Hiring in Tarrant County

Not every pool contractor installs every type of heater. Before hiring, confirm that the contractor installs or services the heater you want (heat pump, gas or solar), get 2–3 written quotes, check the license on the TDLR license search and ask who will pull the city permit.

Frequently asked questions

How do I check that a Tarrant County pool contractor is licensed?

Search the contractor's license number or business name on the TDLR license search. Look for a current Residential Appliance Installation Contractor (or Electrical Contractor) license, and make sure the business name on your contract matches the license record. For new gas piping, check the plumber's license with the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners.

Can a pool contractor install or repair my pool heater?

Many can, but not all. The businesses listed here hold TDLR Residential Appliance Installation Contractor licenses, which TDLR says allow installing and replacing pool heaters and related equipment on the load side, and a license alone doesn't tell you which heaters a company works on. New electrical circuits need a licensed electrical contractor and new gas lines a licensed plumber. Ask each contractor whether they install and service the specific heater type and brand you want. See our hiring guide.

Do I need a permit to install a pool heater in Tarrant County?

Rules vary by city. Installing new equipment often involves electrical, plumbing or gas permits, so check with your city's building or permitting office (or the county, outside city limits). Your licensed contractor normally applies for the permit; ask for the permit number and keep the final inspection record.

Heat pump, gas or solar: which is best?

Each has trade-offs. Gas heaters heat quickly and hold temperature in any weather; heat pumps usually cost more up front but have lower running costs; solar has low operating costs but depends on sunshine. Read our heat pump vs. gas guide.
