Ace Electric is the pool electrician in Thornton, CO that homeowners and pool builders call to wire pool equipment the safe, code-compliant way. Pool electrical is not regular electrical. Water and power together leave no room for shortcuts, so bonding, grounding, and GFCI protection have to be done right the first time. We are a licensed, master electrician owned company. We pull our own permits. We show up when we say we will.
Whether you are putting in a brand new pool or fixing the equipment on a pool you already have, we handle the full electrical scope, including:
If you are putting in a new pool, the builder usually does not include the electrical and will tell you to hire your own licensed electrician.
That is where we come in. You hire us directly, so you know exactly who is wiring your pool and that it is a licensed master electrician, not whoever the builder happened to grab that week.
We coordinate around your pool builder's schedule and handle the whole electrical side: the pump, the heater, bonding and grounding, GFCI protection, a dedicated sub-panel, and the pool and landscape lighting.
We pull the permit and we make sure it passes inspection. You get one professional electrician near Brighton you can call for the build and for anything the pool needs for years after.
Building pools in the Thornton area? Most pool builders do not keep electrical in house, and handing it to a reliable licensed sub is what keeps your projects on schedule and your inspections clean. We work as the electrical contractor on pool builds, coordinate with your crew, and finish on time. Refer your homeowners to us with confidence, or bring us on as your standing electrical sub. Either way, your name stays on a job that was done right.
We are a Brighton based, master electrician owned electrical company, and we cover pool electrical throughout Thornton and the surrounding area, including Northglenn, Westminster, Brighton, Commerce City, Broomfield, Henderson, and Federal Heights.
Do I need my own electrician for a pool, or does the pool builder handle it?
Most pool builders do not include the electrical. They either subcontract it or ask you to hire a licensed electrician directly. We handle that part for homeowners and for builders who want a reliable sub.
Why does pool electrical need bonding and grounding?
Bonding ties all the metal parts of your pool together so there is no difference in electrical potential that could shock someone in the water. Grounding and GFCI protection are what cut the power if a fault happens. All three are required by code and all three are about keeping people safe.
Can you replace my old pool pump with a variable speed pump?
Yes. We size and wire the circuit for a new variable speed pump, which lowers your energy use compared to an old single speed pump.
My pool failed inspection on the electrical. Can you fix it?
Yes. We diagnose the failed items, correct the bonding, grounding, or GFCI issues, and get it ready to pass on the re-inspection.
Do you pull permits?
Yes. We pull all required permits and schedule the inspection with the city so the work is documented and legal.
