NESPA opens doors to community

Serving the pool and spa industry in the Northeast for more than 60 years, the Northeast Spa & Pool Association (NESPA) understands the unique challenges and opportunities facing pool & spa companies in this region. Representing companies across eastern Pennsylvania, New Jersey, southeastern New York, and Connecticut, NESPA offers a supportive community to help you thrive.

Network with peers, access industry expertise, and stay ahead of the curve with:

• Active local chapters: Penn-Jersey, Metro NY/NJ, CONSPA (CT), and LIPSA (Long Island, NY) offer regular in-person networking and training designed for your specific needs.

• National reach: Your NESPA membership automatically grants access to The Pool & Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA), providing critical knowledge about codes, regulations, and consumer trends.

Think of NESPA as your inner circle of industry pros, ready to share their knowledge, tips, and even a few laughs. NESPA connects you to industry experts and leaders who have seen it all and are happy to share the lessons they have learned.

Find Your Community. Connect with mentors, influencers, and likeminded folks. NESPA is not just about business. It's about building a supportive community where you can share challenges, celebrate wins, and find genuine connections.

Make Your Voice Heard. NESPA fights for our industry. By joining the conversation, you can help shape the future of the pool and spa industry and make a real difference.

Grow Personally and Professionally. Share your expertise, engage with peers, and become a recognized name in the industry. Meet people from different backgrounds, get fresh perspectives, and give your perspective.

NESPA opens doors to careerboosting collaborations and partnerships.

Beyond networking, NESPA membership is about unlocking your potential and taking your career and company to the next level. NESPA offers year-round training at its headquarters in Hamilton, NJ, and at locations around the NESPA region.

NESPA's Professional Training Institute (PTI) is the industry's premier training program, combining classroom learning with hands-on training.

New hires and seasoned employees can develop technical skills and business knowledge, all under the guidance of industry experts.

For nearly 50 years, NESPA has produced The Pool & Spa Show in Atlantic City, NJ. Taking place during the last full week in January each year, the show features an immersive experience offering more than 100 educational sessions carefully curated to address the evolving needs of pool and spa professionals.

The show's floor highlights the industry's latest products and services, with around 400 companies exhibiting annually.

Created by pool and spa professionals for pool and spa professionals, the show is the ideal opportunity to energize your team, create new industry connections, and spark bright ideas to improve your business.
