What Pool and Hot Tub Alliance does
Mission
The alliance is organized as a business league to promote safe, healthful and enjoyable usage of pools, hot tubs and recreational water facilities and to promote the pool and spa industry generally.
As stated on its FY2024 Form 990.
Programs
On its FY2023 return the organization reported a significant change in how it conducts a program.
During the year, the research and statistic program was taken over by pool and hot tub foundation, a related organization.
Its own explanation, from Schedule O of that return (Part III, line 3).
Advocacy and standards: the advocacy program engages federal, congressional, state and local governments to advocate for phta interests, represent industry initiatives, and develop impactful relationships with decision makers. The standards program develops nationally recognized and accredited safety and industry standards guiding manufacturing and construction of goods and services in the swimming pool and hot tub industry
Certification: the alliance develops and administers exams that test whether a professional has the skills and training needed to manage and maintain the complexities of building, installing, maintaining, or servicing pools, spas, or hot tubs, and issues certifications to professionals who have passed the exams and committed to ongoing professional development and recertification.
Marketing and communication: the alliance serves as the voice of the industry, providing information about the safe and healthful use of industry products to consumers, delivering aquatic safety information to the public, and promoting its industry members to the public.
The 3 programs described on its FY2023 Form 990, listed largest first by expense.
The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $10M to $15M (+39%).
How it's funded, over time
Each bar is one year's revenue split into where it came from, and every bar is the same height — these are shares, not amounts, so a year that raised twice as much looks the same size. Hover a bar for the split.
Government-grant reliance: 2021 8%. Grants only. Government contracts and fees sit inside program revenue.
Surplus & reserves
Operating surplus or deficit each year, and months of liquidity in hand. 3 of the last 7 reported years ran a deficit.

Leadership and staff
The officers, directors, trustees and key employees listed on each return. Joined and no longer listed compare each filing with the year before, matching people by surname and first initial; a year after a gap, or a roster under three people, has no comparison.
