Retail Store & Product Offerings

Fun, fun, fun...that's what we like to have in our pool store. All work and no play made Jack a dull boy...remember? Well, Jack got a pool and he's having a ball now! We've set Jack up with a full array of automated systems to control his chemicals, pool cleaning, heat, and equipment. We even stuck a pool alarm on there, as well as, fitting his pool for a safety cover so he doesn't have to worry about the kiddies anymore during the season or off-season. Jack's a new man! With all his fun pool lounges, pool games, and his outdoor kitchen...it's a whole new atmosphere at the Inn!

All retail products are available at our both our Massachusetts and New Hampshire stores.

Information and Troubleshooting

Family Pools prides itself in its knowledge. We have a full-time, year round staff who specializes in pools. This is our life! We dedicate ourselves to keeping up with industry standards, new products, new technology and combining that with experience gained. This we are happy to share with you so that you can enjoy your swimming pool experience. We provide:

  • Instructional information for proper pool openings and closings
  • Operational advice for new pool owners
  • Product information and advice
  • Troubleshooting and problem solving
  • Chemical and maintenance tips

Chemicals

  • Automated control and chemical systems
  • Full supply of balancing and maintenance chemicals for pools and spas
  • Instruction of proper water chemistry and pool maintenance
  • Safe low-maintenance chemical systems
  • Proteam Supreme

It would be way too easy if everyone liked to use the same chemical system.
My life would be boring. I wouldn't know what to do with myself. For that reason, we train our staff in the ways of old and the ways of new. Everyone has their own lifestyle with their own schedules and we try to find a program best suited for you.

We also realize that even though many things change, some people are very comfortable with their old way of caring for their pools and that's just fine. You also have to choose a system suited for your pool. Some of the older pool systems cannot adapt to some of the newer chemicals. Often, we find people listening to their neighbors, friends, and co-workers and receiving poor advice for their pools, sometimes resulting in bleached or burned vinyl liners, scaling, or corroded equipment.

We ask that you graciously take your friend's advice, as I'm sure they mean well, and run it by us before tormenting your pool. After all, we love pools here! If you're not totally happy with your pool system or care to learn about newer or, possibly, lower maintenance products, we offer:

  • Automated control and chemical systems
  • Full supply of balancing and maintenance chemicals for pools and spas
  • Instruction of proper water chemistry and pool maintenance
  • Safe low-maintenance chemical systems

We carry many lines of chemicals including Family Pools brand chemicals, as well as Pristine Blue, Phoenix, Proteam, Feron, New Water, Nature2, Frog, Serena, Leisuretime, My Blue Pool, Omni, Omega, Swimline Miracle Wipes (a fantastic new product line!), My Blue Pool Chlorine Generators (utilizes salt)and Proteam Supreme

Maintenance Tools

We are forever updating our maintenance tools. It seems to me that many tools aren't made the same as they used to be and we are in search of that old quality. I'm sure you will love our selection. We carry a full line including:

  • Nets

Parts

Parts, parts, and more parts. There is a whole lot more than what you see in our retail store. Behind those doors that we run in and out of, we stock a full warehouse out back plus a full warehouse upstairs, plus three garages outside. Let's just say, we stock what we can. Obviously, we can't stock it all given all the different brands of pumps, filters, heaters, cleaners, lights, etc. out there but we do receive truck deliveries daily and, if you are in need of a part that we don't have in stock, we can most likely get it for you within a few days. We stock:

  • Fittings
  • Valves
  • Various Filter parts and plugs
  • Various Pump parts and seals and gaskets
  • Multiple heater parts
  • Polaris parts and accessories
  • Light bulbs
  • Pipe-flex and rigid
  • Internal Filter elements and manifolds
  • Multiport valves and parts


If you would like to fill out our equipment survey (click here, print out then fill out), we can file your equipment details on our computer so, if you should so need parts, we can help you to find the right items. It would also help us stay better stocked in certain items knowing what kind of demand might be out there.

Covers

We've got the right cover for you:

  • Standard Winter covers and full line of supplies
  • Solar covers and reels
  • Quality Safety Covers by Merlin and Loop Loc; also Baby-Loc Fences
  • Automatic Covers installed with the pool or after

Liners - Inground and Aboveground

We install literally hundreds of liners yearly! All installations are done by our own experienced crews. Come in and pick up a brochure or choose from the many color samples in our store. If you think it might be getting close to liner time...we encourage you to book early.

We sell liners from many manufacturers, including Merlin Industries. Here's a direct link to Merlin Industries' Vinyl Liners page.

We also stock above ground liners in our NH store; please contact Dave at 603-642-9909 for more information.

Cover pumps

We carried Little Giant cover pumps twenty-five years ago and guess what?...we still carry them now. They don't seem to wear out. We have three different sizes:

  • 1-AA-18 pumping 200 gph
  • 5MSP pumping 1200 gph
  • 5APCP also pumping 1200 gph but with an automatic shut-off, perfect for use with safety covers!

We also stock the small plastic parts attached to the pumps such as screen, impellers, and hose connectors.

Safety Equipment

Safety first! We carry a broad line of safety swim aids for the kids including vests, floatation swimsuits, floatation belts, back floats, arm bands, swim sweaters, and more. The packaging is conveniently labeled for you in level increments so you can follow a progression in teaching your child to swim.

We also have helpful Learn to Swim DVDs.

We carry safety signs, Life Hooks with poles, Safety Lines to separate the low end from the deep, USCG Approved Life Rings, and Rescue Tubes Baby-Loc safety fences. We have samples on display in our store. Available with or without installation.

Pool Alarms-Our most popular is the Pool Guard alarm followed by the Safety Turtle. We would be glad to give you information about either.

Safety Fences

We provide a number of selections including Baby-Loc Removable Fencing.

Equipment

We sell equipment of all makes and models. We would be happy to consult with you on which product would best suit your needs and your pool. It is important to size your equipment properly for your pool and it is more cost efficient not to oversize it. Some people are still under the impression that bigger is better in pump size and that's not always the case. Proper is always the best option. Please ask us about today's more energy efficient pumps. We carry:

  • Filters, pumps, and motors
  • Heaters and Heat Pumps
  • Diving Boards
  • Automatic cleaners
  • Lighting
  • Slides
  • Waterfalls
  • Floor Cleaning Systems and Water Valves
  • Automated Control Systems to run equipment
  • Chlorine Generators (utilizes salt)
  • Automated PH Balancing Systems
