Pool Nation Podcast - Episode #248

Your pools don’t have to turn green—and your profit shouldn’t disappear down the drain.

In this powerhouse episode of the Pool Nation Podcast, Edgar De Jesus, John “JJ Flawless” and Zac Nicholas sit down with Adam Beech (Founder & CEO, Pool Brain) and Kevin Embree (CRO, Pool Brain). They reveal how today’s smartest pool service and repair companies are harnessing AI, using guided workflows to manage techs and ensure high customer satisfaction, using automatic chemical dosing to cut chemical costs up to 40%, end customer churn, and unlock stress-free scaling.

You’ll learn:

- The cringe-worthy day that pushed Adam to build his own pool company software (and why seven other “pool route apps” couldn’t fix the problem)

- How using guided workflows, custom alerts, and automated chemical dosing virtually eliminates green pools

- NEW features dropping this year—credit-card surcharge automation, full inventory with truck-level tracking, Heritage Pool Supply price syncing, and chlorine tab-dosing driven by AI (using historical chem readings & weather forecast data)

- Why remote monitoring + Pool Brain will let you guarantee “green-pool immunity” - and enable you to charge more for it

- Proven tactics to turn hidden chemical waste (overdosing) and billing leaks into pure profit

Whether you run 20 pools or 200+ trucks, this episode is packed with real numbers, step-by-step advice, and a vision for the tech-powered future of pool service.
