Frequently Asked Questions
What is pool automation?
Pool automation connects compatible pool equipment to a central control system. Depending on the setup, it can help manage functions such as filtration, heating, chlorination, lighting, scheduling, remote access and water monitoring.
What pool equipment can be automated?
Compatible pumps, filtration systems, chlorinators, pool heating, lighting, valves and selected pool or spa functions can often be integrated into an automation system. The exact options depend on the equipment installed and the automation system being used.
Can pool automation be added to an existing pool?
