Chemical Damage or Floating Liner? The Real Story
Welcome to another episode of the Talking Pools Podcast! I'm your host, Dan Lenz, and today we dive deep into a critical issue facing our industry: the state of education and the accuracy of information circulating within the pool community.
In recent years, we've seen a surge of self-proclaimed experts on social media platforms. While many have good intentions, the reality is that misinformation is rampant. This poses a significant challenge for pool owners and professionals alike who rely on these sources for guidance and solutions.
I want to address a concerning trend I've noticed. Often, those in need of help are presented with incorrect diagnoses and misleading advice, which can lead to further complications and expenses. It's more important than ever to vet the information you receive for accuracy.
To illustrate this point, let me share a recent conversation I had. A pool owner was experiencing issues with liner wrinkles. The advice they received online was that they were dealing with a floating liner. However, upon closer inspection, it became evident that the real culprit was chemical damage. This misdiagnosis could have led to unnecessary and costly repairs, not to mention prolonged frustration for the owner.
It's cases like these that highlight the need for proper education and the dissemination of accurate information within our industry. In today's episode, we'll explore how we can improve the quality of education, identify reliable sources, and ensure that the advice we follow is both accurate and effective. Let's get started!
