Going the Distance – Sunset Pools Custom Designs Celebrates 25 years

Sunset Pools owner Guy Vaughn has lived in the Santa Clarita Valley since he was five years old.  Like many of us, he came with his parents to enjoy the prosperous life Santa Clarita had to offer – a quiet little retreat away from Los Angeles and the hustle and bustle of the city.
“After graduating from Canyon High School, I went straight into the pool business.  It was something I enjoyed and I saw an opportunity to make a living working outdoors.  With the hot summers in Santa Clarita, I thought this is a business I can succeed in,” said Guy.
And almost 40 years later, Guy’s experience has been shared with his sons Justin and Josh.  Justin runs construction on their projects and Josh maintains the monthly service accounts.  They have 12 years experience in business and will be the future of Sunset Pools Custom Designs.
“After spending my youth building my expertise and my business, I enjoy running the sales and letting my sons build the pools. With so many new homes being built and the size of yards reducing, we are seeing a new trend in pool design.  Small play pools and ‘spools’ are the new way to go,” says Guy.  “ We can provide a much more cost effective pool that allows you to enjoy your investment more often in the year.  Heating can be run from solar power with panels added to your roof that specifically heat the pool, and the warranty is pretty great too.”
And with many advances over the years, it’s great to know when choose Sunset Pools, you’re working with professionals that value knowledge and work smarter not harder.  Variable Speed Pumps have replaced the older single and double speed models as well.
“When we talk about pool renovations, repairs and retrofits that reduce a pool’s energy consumption, the focus typically turns to the pump, because it consumes more energy than any other piece of pool equipment. Plus, a well-designed variable-speed pump can reduce the energy costs of running a swimming pool by up to 90 percent.  Pair that with solar heating and we can provide a retreat for your family that is not only cost effective, but will last the test of time – with minimal maintenance over the years.  We help you protect your investment because we care about the work we do.  It’s that simple for me.  Our pools are our calling card, and the word of mouth from our clients is what has supported my business for all of these years.  My family and I are proud Santa Clarita business owners,” said Guy Vaughn.
It’s no wonder to me why Sunset Pools Custom Design is a staple in Santa Clarita.  Guy’s expertise, passion, and drive have been defining forces in creating the successful business he runs today.
