Golden Coast Open All Hours To The Trade


For the busy staff of any pool, spa or sauna installation and maintenance company, returning back to the office late after a day working on site and finding the item you need can’t be ordered because the supplier’s office is now closed, is an all-too-familiar experience. To overcome this frustration, and to make product information and advice easy to access, Golden Coast operates a 24-hour web shop geared up to trade needs. Visitors to GCTrade.co.uk will find all of the product details in Golden Coast’s 344- page catalogue and price list – and much more. To gain maximum benefit from the Web Shop, trade customers are invited to open up an online account. Once logged in, they can view trade prices and other trade-only content, as well as placing orders quickly and easily at any time.


While Golden Coast’s team is always delighted to give further advice during office hours, answers to many questions can be found in a comprehensive range of downloads available from GCTrade.co.uk. – including sales brochures, product manuals and safety data sheets, as well as exploded diagrams to identify spare parts.


Regular web shop visitors will find special offers and clearance lines, and will see exciting new products and concepts highlighted. The site’s current content includes a free Golden Coast e-book advising pool and spa businesses on why and how to expand into sauna. There is also an opportunity to sign up for e-news from Golden Coast, to help avoid missing important developments.

Pleatco Launches Search For 2015 Perfect Pool Guy/Gal


Pleatco, LLC, a leader in pool and spa filtration products and co-sponsor Genesis, have announced the launch of their 2015 search for the best of the best pool and spa service technicians across the US, Canada and Europe. Now in it’s eighth year, the Pleatco Perfect Pool Guy/Gal contest, is an innovative way to honour the hard-working men and women of the pool service industry. With over 200 contestants, last year’s entrants were as impressive as ever and the contest was coined by an industry reporter as the ‘Oscars of the Pool and Spa Service Industry’.


“Over the seven years that Pleatco has sponsored this contest, we’ve learned that being a professional pool or spa service technician is more than a job… it’s a passion. Many homeowners treat their service guy or gal like family – it’s a special relationship,” said Pleatco CEO, Howard Smith. “A pool or spa is


an integral part of a home – a way to relax and it’s a place for a family to share time together. Homeowners trust their service professional to keep their ‘backyard-oasis’ safe.”


Both winners receive a trip for two to the International Pool, Spa, & Patio Expo hosted in Las Vegas at the Mandalay Bay Resort in November 2015. Most important, both winners receive a $5,000 continuing education scholarship from Genesis to attend the G3 Certified Service Professional Program.


“The service industry is extremely important when it comes to helping owners fully enjoy and appreciate their pools. Genesis Co-founder Skip Phillips and I started in pool service and it has always been near and dear to our hearts. We are proud to help honour our hard working service professionals!” remarks Brian Van Bower, President, Genesis 3, Inc. “This year’s theme is ‘A working class hero is something to be’ – an expression penned by John Lennon,” says Pleatco’s CMO, Battista Remati, adding: “This speaks to the very spirit of the contest and we will be specifically focusing on Pool Gal nominations in particular in 2015. We are looking forward to an amazing contest and urge everyone, even if they have entered in previous years to nominate either themselves or a colleague and reward them with the recognition they so duly deserve.” The contest opened on 17 July and all entries are accepted via the Pleatco website.

businesses the advantage, as does the ability to order products without any delay,” says Golden Coast’s Managing Director Jamie Adams. “GCTrade.co.uk addresses both of those needs – providing the essential support to the trade, and – in turn – to its customers.
