How to choose the best pool equipment? This is a common question from pool owners and Steve talks in depth in this video about how pool equipment is sized for the application, not to just each other but also to the pool volume, pipe size, number of pipes etc. Generally pool owners would be well advised to speak with a local pool professional in your area when it comes time to update or replace your existing pool equipment. This way you can be confident that the equipment you get will be the right stuff for the job as well as not creating a dangerous situation or entrapment hazard in your pool by using the wrong equipment.
In the world of pool equipment manufacturers there really are only three larger, more well established brands with a full suite of pool equipment offerings: Hayward, Pentair and Jandy (Fluidra). There are many other equipment manufacturers who deal with partial equipment lines or even individual product offerings, however these smaller manufacturers hold a tiny amount of market share as compared to "the big three" pool equipment manufacturers, as they are called within the industry. More than ever there are viable alternative brands and options available to pool owners looking to purchase online, self install or potentially install equipment of unknown origin / manufacture. Be sure to read reviews before buying any off-brand products, and consider speaking with a local pool specialist before you commit to any purchase. That way you can make the most possible informed decision about your new pool equipment.
