Tustin · Automation Repair
Timers, control boards, valve actuators, and app connectivity diagnosed and repaired — from a 40-year-old clock timer to a full smart-control panel.
Real work in Tustin
Tustin pairs Old Town's older pools — some of the oldest equipment in the county — with newer development that runs modern automation and HOA schedules. Pool automation ranges from a simple clock timer to a full app-controlled panel, and when a relay sticks or a board fails, the pump, heater, and valves all stop taking orders.
What actually fails
Equipment won't switch
A burned relay or a failed control board means the panel can't turn the pump, heater, or lights on and off. We test the board before condemning it.
Water going the wrong way
The little motors that turn pool/spa valves wear out and stall mid-rotation, sending water where it shouldn't go. A common and quick fix.
Runtime all wrong
Old mechanical time clocks seize, lose time, or stop switching entirely. We repair the classics and upgrade to digital when parts are gone.
Panel offline
A control panel that's dropped off its app or network usually needs a comms module, an antenna, or a firmware reset — not a whole new system.
Repair or replace?
Most automation calls are a single component — a relay, an actuator, a comms module — not a whole new panel, and we'll always try the targeted fix first. The full-replacement conversation only comes up when a board is truly dead and the manufacturer no longer makes parts for it, at which point upgrading to a current panel is genuinely the better spend.
Brands we work on
Pentair EasyTouch and IntelliCenter, Hayward OmniLogic and ProLogic, and Jandy AquaLink RS and iAquaLink — from legacy time clocks to the newest app-driven panels, we repair and upgrade all the major automation lines.
Common questions
Yes — Tustin is part of our regular Orange County route, and we handle automation repair across Old Town, Tustin Ranch, and the newer tracts near the former MCAS hangars. Same crew, bonded and insured, since 1984.
Rarely. A dropped app or network connection is usually a comms module, antenna, or firmware issue we can fix without replacing the whole panel.
Yes — we still repair the classic clock timers, and only recommend a digital upgrade when replacement parts for the old unit are no longer made.
Response within 24 to 48 hours, every time.
