The chlorine shortage is a real problem that has become a topic of much debate in the pool industry today. How many of us actually understand what happened when the factories were forced to shut down? Our guest explains why the shortage is taking place and provides an alternative perspective from the manufacturing angle. John Bokor has been with Haviland for eight years. He came onboard as the Regional Sales Manager for the company covering the Midwest. This year, in the wake of COVID-19, he took on the role of Director of Sales for the pool division. John is also involved with some of the marketing for the company, teaches classes at trade shows, and has contributed heavily to the Haviland brand by starring as the “Legend” on videos featured on the website. Listen in as John shares how he came to be the face of Haviland and picked up the moniker “Legend” in the process, the challenges posed to the industry by both the plant fire and the drastically shifting economy in 2020, and alternatives to chlorine amid the shortage and how to start educating customers on this situation. John Bokor &amp; Haviland Links: If you enjoyed this episode, check out the photos, show notes, all the links referenced, and follow John &amp; Haviland by going to the episode webpage here: Episode Webpage Sponsor Links:Pentair Pool and Electrical Products You can follow Pool Chasers below:Pool Chasers Website  Pool Chasers Instagram Pool Chasers Facebook Pool Chasers FB Group

Episode 121: How to Combat the Chlorine Shortage by Reducing the Amount Needed and Using Alternative Methods with John Bokor

John Bokor is an award winning landscape and still life artist. He grew up in Sydney and lives in Bulli, NSW. He has had over a dozen solo exhibitions and his work is held in many public and private collections. Equally prolific in drawing and painting, Bokor’s art depicts everyday life and his environment with an emotion and vibrancy which makes the viewer take notice. He has won several art prizes including the NSW Parliament Plein Air Painting Prize and Eutick Memorial Still Life Award and he has been finalist in many others. In our interview, Bokor talks about his education in Sydney and travels overseas where he was inspired by Bonnard’s bath paintings, we ponder over whether you can ever say what makes a piece of art ‘good’, he reveals much about his process and he explains his motivational ‘anti pep-talk’ which he gives his art students. John Bokor’s solo show at King Street Gallery opens on 8 November and continues until 3 December 2016. You can see a short video of Bokor’s sketchbooks below.
