Our Pool Safety Cover History
Still local, still keeping B.C. families safe. Pool Patrol’s founder and CEO, Allan Horwood grew up in B.C. and has been around water his entire life, from long days spent by the family pool, to living the beach lifestyle and taking his first job with a pool supply company in 1984.
In 1995 it was time to set out on his own, and Pool Patrol was born. What started as a commercial and residential pool company morphed into a specialization in pool safety covers.
The next ten years took Pool Patrol to the next level, with an exclusive agreement to be sole distributor in western Canada for a major North American pool cover manufacturer.
By 2005 Pool Patrol was leading the industry, selling more swimming pool auto covers in B.C. than were being sold across the rest of Canada, proudly representing the industries fastest growing cover manufacturer, Automatic Pool Covers inc.
As founder, president, and a father of two himself, Allan takes pool safety to heart, and is passionate about providing customers with the service and peace of mind they deserve.
