Pool Equipment and Pool Parts for Residential and Commercial Pools
western tub and pool sells a wide range of pool equipment and pool parts for both residential and commercial pools. From pumps and filters to heaters and covers, we have everything you need to keep your pool functioning at its best.
Pumps
Pumps are an essential piece of equipment for any pool. They circulate water throughout the pool, ensuring proper filtration and sanitation. At Western Tub and Pool, we offer a variety of pumps from top brands such as Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy. Our knowledgeable staff can help you choose the right pump for your specific needs based on factors like pool size, flow rate, and energy efficiency.
Filters
Filters work hand in hand with pumps to keep your pool water clean and clear. They remove debris and contaminants from the water, preventing them from circulating back into the pool. Our selection of filters includes sand, cartridge, and diatomaceous earth (D.E.) filters. Each type has its own unique advantages and our team can help you choose the best one for your pool.
Heaters
A pool heater is a must-have for those who want to extend their swimming season or enjoy a comfortable temperature year-round. At Western Tub and Pool, we offer both gas and electric heaters from leading brands like Raypak, Hayward, and Jandy. Our team can assist you in selecting the right size and type of heater based on factors such as your climate, pool size, and desired temperature.
Gas Heaters
Gas heaters are a popular choice for pools, as they offer quick heating and are cost-effective for larger pools. They run on either natural gas or propane and heat the water by burning fuel in a combustion chamber. This heat is then transferred to the pool water as it passes through the heater.
One of the main advantages of gas heaters is their ability to maintain a consistent temperature regardless of outdoor conditions. This makes them ideal for colder climates where other heating options may struggle to keep up. Additionally, gas heaters have a longer lifespan compared to other types of heaters, with an average lifespan of 5-10 years.
Electric Heaters
Electric heaters use electricity to heat the pool water. They are typically less expensive upfront compared to gas heaters, but they can be more costly in the long run due to higher energy costs. Electric heaters have a lower heating capacity compared to gas heaters, making them more suitable for smaller pools or spas.
One major benefit of electric heaters is their simplicity and ease of use. They require very little maintenance and can be easily controlled with a simple on/off switch or thermostat. However, since they rely solely on electricity, they may not be as reliable during power outages.
Heat Pumps
Heat pumps use electricity to transfer heat from the surrounding air into the pool water. This makes them an energy-efficient option for heating pools, especially in moderate climates. They are also more environmentally friendly compared to other heating methods.
Heat pumps work by extracting heat from the air using a refrigerant and then transferring it into the pool water through a heat exchanger. This process is similar to how an air conditioner works, but in reverse. Heat pumps can be more expensive upfront than gas or electric heaters, but they have lower operating costs and can save money on energy bills in the long run.
One drawback of heat pumps is that they may struggle to maintain desired temperatures during colder weather or in extremely large pools. In these cases, additional heating methods may need to be used as backup.
Solar Heaters
Solar heaters use the sun's energy to heat the pool water. They are incredibly cost-effective and have low operating costs since they do not require any electricity or gas. Solar heaters work by pumping pool water through a series of tubes that are exposed to sunlight. The water is heated as it passes through the tubes and then returned to the pool.
One drawback of solar heaters is that they rely heavily on weather conditions and may not be as effective on cloudy or rainy days. Additionally, they may have limited heating capabilities in larger pools.
