"Counsilman-Hunsaker was an outstanding pool consultant firm. They listened to our needs and wishes and put those needs and wishes into a magnificent showpiece that is a state-of-the-art space that works for all aspects of our college and community life. In my mind, Counsilman-Hunsaker is the #1 pool consulting firm in the country."

"Counsilman-Hunsaker was able to take our vision of what we hoped this new aquatic center could be and far exceeded our expectations. They have been prompt in answering questions and thorough in explaining the reasons behind every answer. We took a very outside the box type of approach and concept because we did not want to limit our project in any way for our new outdoor aquatic center."

Frasier is extremely happy with the work that Counsilman-Hunsaker provided with the design, during construction, and post construction as they provided ample training for the Wellness/Fitness staff in addition to the maintenance/facilities team. And for me personally, as an Owner’s Rep/Project Manager, I would highly recommend Counsilman-Hunsaker and will seek their services if and when I get another aquatic project.
