brands do you install and service?
We typically install Pentair for its reliability and efficiency, and we service and install Sta-Rite, Jandy, Hayward, AquaCal, and many other major brands — pumps, filters, heaters, heat pumps, salt systems, lights, and automation.
