Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	'
	Note 1 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Pool Corporation (the Company, which may be referred to as we, us or our) prepared the unaudited interim Consolidated Financial Statements following U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. As permitted under those rules, we have condensed or omitted certain footnotes and other financial information required for complete financial statements.  The Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments that are necessary for a fair presentation of our financial position and operating results including the elimination of all significant intercompany accounts and transactions among our wholly owned subsidiaries.
	A description of our significant accounting policies is included in our 2012 Annual Report on Form 10-K. You should read the interim Consolidated Financial Statements in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes in our Annual Report.  The results for our three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the expected results for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2013.
	Recent Accounting Pronouncements
	On January 1, 2013, we adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Update No. 2013-02, Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2013-02). Under the new standard we are required to disclose the effect on income statement line items from the reclassification of a component of accumulated other comprehensive income into net income. If a reclassification does not impact net income, we are required to disclose the resulting financial statement effects and reference the applicable accounting guidance. The adoption of this guidance did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations. We included the required disclosures in Note 4.
	Reclassifications
	For comparative purposes, we reclassified certain amounts in our 2012 financial statements to conform to the 2013 presentation. These changes included the reclassification of both our deferred tax balances and deferred tax valuation allowances between current and non‑current line items to reflect net presentation on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012. We also changed the presentation of deferred service charge income between Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and Receivables, net on the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2012.

Earnings Per Share	'
	Note 2 – Earnings Per Share
	We calculate basic earnings per share (EPS) by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding.  We include outstanding unvested restricted stock awards of our common stock in the basic weighted average share calculation.  Diluted EPS includes the dilutive effects of other share-based awards.  Stock options with exercise prices that are higher than the average market prices of our common stock for the periods presented are excluded from the diluted EPS calculation because their effect is anti-dilutive.
	The table below presents the computation of earnings per share, including the reconciliation of basic and diluted weighted average shares outstanding (in thousands, except EPS):

Acquisitions	'
	Note 3 – Acquisitions
	In May 2013, we acquired certain distribution assets of B. Shapiro Supply, LLC, a swimming pool and hardscape products distributor with one sales center location in Warminster, Pennsylvania. In March 2013, we acquired certain distribution assets of Swimming Pool Supply Center, Inc., a local swimming pool products distributor with one sales center location in Los Angeles, California. This sales center will operate as a satellite location to more efficiently serve our west Los Angeles customers.
	We completed our preliminary acquisition accounting for these acquisitions, subject to adjustments in accordance with the terms of the purchase agreements during the respective one year measurement periods.  These acquisitions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
	In February 2012, we acquired the distribution assets of Ideal Distributors Ltd., a regional swimming pool products distributor with four sales center locations in British Columbia, Canada.  In March 2012, we acquired the distribution assets of CCR Distribution, a swimming pool products distributor with one sales center in Ontario, Canada. We completed the acquisition accounting for each of our 2012 acquisitions.  These acquisitions did not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

Fair Value Measurements and Interest Rate Swaps	'
	Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements and Interest Rate Swaps
	Our assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the unrealized gains or losses on our interest rate swap contracts.  We use significant other observable market data or assumptions (Level 2 inputs as defined in the accounting guidance) that we believe market participants would use in pricing similar assets or liabilities, including assumptions about counterparty risk.  Our fair value estimates reflect an income approach based on the terms of the interest rate contracts and inputs corroborated by observable market data including interest rate curves.
	We have five interest rate swap contracts in place to reduce our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates on our unsecured syndicated senior credit facility (the Credit Facility).  These swaps convert the variable interest rate to a fixed interest rate on borrowings under the Credit Facility.  Each of these swap contracts terminates on October 19, 2016.  The following table provides additional details related to each of these swap contracts:
	Derivative	Effective Date		Notional	Fixed
				Amount	Interest
				(in millions)	Rate
	Interest rate swap 1	November 21, 2011		$25.00	1.19%
	Interest rate swap 2	November 21, 2011		$25.00	1.19%
	Interest rate swap 3	December 21, 2011		$50.00	1.10%
	Interest rate swap 4	January 17, 2012		$25.00	1.05%
	Interest rate swap 5	January 19, 2012		$25.00	0.99%
	We recognize any differences between the variable interest rate payments and the fixed interest rate settlements from our swap counterparties as an adjustment to interest expense over the life of the swaps.  We have designated these swaps as cash flow hedges and we record the changes in the estimated fair value of the swaps to Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) on our Consolidated Balance Sheets.  If our interest rate swaps became ineffective, we would immediately recognize the changes in the estimated fair value of our swaps in earnings.  Since inception, we have not recognized any gains or losses on these swaps through income and there has been no effect on income from hedge ineffectiveness.
	A portion of the change in the estimated fair value of our interest rate swap contracts between periods relates to future interest expense. Recognition of the change in fair value between periods attributable to accrued interest is reclassified from Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to Interest expense, net on the Consolidated Statements of Income. These amounts were not material in the first nine months of 2013.
	The table below presents the estimated fair value of our interest rate swap contracts (in thousands):
		Fair Value at
		September 30,
	Level 2	2013			2012
	Unrealized Losses on Interest Rate Swaps	$	(1,909	)	$	(3,650	)
	We include unrealized losses in Accrued expenses and other current liabilities and unrealized gains in Prepaid expenses and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
	Failure of our swap counterparties would result in the loss of any potential benefit to us under our swap contracts.  In this case, we would still be obligated to pay the variable interest payments underlying the Credit Facility.  Additionally, failure of our swap counterparties would not eliminate our obligation to continue to make payments under our existing swap contracts if we continue to be in a net pay position.
	The carrying values of cash, receivables, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments and the carrying value of long-term debt approximates fair value.  Our determination of the estimated fair value of long-term debt reflects a discounted cash flow model using our estimates, primarily those related to assumptions for borrowing rates (Level 3 inputs as defined in the accounting guidance).

Debt [Abstract]	'
Debt Disclosure [Text Block]	'
	Note 5 – Debt
	On September 20, 2013, we entered into a Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement and First Amendment to Subsidiary Guaranty Agreement (the Amendment) among us, as US Borrower, SCP Distributors Canada Inc., as Canadian Borrower, SCP Pool B.V., as Dutch Borrower, our subsidiary guarantors, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders. The Amendment amends certain terms of our existing unsecured syndicated senior credit facility (the Credit Facility) including extending the maturity date to September 20, 2018, increasing the borrowing capacity to $465.0 million from $430.0 million, and providing additional capacity under certain negative covenants, including indebtedness, liens, investments, sale of assets and dividends.
	The amendment replaces JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as syndication agent with each of Bank of America N.A. and Union Bank, N.A.. It also replaces JPMorgan Securities LLC as a joint lead arranger and joint bookrunner with each of Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Union Bank, N.A. Regions Bank and Capital One, N.A., each remain as a documentation agent.
	Our obligations under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by substantially all of our existing and future direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries.  The Credit Facility contains terms and provisions (including representations, covenants and conditions) and events of default customary for transactions of this type.  If we default under the Credit Facility, the lenders may terminate their obligations under the Credit Facility and may require us to repay all amounts.
	Revolving borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest, at our option, at either of the following and in each case plus an applicable margin:
	a.	a base rate, which is the highest of (i) the Wells Fargo Bank, National Association prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.500% and (iii) the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) Market Index Rate plus 1.000%; or
	b.	the LIBOR.
	Borrowings by the Canadian Borrower bear interest, at the Canadian Borrower’s option, at either of the following and in each case plus an applicable margin:
	a.	a base rate, which is the greatest of (i) the Canadian Reference Bank prime rate and (ii) the annual rate of interest equal to the sum of the Canadian Dealer Offered Rate (CDOR) plus 1.000%; or
	b.	the CDOR.
	Borrowings by the Dutch Borrower bear interest at LIBOR plus an applicable margin.
	The interest rate margins on the borrowings and letters of credit are based on our leverage ratio and will range from 1.150% to 1.625% on CDOR, LIBOR and swingline loans, and from 0.150% to 0.625% on Base Rate and Canadian Base Rate loans.   Borrowings under the swingline loans are based on the LIBOR Market Index Rate plus any applicable margin.  We are also required to pay an annual facility fee ranging from 0.10% to 0.25%, depending on our leverage ratio.
	This amendment did not have a material impact on our financial position, results of operations, or compliance with debt covenants as of and for the period ended September 30, 2013.

	Note 6 – Subsequent Event
	On October 11, 2013, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a two year accounts receivable securitization facility with a peak seasonal funding capacity of up to $120.0 million between March 1 and August 31 and up to $80.0 million between September 1 and February 28. Additional seasonal funding capacity of up to $40.0 million may be available, subject to agreement by the Purchasers, between April 1 and June 30.
	SCP Distributors LLC, Horizon Distributors, Inc., Superior Pool Products LLC and Poolfx Supply LLC (collectively, the Originators) entered into a Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement dated as of October 11, 2013 with Superior Commerce LLC (the Securitization Subsidiary) under which the Originators agreed to sell and, as applicable, contribute, all of their right, title and interest in and to their trade receivables and certain related rights to the Securitization Subsidiary without representation, warranty or recourse as to the collectability of the receivables or the creditworthiness of the obligors. The Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement contains terms and conditions (including representations, covenants and conditions precedent) customary for transactions of this type.
	The Securitization Subsidiary, as Seller, also entered into a Receivables Purchase Agreement dated as of October 11, 2013 with SCP Distributors LLC, as the Servicer, the purchasers from time to time (the Purchasers), The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., New York Branch, as the Victory Group Co-Agent and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as the Wells Group Co-Agent and as Administrative Agent, under which the Securitization Subsidiary may sell or otherwise transfer to the Purchasers variable undivided percentage interests in the receivables and related rights acquired from the Originators. The Receivables Purchase Agreement contains terms and conditions (including representations, covenants and conditions precedent) customary for transactions of this type. Additionally, an amortization event will occur if we fail to maintain a maximum average total leverage ratio (average total funded debt/EBITDA) of 3.25 to 1 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio (EBITDAR/cash interest expense plus rental expense) of 2.25 to 1.
	We guarantee all of the obligations of the Originators and the Servicer under both the Receivables Sale and Contribution Agreement and the Receivables Purchase Agreement in accordance with a Performance Undertaking. The Performance Undertaking does not, however, guarantee collectability of the receivables or any obligations of the Securitization Subsidiary to the Purchasers.
	This agreement did not have an impact on our financial position or results of operations for the period ended September 30, 2013. We are currently assessing the impact of this agreement on our financial statement disclosures, but do not expect it to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.
