Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Breaking Down Sodium Bromide with Scott Hamilton
Q: What is bromate, and under what conditions can it form in a pool?
Bromate forms through oxidation pathways from bromide to various oxidation states with bromate being toward the end of the chain; UV light, heat, and strong oxidizers can drive the formation, and outdoor sun exposure with chlorine and other oxidizers increases the risk, particularly when high bromide levels are present.
Breaking Down Sodium Bromide with Scott Hamilton
Q: What exactly is sodium bromide, chemically speaking, and how does it eradicate algae in a pool?
Sodium bromide dissociates in water to bromide, which, upon shocking with chlorine, converts to bromine (hypobromous acid) that is a strong oxidizer and effective against algae, especially under certain pH conditions; it's not typically used as a primary sanitizer outdoors due to UV degradation but is highly effective against algae.
From Operator to Industry Innovator: Adam Beech & Pool Brain
Q: How did you first get into the pool industry, and how did that lead to Pool Brain?
Adam explains he originally entered the industry after buying a pool service route and learning firsthand how hard it is to scale, maintain training, and keep pools from going green. That hands-on frustration with repetitive failures and the limits of existing software pushed him to create Pool Brain as an all-in-one platform designed to enforce correct procedures, automate chemistry, and give technicians a concrete, scalable workflow.
From Job Sites to Social Media: Corbin Breazeale's Story
Q: How did you go from building pools to becoming the pool guy everyone sees on social media?
Corbin explains that the shift came after a key meeting with the CEO, who encouraged leveraging his skills into a social media-focused strategy. He read a script for the Pool Guy skit, which resonated, leading to a consistent, educational, and entertaining content approach that built his persona and business.
Let's Talk About WaterGuru
Q: So let's talk about WaterGuru, how does it basically work? And what does it give? How does it give the information?
WaterGuru combines a skimmer-mounted lab unit that reads test pads, a Wi-Fi/cloud connection, and a mobile app to deliver real-time water chemistry, temperature, and flow data. It also provides automated dosage guidance and analytics, turning data into actionable steps for pool pros and property managers.
