Circulation Systems
Pump And Motor Repair
Your pool pump is the heart of your water circulation. When a pump starts whining, humming, leaking, or refusing to prime, water quickly turns cloudy. We diagnose and resolve motor issues, seized impellers, worn mechanical shaft seals, and electrical capacitor failures.
Motor Diagnostic & Rebuild
Testing windings, thermal overload switches, and capacitors to restore proper motor operation without unnecessary replacement.
Impeller & Shaft Seal Service
Clearing clogged debris from the impeller and replacing leaking shaft seals to protect the motor from water damage.
Priming & Suction Leaks
Tracing suction-side air leaks at the pump lid, drain plugs, and intake unions that cause loss of prime.
Temperature Control
Pool Heater Repair
A cold pool or spa when you expect warm water usually points to a sensor fault, ignition failure, or gas valve issue. As licensed Texas Appliance Installers, we safely troubleshoot gas pool heaters and heat pumps across Richmond.

Repairing faulty igniters, pilot assemblies, flame sensors, and gas valve controls.
Error Codes & Sensors

Common Questions
Pool Repair FAQ
Can you repair my pool pump motor or does it need to be replaced?
Many pump motor issues can be repaired by replacing worn bearings, capacitors, or mechanical shaft seals. If the internal windings are burned or the motor has suffered catastrophic water damage, replacement may be the better option. We test the motor first and explain your choices.
Why is my pool heater not turning on?
Pool heaters depend on several safety sensors including the water pressure switch, high-limit switches, and flame sensors. If water flow is low, or if the sensor detects an issue, the heater shuts down to protect itself. We test every sensor and ignition component to isolate the cause.
Why is DE powder blowing into my pool?
DE powder returning to the pool almost always means there is a tear in one of the filter grids, a cracked top manifold, or a damaged standpipe O-ring. We disassemble the filter, inspect each grid, and replace damaged parts.
Do you service pool lights?
Yes. We troubleshoot and replace incandescent bulbs, fixtures, and modern color-changing LED pool lights, making sure the niche and GFCI protection are safe.
Are your repair technicians licensed and insured?
Yes. Rychlik Pool Services, LLC holds a Texas Appliance Installers License (#574176), Certified Pool Operator (CPO) credentials (#C-109512), and is insured.
