Swimming pool automation systems have become the norm among homeowners, and they’re now more affordable and easier to install than they’ve ever been. Having your pool automated can make its maintenance and operation much easier. With a few clicks on your mobile device, you can keep tabs on your pool to ensure it’s always in tip top shape. 

Here are a few things that can be controlled with pool automation. 

Adjust the Pool Water Temperature

If your Austin swimming pool is heated, you can change the temperature up or down as required without having to be anywhere near your pool. If it’s a bit cool one evening, simply tap your phone and your pool water’s temperature will be adjusted accordingly.

Dim or Change the Color of Your Pool Lights

If you’ve got lights installed in and around your pool, you can dim them or make them brighter from your smartphone. You can also remotely change their color, if applicable.

Turn the Pump On or Off

Swimming pool automation will also work to turn the pump on or off as desired. This can help save energy and the costs associated with it when running the pump is not necessary. And if you happen to be away from home all day long and forgot to turn the pump off, you can make the adjustments from wherever you happen to be. 

Swimming Pool Safety

You can install monitors or alarms in your pool that will alert you if anyone is too close to the pool when no adult is around, or if someone accidentally falls in. This is especially helpful if you’ve got small children or pets at home.
