Hello my name is Dustin Cleaver, and I am the proud owner of Pool Fool.  I'm 39, and have two beautiful daughters.  I was born and raised in Minden, La.  I graduated MHS with honors in 1996.  I then went on to obtain an Associate's Degree in Industrial Instrumentation.  After school, I wound up taking an I&E position in Baton Rouge.  It was there that I spent the better part of a decade working, the last few years of which I spent doing pool work as well.   A friend of mine who owned a local pool company often had me help him wire up various installations.  Oddly enough, there were quite a few a parallels between pool controls and the industrial controls I'd grown accustomed to seeing in the plants and refineries.

Then in 2009 when the economy took a dive, my hours at work were cut in half.  In 2010 we were forced to sell our home in Baton Rouge.  What most saw as a problem, I saw as an opportunity...to move back home to Minden.   Unhappy with the job prospects the Arklatex had to offer a man with my expertise, I decided to open my own pool company.  I decided on Pool Fool as the business name because most people say I'm foolish for choosing it over my career in instrumentation.  Plus its pretty doggone catchy if I do say so myself!  Anyway, eight years later and we're still going strong!  

So if you own a pool in the Minden or Haughton area, give us a call.  We would love to be of service to you!
