Remote pool monitoring: what can be measured and what you need
Community and public pools must keep pH and disinfectant in range and record the checks. A dosing controller corrects the water; remote monitoring lets whoever maintains it see every pool, get an alert when something drifts and keep the records without going there.
What to monitor
- pH: outside its range, chlorine loses effect and bathers notice it in their eyes and skin.
- Chlorine: measured by the dosing controller's probe. If the controller has Modbus, its reading can be sent to the platform.
- Water temperature: for comfort and for heated pools.
- Balance tank and pumps: a low level or a stopped pump means no filtration, even if the water still looks fine.
- Plant room floor: a leak or a flood next to the pumps and the chemical tanks.
Dosing controller or monitoring?
Dosing and control equipment from brands such as Idegis, AstralPool, Hayward, Bayrol or Seko measures and corrects pH and chlorine in each pool, and some of them have their own app. Monitoring does a different job: it brings every pool, from any brand, onto one platform together with the plant room, and sends the alert to whoever is on duty.
| Dosing controller | Monitoring platform | |
|---|---|---|
| Job | Measures and corrects pH and chlorine | Watches, records and alerts |
| Plant room | Not covered | Pumps, level and leaks |
| Many pools | One app per brand | Every pool on one platform |
Records and alerts
Every reading is stored with its date and time and can be exported, which helps keep the pool's control records. Alerts go by email, SMS, WhatsApp, voice call or push notification in the iOS and Android app, with thresholds per pool.
The platform runs on AWS (Frankfurt for Europe, United States for the rest of the world) or on your own servers, and maintenance companies can offer it under their own brand with the white-label option.
