Last season my 6 year old Aqua Heat heat pump stopped working because the refrigerant leaked out. Every pool company I called told me I needed an HVAC guy and every HVAC guy I called didn't work on them. Finally I got someone to come recharge the system and it worked for a few weeks before it leaked out again so now it doesn't work. So I have 2 questions:
1. Does anyone have any suggestions on who to call to fix the leak?
2. Is it worth it to even fix? I'm thinking I should just replace it since it will cost me a few hundred dollars to have someone come to even look at it (if I can find anyone) and it may be at the end of its lifespan anyway. I'm also considering switching to a gas heater just because it seems easier to get someone to work on them.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
