Pool automation puts the pump, heater, valves, lights, and water features under one controller you can run from a phone. Most of our automation work is a retrofit on an existing Dallas-Fort Worth pool rather than a new build, which means the interesting part of the job is integrating hardware that was never designed to talk to anything.
Older pads usually need actuators added to manual valves, a compatible variable-speed pump, and a relay panel with enough capacity for the circuits you want. We evaluate what can stay and what has to change before recommending a controller, so you are not buying a system your hardware cannot use.
We install and configure mainstream residential automation, including Pentair IntelliCenter. Selection depends on the equipment already on the pad, the number of circuits, and whether you want spa control, lighting scenes, or feature sequencing.
Replacing an old incandescent light with a color LED fixture is one of the most visible, least invasive upgrades available. LEDs draw a fraction of the power, last far longer, and give you fixed colors or slow color shows. Multiple fixtures can be synchronized so the pool changes as one.
We extend lighting past the waterline: uplighting on waterfall stone, path and step lighting for safety, and lighting under bar counters and pergolas so the backyard is usable after dark.
Automation makes low-speed, long-duration filtration practical because you are not walking outside to change anything. That schedule is what actually captures the savings a variable-speed pump promises.
We commission the system, name the circuits in plain language, build your daily schedules, and walk you through the app before we leave. A controller nobody understands is a controller nobody uses.
Every project starts with a free on-site visit in Fort Worth or anywhere in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. We look at the shell, the plumbing, and the equipment pad before quoting anything, so the written estimate reflects the actual pool instead of a phone guess.
FAQ
Straight answers on cost, timeline, materials, and what to expect.
Yes. Most of our automation installs are retrofits. The controller usually needs a compatible variable-speed pump and valve actuators, and older manual pads may need a new relay panel, but the pool itself does not have to be remodeled.
Yes. Modern controllers connect to your home network and expose pump, heat, lighting, and feature control through a phone app, including from away from home.
For most owners, yes. LED fixtures use a fraction of the electricity, last considerably longer, and add color. The fixture swap is usually straightforward on an existing niche.
It does. Automated freeze protection runs the pump automatically when air temperature drops below a set point, which protects plumbing and the pump from freeze damage without you being home.
We install mainstream residential systems including Pentair IntelliCenter, and choose based on your existing equipment, the number of circuits needed, and whether spa and water feature control is involved.
