In this episode, Sarah dives into an uncomfortable but necessary truth: too many pool owners think the work ends the day the pool is filled. From the outside, the water may look like a backyard dream, but if it’s left without care, it quickly becomes a breeding ground for problems—algae, unsafe water, and costly damage.

Sarah explores the mindset of “attainment without upkeep,” breaking down why simply having a pool doesn’t make someone a pool owner in the truest sense. She shares real-world examples of neglect, explains the risks (both health and financial), and lays out what consistent care looks like.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why ownership goes beyond the purchase—and what happens when maintenance is ignored
  • The hidden dangers of neglect, from algae blooms to structural damage
  • How small acts of consistency can prevent massive headaches later
  • Why “attaining” a pool is only the beginning of the responsibility

Takeaway:
A pool is not just a backyard accessory—it’s a living system that needs attention. Sarah challenges owners to rethink their role: Are you truly a pool owner, or just someone with a pool?
