About us

We Are Independent 

Champion Pool Supply started as a family business established in 1957 by Richard and Sandra Gebhardt that has served a local, regional and national market for pools and pool supplies to residents, dealers, and installers, it was known for almost six decades as Central Pool Supply, Inc.   The business began in the Gebhardt’s garage innovating ways to meet the needs of pool builders and home owners.  The company is now owned by Richard and Sandra's daughter and her husband, Jill and Joel Dryden.

Today Champion Pool Supply remains one of the few family-owned independent distributors of pool supplies in the nation.  We are still committed to innovating ways to meet the needs of our customers, and "finding as many ways to say 'yes' as possible."

The pool industry needs a reliable alternative to corporate distribution.
