Smart Backyard & Pool Automation Systems
Coordinate Compatible Pool Equipment, Heating and Lighting Controls
Plan a Pool Automation Upgrade Around Your Equipment
Start with the controls and equipment already installed. Send the controller brand and model, photos of the equipment pad, and a description of the functions you want to manage. Tell us whether you need a new system, help with existing controls or an upgrade alongside a pump, heater or lighting replacement.
Explore the Control and Equipment Options
Learn about Poolside Tech The Attendant (read our automation buying guide and pump and heater upgrade guide), Pentair, Jandy and Hayward. We review compatibility with the specific models on your pad before recommending a control setup.
Planning several upgrades? Coordinate a pool pump replacement, pool heating and lighting with the automation scope.
What to Include in an Automation Inquiry
Include your city, controller model, connected equipment models and any app or display error messages. Tell us which functions are working and which need attention. For a new installation, list the pool, spa, heating, lighting or water-feature controls you want to discuss.
Discuss your equipment project with our Jupiter team at 14701 Walgreens Dr, Unit A, Jupiter, FL 33478. Showroom hours: Monday, Friday 9am, 5pm and Saturday 10am, 3pm.

Why A Smarter Backyard Is Worth It
Start with the functions you want to control: pool and spa modes, pump schedules, temperature settings, lighting or water features. The available controls, alerts and remote-access features depend on the selected system and the equipment connected to it.
Discuss which existing components can remain and which may need changes for the proposed setup. Ask for a demonstration of normal operation, schedules, alerts and manual controls, along with an explanation of any app, network or subscription requirements. Energy use and maintenance needs depend on your equipment, settings and operating conditions.
Poolside Tech, Pentair, Jandy & Hayward Controls
The best control system is usually the one that matches the equipment already on your pad, which keeps wiring simple and cost down. We work with Poolside Tech, Pentair, Jandy, and Hayward control systems and assess compatibility before recommending a new installation or retrofit. Available app controls, scheduling, and connected features depend on the selected system and your equipment. Ask us about coordinating your automation with MOOV, Madimack, AquaStar, Raypak, AquaCal, and PAL Lighting equipment.
App-First Control For Newer Pads
For pools already running Jandy equipment, the iAquaLink platform controls temperature, filtration, and lighting from phone, tablet, or computer, and integrates with a wide range of gear. It is the natural fit when your pumps or heaters are that brand.
Single-Panel Control For Simpler Wiring
The Pentair EasyTouch system manages all pool and spa functions from one panel or app, using a single load-center that keeps installation straightforward. Paired with the ScreenLogic interface, it extends to phones and smart speakers, and it is the practical choice when that equipment is already on the pad.
Advanced Scheduling For Larger Systems
The Hayward OmniLogic system runs temperature, pumps, lights, and water features from any device, integrates across equipment brands, and offers deeper scheduling and energy-saving modes. It fits that equipment and larger systems that need more scheduling control.
Efficiency Upgrades That Do The Heavy Lifting
Automation is only half the value. The equipment it controls is where efficiency actually comes from, and two upgrades move the needle most.
Variable-Speed Pumps
A variable-speed pump is the single most effective way to cut pool energy use, often reducing pump consumption by 50 to 80 percent versus an old single-speed pump. Matched to correctly sized plumbing, it runs quieter, circulates water more evenly, and takes strain off the whole system so everything lasts longer.
Inverter Heat Pumps
Inverter heat pumps hold water temperature steady by adjusting output to demand instead of cycling fully on and off. They run whisper-quiet and warm the water far more efficiently than a traditional heater, which is why they have become the default choice for year-round Florida pools.
Automated Salt And Sanitizing
Automated salt and sanitizing systems dose based on live sensor readings rather than guesswork. That keeps water balanced and safe, cuts chlorine demand, and removes most of the hands-on chemistry from your week.
A Pump Comparison Worth Understanding
The pump is where an upgrade pays back fastest, so it helps to see the two side by side. A single-speed pump runs at full power every hour it operates, which is loud, hard on equipment, and wasteful. A variable-speed pump tunes its speed to the task, running slow and quiet for everyday filtration and ramping up only when a feature needs it. For a pool that runs year-round, the variable-speed pump is the right call for nearly every homeowner, and most notice the difference the first full month after switching.
Fixing A System That Never Worked Right
Not every project is a fresh install. Plenty of pools already have automation that is glitchy, was never configured correctly, or runs on an aging controller that keeps dropping its schedule. We diagnose and repair these systems for every major equipment brand, and we can troubleshoot many issues remotely before a truck ever rolls.
Common fixes include a failed load-center relay, a controller that will not hold schedules, an app connection that dropped after a router change, and a salt cell or flow sensor throwing false readings. When a system is genuinely beyond repair, we say so and recommend a replacement rather than charging to chase a dead board.
What It Looks Like Day To Day
Automation earns itself back in small moments. Warm the spa from your phone while you are still at dinner, so it is ready when you pull in. Set the pool to be guest-ready before weekend visitors arrive. Run filtration during the hottest part of the day instead of guessing at timer settings. Drop the lights into an evening scene without leaving your chair. None of it is dramatic, and that is the point: the backyard simply does what you want, when you want it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Automation Be Added To An Existing Pool?
Yes. We retrofit automation onto existing pools of any brand, not only pools we built. We assess your current pump, heater, and wiring, then install the control system that best matches your equipment.
Which Control System Is The Right One?
The right system usually matches the equipment already on your pad, which keeps wiring simple. We fit iAquaLink to Jandy pads, Pentair EasyTouch to Pentair pads, and Hayward OmniLogic to Hayward pads and larger systems, and we recommend by fit rather than kickback.
Do Automation Systems Really Save Energy?
Yes. Optimized run times combined with a variable-speed pump can cut pump energy use by 50 to 80 percent. In a climate where pools run year-round, most homeowners notice the drop on their first full billing cycle.
How Long Does An Installation Take?
Most single-component upgrades install in one to three days. A full automation retrofit takes longer depending on the wiring and plumbing involved, which we confirm during the on-site assessment.
What If The WiFi Is Weak At The Equipment Pad?
We check signal strength at the pad during the site visit and add a mesh extender or a wired access point where needed, so the controller stays reliably connected and the app works every time.
Can I Control Everything From One App?
Yes. A single system controls the pump, heater, pool and spa settings, water features, and connected lighting from one app, on schedules or on demand, with freeze and fault alerts included.
Does Automation Work With Alexa Or Google Home?
On supported controllers, yes. The major platforms offer voice-assistant integration, so you can trigger scenes and adjust settings by voice alongside the app.
My System Is Glitchy: Can You Fix It Instead Of Replacing It?
Often, yes. We diagnose and repair misconfigured or aging systems for every major brand, and can resolve many issues remotely. If a system is truly beyond repair, we tell you honestly rather than chasing a dead board.
