About this episode
The episode discusses current trends in backyard pools and outdoor living spaces with insights from an in-ground pool specialist.
The Backyard Family Fun Podcast from Pride Pools, Spas, and Leisure Products is back with Host Dee Daniels talking with Warren Fair, an in-ground pool specialist at Pride Pools, Spas, and Leisure Products in Savannah, about current pool and backyard trends. They explain how homeowners are shifting from large, deep pools with diving boards to smaller pools that serve as a centerpiece within a full “backyard oasis” featuring landscaping, seating, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and lighting, with planning for gas and electrical needs early. Warren highlights growing demand for smart pool automation via phone apps, variable-speed pumps, and robot cleaners to reduce work and energy use, noting operating costs can drop significantly with variable-speed scheduling. They compare vinyl liner, fiberglass, and custom gunite pools, emphasizing faster installation and affordability for liner/fiberglass while still offering features like tanning ledges. Warren also stresses designing adequate decking/concrete space for entertaining.
