Show Notes
We dive into the unique journey of James Smith, founder of Homestead Pool Services, who swapped stethoscopes for skimmers and never looked back. James shares how his background as a Registered Nurse gave him an unexpected edge in the pool industry—especially when it comes to chemistry. We explore his path from healthcare to pool care, and his latest project: a Zoom-based Chemistry Course for Pool Pros, designed to demystify water balance and give techs the confidence to diagnose and dose like pros. Whether you're a seasoned pool tech or just curious how medical training translates to crystal-clear pools, this episode is packed with insight, humor, and hands-on tips.
