Who we are

Real Experience. Real Product Knowledge.

Aqua Terra Backyard was founded in 2023 by Eric Borden on Long Island with a simple idea: a supply company should do more than put products on a website. It should understand what it sells and be able to help customers figure out what they actually need.

That philosophy has shaped the company ever since.

In 2025, Eric's business partner Nick Mooney joined Aqua Terra Backyard, bringing more than a decade of pool and spa industry experience along with CPO certification. Together, they have continued building ATB around a combination of product knowledge, strong manufacturer and distributor relationships, and the kind of practical guidance that becomes especially important when dealing with specialized equipment.

Today, Aqua Terra Backyard supplies everything from individual replacement components to complete equipment and systems across the pool, spa, fireplace, outdoor heating, grilling, and outdoor-living industries.

Just as importantly, we help customers navigate them.

Our team provides guidance when you are comparing complete equipment, replacing an existing system, identifying an unknown part, checking compatibility, working around a discontinued model, or trying to understand what a manufacturer specification actually means for your application.

We work with homeowners, contractors, service professionals, installers, and commercial customers throughout the country, but our approach remains personal. When you contact Aqua Terra Backyard, our goal isn't simply to sell you something. It's to help you get to the right solution.

From a small replacement part to the equipment at the center of an entire backyard project, we believe the people supplying it should know what they're talking about.

CPO Certified

Why customers come back

Four things we work hard to be known for.

Real product knowledge

Specifications, compatibility, model supersessions and manufacturer documentation are what we handle every day, backed by a decade of hands-on field experience and CPO certification.

Manufacturers the trade trusts

We work with established manufacturers and distribution partners across the pool, spa, hearth, outdoor living, heating and grilling industries, and we source through channels that hold up.

Nationwide, freight handled

Heaters, hot tubs and fire pits ship free to the 48 contiguous states. If something arrives damaged or wrong, the return freight is on us, not you.

A real person on the phone

Call during business hours and you'll reach someone who can pull up your model and serial number and give you a clear, specific answer: which part fits, why it fits, and what it costs delivered.

Two very different customers, one phone number

Homeowners and trade professionals need different things from a supplier. We're set up to do right by both.

Homeowners

A pump to replace, a heater to size, or a backyard you're finally finishing. Tell us what you're working with and we'll help you land on the right unit.

  • Help identifying equipment from a model or serial number
  • Direct-to-public pricing with a price match guarantee
  • Referral to a certified installer if you'd rather not DIY

Pros & procurement

Pool and spa service companies, hearth installers, landscape and pool builders, GCs and commercial procurement. They need the right SKU, on time, with accurate specs behind it.

  • Multi-unit and project quotes for residential and commercial work
  • Cross-referencing for discontinued and superseded models
  • Tax-exempt purchasing: ask and we'll send the form

Not sure which part or unit you need?

Send us the model and serial number. You'll find it on the unit's data plate, the box, or the manual. We'll confirm what fits, flag anything that's been superseded, and get you a delivered price.
