The Pool & Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA), the trade association representing the swimming pool, hot tub, and spa industry, is pleased to announce Pentair Pool as the Program Sponsor of National Water Safety Month (NWSM) this May. For the ninth year in a row, Pentair Pool will leverage its position as an industry-leading manufacturer of pool and spa solutions to help raise awareness of water safety best practices and promote the lifesaving mission of NWSM.
Over the past 22 years, NWSM has expanded into a national effort spearheaded by a dedicated coalition that includes PHTA, the American Red Cross, the National Drowning Prevention Alliance, the National Recreation and Park Association, and the World Waterpark Association. Every year, NWSM is supported by thousands of aquatics facilities, professionals, and state governments who provide educational programs, public service announcements, government proclamations, dealer and aquatics business promotions, and the distribution of water safety materials, all designed to help prevent water-related fatalities, illnesses, and injuries.
“Our commitment to safety underscores everything we do at Pentair Pool,” says Greg Claffey, President and Chief Revenue Officer, Pentair Pool. “Our continued support of National Water Safety Month perfectly complements our mission of helping people safely and sustainably enjoy pools.”
Pentair provides residential and business solutions that help people move, improve, and enjoy their water. The company’s sustainable innovations and applications help deliver smart, sustainable solutions for life. Part of their mission is to help pool owners spend less time worrying and more time enjoying their pool.
“PHTA, along with the entire NWSM coalition, is so appreciative of Pentair Pool’s continued commitment to this program,” says Sabeena Hickman, CAE, President and CEO of PHTA. “Having a leader like Pentair Pool as the Program Sponsor highlights the fact that water safety is at the core of what pool professionals do every day. We thank Pentair Pool for using their platform to promote this lifesaving message.”
