The New, Mobile-Friendly RecSupply.com has launched!

I am excited to announce that RecSupply.com has been upgraded! Why am I excited, you ask? Since RecSupply.com launched in 1996, it has always been my goal to make shopping on our website user friendly and easy to navigate. As a small, family run business, it can be challenging to keep up with the pace of the evolution of online marketing. This newest iteration of our site makes huge strides toward making shopping RecSupply.com easier than ever for commercial aquatics buyers.

Improved Search

Our search tool is more robust than ever before. In the past, searching our site required very precise search terms. Our new site search will provide more relevant products in the results and allow multiple terms with much better likelihood that you will succeed finding what you are looking for.

Mobile Friendly

Our new site is built with responsive design, meaning that shoppers on phones and tablets will get an experience catered to their device. Touch screen users will enjoy the larger photo and text links, improved menus and modern styling.

Better Promotions

With our new website, we are better equipped to communicate important offers, such as our current 2015 Winter Sale and our Specials and Closeouts section. Plus, if you place an order for a closeout item and you order a greater quantity than we have on hand, the website will let you know before you place your order.

Better Shipping Calculation

Calculation of our freight charges has been really easy the last couple of years with our $7.95 flat rate for orders under $100 and free shipping for orders over $100. But there are a few products that we simply can't ship free and still offer our best prices in print. So now, if you order items that are not eligible for free freight on our website, or if you ship to a location where we cannot ship for free, you will know at checkout. And our friendly staff will always get your confirmation of any shipping charges that might apply before proceeding with your order.

The Future...

We are set up to bring additional improvements and content in the coming weeks and months. One of the things that isn't quite ready to launch yet is the ability to customize certain products (for example, identifying frame and strap color of casual furniture). So, in the meantime, you may specify any colors, sizes, specifications or instructions in the comments when placing your order. If we have any questions or if additional information is required to process your order, we will contact you right away.

While we continue building a better experience for you, please let us know if you have any comments or suggestions. The only way we can get better is if we get feedback from you. Thank you for an amazing first 20 years online! I look forward to what the next 20 years brings.
