               NOTES TO INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                   (unaudited)

1.  This information is unaudited; however, in the opinion of the Company's
management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results
for the periods presented have been included.  The results for the period
ended March 31, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the entire year.  These financial statements, notes and analyses
should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited annual
financial statements for the year ended December 31, 1999, included in
its 1999 Annual Report to Shareholders.

2.  Net income (loss) per share is calculated using the weighted average
number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the
periods presented.  (See Note 5)

3.  Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or market, determined on
a first in, first out (FIFO) basis, and consist of the following.

</TABLE>

4.  The Company has a line of credit agreement with Silicon Valley Bank,
which line of credit allows the Company to borrow the lesser of $1,000,000
or an amount determined by a formula applied to accounts receivable.
Unused borrowing capacity was $268,500 at March 31, 2000.  Amounts
borrowed bear interest at prime rate plus 1.5% per annum and are secured
by substantially all the assets of the Company.  This line of credit
expires on June 30, 2000.

In addition to the line of credit, the Company has a 36-month term loan
available in the amount of $500,000 bearing interest at prime plus 1.8%.
At March 31, 2000, the Company had an outstanding balance of $472,300 on
this loan.

5.  Net Income Per Share

Basic earnings per share were calculated as follows:

<TABLE>
                                              Quarter Ended March 31,

Earnings (loss) per share               	$   	(0.02)         $    	0.05

</TABLE>

Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing net income by
the weighted average number of shares issued and outstanding.


Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

Diluted earnings per share were calculated as follows:

<TABLE>
                                           Quarter Ended March 31,

dilution                           $   	(0.02)              $    	0.04

</TABLE>

At March 31, 2000, options and warrants for the purchase of 571,700
shares of common stock at prices ranging from $0.125 to $0.625 were
antidilutive and therefore not included in the computation of diluted
earnings per share.

                   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
                                  (Unaudited)

Results of Operations

Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2000 decreased by 10.5% to
$2,722,100 in 2000 from $3,039,900 in 1999.  This decrease was due to
decreased unit sales of the Company's IceStorT products partially offset
by increased unit sales of the Company's pool products.

Cost of goods sold was relatively stable in absolute dollars at $1,748,300
in the first quarter of 2000 compared with $1,772,200 in the first quarter
of 1999 while increasing from 58.3% of net sales to 64.2% of net sales
from the first quarter of 1999 to the first quarter of 2000.  This increase
in cost of goods sold as

Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

a percentage of net sales was due primarily to the result of allocating
fixed overhead expenses to a decreased sales number along with increased
sales of relatively lower margin pool products and decreased sales of
relatively higher margin pool products.

Marketing and selling expenses were increased slightly in absolute dollars
at $537,800 in the first quarter of 2000 compared with $529,100 in the
first quarter of 1999 while increasing from 17.4% of net sales to
19.8% of net sales  in the first quarter of 2000 due mainly to
costs relating to the recently opened Company office located in
Tampa.

General and administrative expenses increased slightly to $406,800 in the
first quarter of 2000 (14.9% of sales) compared with $368,300 (12.1% of
sales) in the same quarter in 1999.  These increases were due mainly to
costs related to operating the recently opened Company office in Tampa.

Research and development expenses increased to $117,900 (4.3% of net sales)
in 2000 from $101,700 (3.3% of net sales) in the first quarter of 1999
due mainly to an increase in the number of engineering projects which are
targeted on introducing new and improved products in the next few years.

Net interest expense decreased to $6,300 (0.2% of net sales) in the first
quarter of 2000 from $24,500 (0.8% of net sales) in the first quarter of
1999.  This decrease was due primarily to paying off the Company's
subordinated debt in the third quarter of 1999.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company's cash position increased slightly from $64,800 at 1999 fiscal
year end to $97,200 at March 31, 2000 principally due to an increase in
bank borrowings along with issuance of stocks partially offset by purchases
of fixed assets along with an increase in accounts receivable.

At March 31, 2000, the Company's accounts payable and other accrued expenses
had increased to $1,159,600 from $802,500 at December 31, 1999.  This
increase is primarily due to decreased cash flow during the first quarter
of 2000 as a result of the Company's "Early Buy" program for Above Ground
Pool systems.

At March 31, 2000, the Company's net accounts receivable had increased to
$2,091,400 from $1,752,000 at December 31, 1999 due mainly to the Company's
"Early Buy" program for Above Ground Pool systems.

At March 31, 2000, the Company's net inventories had increased to $1,113,900
from $1,041,600 at December 31, 1999 due mainly to sales being lower than
planned during the first quarter of 2000.

At March 31, 2000 the Company's current ratio was 1.42 to 1 compared with
1.81 to 1 at December 31, 1999.  The Company had working capital of
$1,090,900 at March 31, 2000 compared with $1,487,000 at December 31, 1999.
Total assets exceeded total liabilities by $3,133,900 at March 31, 2000
compared with $3,127,400 at December 31, 1999.

The Company intends to relocate during the next six months and has purchased
land on which it will build a new manufacturing facility.  The Company
expects to realize cost savings in the year 2001 and beyond as a result of
this move.

At March 31, 2000, total bank debt (line of credit plus term loan) had
increased to $1,203,800 from $461,500 at December 31, 1999 due mainly to
borrowing to acquire the land in Chico, CA on which the Company intends to
build a 50,000 square foot headquarters and manufacturing building.
The building is

Part I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION (continued)

expected to be ready for occupancy by September 2000 and will be financed
by Butte Community Bank, Chico, CA (see Note 8).

The Company believes that its cash flow from operations along with its
available line of credit will be sufficient to support operations during
the next twelve months.
