You’re invited to the offical awards ceremony!

Service Industry News

Pleatco in partnership with Genesis/Pool & Hot Tub Alliance, understands that the industry would literally come to a halt if not for our dedicated pool & spa technicians and service professionals. The annual Pleatco Perfect PoolGuy/Gal Search is our way of recognizing and rewarding excellence.

Join us as we present the top candidates leading up to the final awards. Throughout November, Pleatco and AQUA will present the finalists so you can follow their path towards the Grand Ceremony that will be held LIVE ONLINE via an open webcast on 19th November that everyone is invited to attend.

Register today for your front row seat to the official online awards presentation and go into a weekly draw for some GREAT PRIZES in the lead up to the event.

Most importantly, thanks for supporting the pool and spa service industry and our backyard heroes!
