Alpharetta, Ga. — Advantis Technologies has contributed $1,000 to the Georgia APSP Drought Relief Fund.

Advanits responded to the call from the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP) to join the fight for the construction and water rights of pool contractors across the state, who are facing false perceptions and governmental interference with the use of water as it relates to construction permits, filling new pools, renovations, service and repairs.

Georgia’s APSP leadership endorsed a three-layered approach to combating these false perceptions. The group plans lobbying efforts, public relations, and economic impact studies and education. This work is being funded by a combination of APSP’s budget and generous contributions from pool industry members including Advantis Technologies.

“There was no question that our company would support the efforts of the APSP regarding this important issue,” said Michael Moore, Vice President of Marketing. “Because Advantis is based just outside the Metro Atlanta area, we see the effects of the drought first-hand and will do all we can to help the livelihoods of those affected.”

Advantis Technologies manufactures some of the most popular specialty products for swimming pool and spa water care. The Advantis product lines Leisure Time, GLB, Robarb, Applied Biochemists and Ultima are sold by professional pool and spa retailers throughout the United States.
