May openings, humid-summer weekly service, cottonwood fluff in June, and a leaf-heavy fall close define the calendar. Snow-rated covers and clean line blow-outs make the difference between an easy spring and a green one. Freeze damage — cracked pump housings, split filter tanks and burst above-ground plumbing — is the classic spring repair here, and a documented winterization is the best defense.

Repair a component under about eight years old with a single failed part. Replace when the unit is older than ten years, when the repair is more than half the cost of a new one, or when a more efficient model — a variable-speed pump or a heat pump — pays back through lower Michigan energy bills within a few seasons. Ask for both quotes and the expected life of the new unit.

Repair when the pump is under about eight years old and one part failed — a shaft seal, capacitor or lid o-ring is a $300-class fix. Replace when the motor is more than ten years old, the repair is more than half the cost of a new unit, or you are still running a single-speed pump: a variable-speed model typically cuts pump electricity by 50–80% and is required for most new installs under federal efficiency rules.
The most common causes are low water flow (dirty filter, closed valve or a failed pressure switch), a failed igniter or thermistor, a tripped high-limit switch, gas supply problems or a control board fault. Check filter pressure and valves first; if flow is fine, a heater technician can test the switches and board in one visit. Repairs typically run $150–$525, and units past 12–15 years are usually replacement candidates at $2,600–$6,700.
Pump motors typically last 8–12 years, filter cartridges 2–4 years, DE grids 5–10 years and filter tanks 15–25 years. Gas heaters last 10–15 years and heat pumps 10–20 with clean water and steady flow. Salt cells run 3–7 years depending on runtime and calcium scaling. Balanced water and clean filters are the cheapest way to reach the long end of those ranges.
The outdoor season in Novi runs June through early September — about 3 months unheated. A full professional winterization each fall protects plumbing and equipment through the freeze, and spring openings cluster into the same few weeks. June through early September unheated, with heaters commonly adding six weeks. Winters are long and freezing (lake-effect snow on the west side), so pools get a thorough professional close by early October.

Michigan licenses residential builders at the state level — verify the license and insurance certificates before signing. Pool permits and residential-code barrier requirements (fences, self-latching gates) run through your township or city, and inspectors in the metro suburbs are diligent about them.
Often, yes. Most manufacturers give a longer warranty — commonly three years instead of one — when equipment is bought and installed through a qualified pool professional, and some void coverage for online purchases installed by the owner. Ask the repair company whether it is a warranty station for your brand and keep the installation invoice with the serial number.
