Subscription-based water care kits are gaining traction, securing repeat purchases as well as long-term consumer engagement, according to a 2026 Allied Market Research report.
“Consumers choosing to shop online is not a trend our industry can afford to ignore,” says Rene Huston, president of Patio Pleasures Pools & Spas in Sun Prairie and Madison, Wisconsin.
Every day, hot tub retailers promote wellness and good health.
Yet, as busy business owners, it’s easy to let their personal wellness fall to the wayside. A healthy lifestyle helps business owners stay sharp, make effective decisions and handle stress better and is a must, according to some of the industry’s top retailers.
Adrianne Morgan, vice president of retail operations of the Wisconsin-based pool and spa company, says watching the relationships between customers and her staff develop is the best part of the business.
Tom Tritt and Brett Huston were doing electrical work as a side gig for a local swimming pool company when the owner asked if they’d be interested in buying the business. Along with their wives, twin sisters Rene Huston and Adrianne Morgan, the couples decided to go for it. Twenty years later, in May, they converted Patio Pleasures Pools & Spas to an employee stock ownership plan.
As everyone in the industry is acutely aware, the demand for hot tubs is not as superheated as it was during the pandemic.
