Role: Installation Architect & Lead Editor
Expertise: Hydraulic Sizing & UV Durability
Chris lives in Phoenix, the pool capital of the USA, where he has spent 20 years in pool construction and hydraulic design. Chris is the visionary behind our “Sizing Calculators.”
He understands the complex relationship between pool volume (gallons) and the required heating capacity (BTUs) better than anyone in the industry.
He has seen firsthand what the 115°F Arizona sun can do to inferior plastic parts, so he is our harshest critic when it comes to UV-resistant materials.
A weekend hiker and desert explorer, Chris brings a sense of adventure and clarity to our content. His role is to synthesize the data from Mike, David, Jim, and Rob into cohesive, easy-to-follow guides.
He ensures that our “How-To” articles are simple enough for a first-time pool owner but detailed enough for a pro.
He is the final check on every article, making sure the “Above Ground Pool Heater” authority is maintained through accurate sizing advice and clear installation steps.
