Pool Automation
New systems, upgrades and repairs with a compatibility assessment first.

Why it matters
Control from your phone, without guessing on compatibility.
Automation puts the pump schedule, lighting, heater, salt system, and valve settings in one app, so you can start a pool for guests, switch to spa mode, or check on things while you're away instead of walking out to the equipment pad.
Not every existing setup can be automated as-is. Older pumps, valves, and panels sometimes need an upgrade before they'll work with a modern control system, which is why we assess what's already there before recommending anything.
- Manually starting the pump and adjusting valves by hand every time
- Wanting to check or change settings while away from the house
- Running a variable-speed pump on a fixed schedule that doesn't match actual usage
- Multiple valves that need manual switching between pool and spa modes
- An existing automation panel that's aging or no longer responding reliably
What's included
What a pool automation project covers.
From assessment through app setup.
- Compatibility assessment of existing equipment
- New automation system design and installation
- Upgrades to existing systems
- Repair of existing automation
- Phone and app control setup
Most app-based control needs a home Wi-Fi connection reaching the equipment pad. Signal reach is checked as part of the assessment.
Good to know
What may require additional approval.
- Equipment replacement without compatibility review
- Warranty on third-party equipment not supplied by OneBlu
Pricing
Quoted after assessment
We won't claim compatibility before reviewing your existing equipment. An inspection and quote come first.
What affects the price:
- Whether existing equipment is automation-ready or needs upgrading first
- How many pieces of equipment are being brought onto the system, pump, lights, heater, valves
- New installation versus upgrading or repairing an existing panel
Questions
Common questions about pool automation.
It depends on whether your existing equipment is automation-ready, how many pieces of equipment (pump, heater, lights, valves) are being connected, and whether this is a new install versus an upgrade or repair. Pricing is confirmed after the compatibility assessment, not before.
It depends on what's already installed. Some pumps, valves, and panels work with modern automation as-is; others need an upgrade first. We check compatibility before recommending anything, rather than assuming everything needs to be replaced.
Typically the pump schedule and speed, pool and spa valve switching, lighting, and heater settings, depending on what's connected to the system. The exact list depends on which equipment is brought onto automation during your project.
We repair existing automation systems, not just install new ones. If a panel or control is malfunctioning, that's diagnosed the same way as a new project, an assessment first, then a quote.
Most app-based control needs a home Wi-Fi connection that reaches the equipment pad. If signal is weak out there, that's checked during the assessment before installation.
