Planning Pool Automation for Your Equipment

Coordinating Pool & Spa Functions

Automation can bring compatible pumps, lights, heaters, spa modes and schedules into one control system. Start with the functions you want to manage together, then confirm which are supported by the equipment and controls selected for your project. Phone control should be discussed in relation to that specific setup.

Assessing Equipment Compatibility

Before choosing an upgrade, review the existing control panel and the pumps, heating and lighting equipment you intend to keep. Share equipment details and explain how the pool is currently operated. Ask which components can be integrated, which may need changes, and what is included in the proposed scope rather than assuming that all existing equipment will work with a new controller.

Heating, Lighting & Water Features

Discuss how you want heating, lighting and spa operation coordinated with the rest of the pool. If the project includes pool water features, include their control needs in the equipment discussion. Nova's new-construction process includes planning controls for pool, spa and water features according to the design; the functions available depend on the selected system and compatible equipment.

Existing Pools & New Construction

For an existing pool, an automation upgrade can be considered alongside equipment changes or a pool renovation. Identify which components will remain and which are part of the upgrade. With new pool construction, discuss automation during equipment planning so the controls and intended pool functions can be considered together.

Questions to Discuss Before Selecting a System

• Which pool and spa functions do you want to control or schedule?
• Which existing equipment will remain, and what compatibility needs to be confirmed?
• What phone-control functions are available for the proposed setup?
• Are heating, lighting or water-feature changes part of the same project?
• What equipment changes, configuration and operating guidance are included in the scope?
