Within the pool industry, we’re feeling inflation, but at much higher levels than the national average. Monthly inflation for the past 12 months has averaged 5.7 percent nationally. Across the pool industry, it has been much higher–reaching between 25 and 35 percent in some areas! That’s why we developed our pool industry inflation calculator.
Cost increases for pool equipment, chemicals, and labor have been rising faster than the rate of inflation.
This jump in the cost of doing business is hitting pool service companies hard and presents a dire challenge. Simply put, these inflationary pressures on costs can erode the profit margins of operations that aren’t actively managing them.
At National Pool Partners, we could not risk the livelihood of our employees or our commitment to our customers, so we had to do something. So, we came up with a simple but powerful inflation impact tool.
At National Pool Partners, we know that achieving our mission of elevating the pool service industry means that we need to help create a healthier industry overall.
So, after going through this exercise and developing our pool industry inflation calculator, we decided to release this tool free of charge to anyone else who wanted to use it.
