*TRICHLOR SHORTAGE: Last summer, 2020, during the pandemic and just before a major hurricane through Louisiana, the chlorine
factory that produces roughly 40% of the nation's supply of "trichlor" and "dichlor" was destroyed due to a fire. This means that until
production can catch up to demand there may be an impact on availability. There are other options and we are always here to keep
your pool healthy. Speak to one of our store or service team members to find a solution that's right for you.
