Types of Pool Companies

There are different types of pool companies that operate within the pool industry.

Most of these companies deal with you directly by either selling you products (such as chemicals, equipment, and the various other pool supplies) or by providing various services (such as maintenance, service calls, leak detection, repairs, resurfacing, renovations, remodels, other services rendered, and all related pool work) specifically for your pool.

There are other companies, though, that will not deal with you directly or provide direct assistance to you. They deal with you indirectly by supplying, servicing, and supporting your local pool companies (who then supply, service, and support you).

Regardless of a companies' involvement with you - direct or indirect - all of these companies are in business because of you. As a pool owner, you are the end-buyers and end-users of all of the pool supplies, chemicals, equipment, accessories, products and services for use in and around a swimming pool. You, therefore, are the ultimate driving force behind this industry and all of its companies.
