    When Walking Away Means Winning

    Send us a text In this episode, I share why learning to say “no” can be one of the most powerful tools in your pool service business. Whether it’s an account that drains your energy, a customer who constantly asks for extra work without paying for it, or cleanup jobs that just aren’t worth your time, knowing when to walk away keeps your business strong and profitable. I’ll give you real-world examples from my own route and practical ways you can politely say “bye” without burning bridges.

    DIY Pool Care Disasters (and How to Avoid Them)

    Send us a text Today I break down the most common mistakes I see homeowners make when they try to take care of their own pool. From dumping in way too much chlorine to ignoring their filters or trusting test strips over a good kit, these errors can cost more in the long run than hiring a professional. I’ll explain the myths behind DIY pool care, why “clear water” doesn’t always mean safe water, and share simple tips that can save homeowners time, money, and frustration.

    Bob Lowry Meets Ben’s Best Guess Chart: Pool Chemistry Unlocked

    Send us a text In this episode, I’m unpacking one of the most important—and misunderstood—relationships in pool chemistry: free chlorine (FC) and cyanuric acid (CYA). Using Ben’s Best Guess Chart as a foundation, and layering in insights from Bob Lowry, I’ll explain how to find the sweet spot for chlorine levels so your pool stays safe and algae-free. This is pool chemistry demystified, and once you get it, your pool care will never be the same. Support the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors! HASA https://bit.ly/HASAThe Bottom Feeder.
