Ep. 26

An existing pool does not always have to be torn out to become a new facility. Phil, Robert, and the Myrtha Pools team discuss how modular construction can adapt to renovations, temporary venues, and high-level competition facilities.

The conversation starts with Myrtha’s approach to working with contractors and designers, then moves into its “pool within a pool” renovation system, which can use an existing concrete shell rather than replacing the entire structure.

The group also explains how Myrtha Pools have been used temporarily for major swimming events and later installed permanently in other facilities. That flexibility allows the same basic system to serve renovations, community pools, training facilities, and major competition venues.

Ep. 25

A Myrtha pool changes more than the material used to build the pool. It changes how owners, designers, contractors, and manufacturers have to think about the project from design through long-term operation.

Phil Collins and Robert Morgan sit down with three members of the Myrtha Pools team to discuss modular pool construction, how the system has grown in North America, and what owners should consider beyond the initial construction cost.

The conversation covers Myrtha’s stainless-steel pool structure, applications ranging from competition facilities to elevated and recreational pools, and why understanding long-term value matters when selecting a system.

The group also discusses how Myrtha has adapted its approach in the United States, including local project management, design support, and its Myrtha Legacy team for existing facilities.

This conversation is ultimately about more than one type of pool. It is about understanding what you are buying, who will install it, and who will still be there when the facility needs support years later.

Ep. 24

No one sees every side of a commercial aquatic facility.

Phil Collins and Robert Morgan have decades of experience in commercial pool construction, but they are the first to admit there are parts of the industry they have never worked in firsthand. Operators, aquatic designers, engineers, manufacturers, and facility teams all see problems from a different angle.

That is why The Aquatic Perspective is expanding the conversation.

In this episode, the hosts discuss why bringing more industry voices onto the podcast matters, what can be learned from other people’s mistakes and experience, and their plans to record conversations with industry professionals at WWA.

They also explain why the goal is not polished success stories. It is useful conversations about what happens in commercial aquatics and what others can learn from it.
